Astana retains elite status
TOUR de France champion Vincenzo Nibali’s Astana team retained its elite status for 2015 following a review by the Licence Commission after being hit by a series of doping affairs, the Kazakh-funded outfit said on Wednesday. “Astana Pro Team has received a 2015 UCI World Tour licence,” Astana said on its Twitter feed. The World Tour licence guarantees its holder direct participation in the top races, including the Tour de France, the Paris-Roubaix classic and the Giro d’Italia. Several Astana riders failed dope tests this season. Kazakh brothers Valentin and Maxim Iglinskiy tested positive for the banned blood booster EPO and trainee Iliya Davidenok also failed a test.
