Sinkewitz feeling the force of omerta?

The article on that website says Thursday.

Thanks

Anyways, I´m sure they´ll ban him for a lifetime. Will be interesting to see who´ll be the next positive for HGH in cycling, and when... I suppose it´s extremely widespread in the peloton, Nr 2 to EPO and his mimetics.
I guess they´ve already found it in many, many samples, they just don´t get made public.

He is free to ride. Apparently the HGH test is not reliable enough according to the judge.

There goes years of research into that test?

Veerpalu had his CAS hearing recently so we should get some idea what CAS thinks about the test soon.

This is great news, but I fear CAS will decide against him. And if not, UCI will test him positive again, because they want to do everything they can to get him out of the sport.

Hope he kept on training and finds a team quickly.. He joined Farnsese Vini at beginning of June 2010, and then had a great summer and autumn 2010, with winning an Italina 1.1 race, doing well in many other races, and even riding Lombardia in October 2010. Hope this story will repeat.

It´s a shame that this talent got lost, same for Jaksche, who was dropped out. We see, don´t **** with McQuaid and Verbruggen, unless you´re not called Lance Armstrong and throw them hundreds of thousands dollars in the *** to keep them quiet!!

Just for pure information, he kept training and often still wears Farnese Vini's outfit.

 

[search]

there is a short interview with him on Tuttobiciweb, he also mentions Scinto in there, so I think going back to Farnese Vini is his first option.

I don't know how I feel about this, because a reliable HGH test would be a good thing, but at the same time I feel like Sinky's been given a ridiculously tough time of it compared to many dopers. He's a nice guy, or at least was. A cheat, no doubt about it, mind, but that doesn't stop him being a nice guy.

Maybe Farnese will take him back, but if not then it's the case of NSP if he's lucky, or it's low budget Eastern European or Portuguese teams. Or Christina Watches, of course!

After being cleared of all charges, Sinkewitz finally found a new team. He's riding for Meridiana -Kamen, now.

Podium today.

This short comeback was impressive, especially his sixth in Coppa Sabatini.
If someone comes back like this, after 1,5 yrs without any racing, one can imagine he still could be Top10 in the Ardennes, Basque Country, and other races.
His case still will go to CAS, even though he presently is free to race due to first instance decision by a German court. I fear CAS will ban him again, now the question is if he really gets life time. His first ban was reduced from 2 to 1 year, so it will probably be life time or eight years; if CAS don´t find him guilty, it´s due to doubts about the HGH test, and normally, this test is considered as reliable. CAS cases oftenly take a long time to be finished, so he will race as long as possible (with Meridiana, maybe he gets a ProConti contract over the winter, which I hope).
The questions are: what will CAS do? Will UCI test him positive again?
