UCI will release the results of the investigation shortly.

The cycling anti-doping organization CADF, independent of the International Cycling Union (UCI), must quickly make the conclusions of the investigation into Remco Evenepoel's crash in the Tour of Lombardy available. The president of the UCI, David Lappartient, insisted on this in a video conference with the Belgian media. He stressed that the UCI is especially vigilant about the transmission of data.
"The investigation is complete, they are finishing the report"
"The CADF has conducted a survey and also interviewed people. Since they are independent, I have no conclusions. Normally, the conclusions have to be quick," explained Lappartient. "The investigation has been completed, they are finishing the report. I don't have any more information at the moment."
Lappartient emphasizes that for the UCI the most important element would be the possible transmission of data during the race. "The goal of the UCI is to give all riders equal opportunities to ride. When data is sent, it must be shared publicly, as UCI rules are required."
Lappartient talks about physical parameters that indicate whether a rider is in good shape, such as wattages that are being pedaled, heart rate rhythms and other data that a team can use.
For the UCI president, Remco Evenepoel is "a great champion who we would like to see in competition again next year". "He won all the stage races he participated in this year. I hope the same for him next year".
In August, an investigation was opened into Evenepoel following images in which sports director Davide Bramati took an object from Evenepoel's back pocket after it had fallen. According to Deceuninck-Quick Step, it was a small bottle with nutritional supplements.

Let's update what Lappartient said. CN have a translation of parts of the interview. On the investigation:
Possibly worth bearing in mind here that the CADF completed an investigation into Astana and nobody knew nothing about it until some naughty rascal leaked it during the UCI's spat with the CADF over the ITA.
This fall in the same category as the UAE rider at the Giro trying to hide something. Or the Movistar mechanics trying to pick up the pieces of a broken bike. Lol.UCI will release the results of the investigation shortly.

Good. There obviously wasn’t going to be any other conclusion as there was no way to prove anything. Move on.
Weren't they also supposed to be investigating some kind of illicit data transfer? Not hearing anything about that.
When they chucked the Froome case so many were screaming their heads off for the actual report to be released. They chuck the Evenapoel case and ... all is good in the world, it's the right decision, well done chaps, nothing to see here, move right along.
As has been said so many times, there's one rule for the riders we've got a hate on round here, there's other rules for the rest.

One was an actual positive test. This is some conspiracy that nuts on twitter were yelling about.
The difference is evidence.

Because testing positive is the same as someone emptying your pocket. Makes sense.
And while your post is comically off-base, I will say that its obviously not in the UCI’s interest as the promotional body for the sport to go after a bright young superstar of the sport, and they are a wholly corrupt body. Nothing they do or say should be taken at face value.
But they had nothing. What are they going to do, ask really strenuously what was in the pocket? No really, what was it? No, come on guys, what did you really have in there? This was never going to go anywhere, whatever the truth of the matter because there was no hard evidence. Just suspicion, and that's not nearly enough.
Whereas with Froome, he was caught dead to rights doping.

Not commenting on Froome, but this "case" against Evenepoel was stupid as *** from the start. And I think I would have enough integrity to say the same thing if it happened to a rider I don't like.
Maybe they thought it was The One Ring, or something like that. Maybe they thought the reason Bramati was so quick to remove was that he knew that now someone else would have to deliver it to the slopes of Mount Doom, and bring an end to sock-meassuring.
as per the other comments above...he failed a test and, as the UCI haven't changed the rules, was and is still in breach of the rules...he was literally given a pass....in those circumstances it's quite right to ask to see why he was given a pass....
Ah, the scourge of sock-measuring! LOL. Or Bramati could be Gollum.
Don't mind me just bringing back the thread back to frontpage for you all. You might need it.
The Giro has a habit recently of being a radioactive freak show.
I expect nothing less this time.

None. Even if he won by 10m it would never be as unbelievable as Dopestrong comeback and destruction of the tour peloton in 99.
