That's pretty much insane by Scarponi. Not just dropping Vince but absolutely sprinting up those 2 really steep sections and never letting up at all for the whole climb.

The simple answer is yes

MMh, so every time somebody wins a stage now you plan to open a thread?

Every rider that wants to win TA is prepared for TA. Nibali, Scarponi etc.

Perhaps a 2 second search of the internet would answer the question you posed for the OP starting this thread.

Considering it's title and raising the question of old tricks.

The dude was implicated in a doping scandal.

di luca and il falco were there to bring him his dope!

 

[Ferminal]

The Cobra would have him for lunch.

 

[maltiv]

Of course. But don't worry - he'll only be competitive in Italy.

 

[Hugh Januss]

He looked a little more human today.

Not only implicated, admitted to it and served a suspension.

First, a google search takes more than 2 second.

Then, what does that have to do with anything? It's funny how in some cases a former doper is then declared clean (Millar, Zülle) and proof that clean riding is possible, others then are declared dirty forever. Just because he was caught doesn't mean somebody that wasn't caught is clean, the chances that he is clean are as big as that any other rider that was never caught is clean. Minimal in targeted races IMO...

Where is the "what is Gasparotto on" thread?

How about the what is Astana on? Seriously, the whole team looks doped to the eyeballs right now.

And cyclists have never re offended in their lives! Come on Laura, get real!

Easy there turbo, she is not making excuses for him. Take a breath and go back and read the exchange again.

From what i understand, she is saying we shouldn't judge him so harshly that he is back on the PED's because he has served a suspension.

i don't feel that's completely right.

She's saying that there was a lot more linking Scarponi to doping than mere implication.

Why on earth if you were a pro would allow yourself to be in that photo?

 

[Epicycle]

Raise your hand if you've never been the same since you left Ferrari.
