Frnk Schleck’s victory at the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Criterium International is to be scrutinised by the UCI to see if he broke competition rules by wearing a Camelbak drinks pack on his stꦰomach to help boost his aerodynamic profile in the decisive final time trial.

Schleck was allowed𝓰 to start the time trial by UCI officials present at the race but he may have broken rule 1.3.033 which says “it is forbidden to wear non-essential items of clothing or items designed to influence the performances of a rider such as reducing air resistance or modifying the body of the rider.”

The UCI confirmed to Cyclingnews that they will study the case in detail and🎃 then decide on opening a disciplinary procedure against Schleck.

Questions about the strange looking bulge under Schleck’s skin suit first circulated on Twitte𒉰r and t♊hen picked up steam when suggested Schleck had broken UCI rule 1.3.033.

The Italian newspaper suggested that the Camelbak could give an advantage of two seconds per kilometre at a speed of 50km/h. Schleck finished seven seconds slower than main rival Vasili Kiryienka (Movistar) in the 7.8km time trial but hung on to win the overall classification by 13 seconds.

“Fränk rode with a Camelbak on his chest. The UCI saw it and didn’t say anything,” the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Leopard Trek press officer Tim Vanderjeugd told L’Equipe.
