The Costa Rican Cycling Federation (FECOCI) issued an official statement that confirms🐬 four “Adverse Analytical Findings” following the anti-doping controls taken during the 48th edition of the Vuelta Ciclista Internacional a Costa Rica, a UCI 2.1 road cycling tour held last December.
“We are just messengers”, said FECOCI’s President Hernán Solano to local newspapers. “The UCI asked us to veri♋fy that the four riders were correctly notified and now it is a process between the riders and the UCI."
Even though the names and details haven’t been revealed yet, a local journali♍st has cited “an unidentifie🙈d official source” saying all four cases - Costa Rican riders - came out with the same adverse result for GW-501516.
