168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Quinn Simmons' suspension by the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Trek-Segafredo team has been lifted and he has begun his off-season tra🦋ining, with team boss Luca Guercilena highlighting the American as an important part of the team's plans for 2021.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Simmons was suspended at the end of September over social media posts, including the use of an emoji with black skin tone, that were labelled "divisive, incendiary, and detrimental" by his team. He was suspended "until further notice,"🤪 with the team stating they would work together with their sponsors "to determine how we will move forward."
Simmons and Guercilena have both confirmed to Cyclingnews that the matter has now been resolved and that b𝔍oth parties are looking ahea♛d to next season.
According to Guercilena, the team clarified their position on the subject to Simmons, but "no further action" was taken. 🌟Further media training will be held during the team's first off-season training camp, which usually takes place in December.
"The situation is solved," Guercilena said, confirming that, "Quinn will attend the team camps and st🐷art the season as normal.
"We are looking into ꦦnext season and have Quinn as one of our top talented riders to perform at a higher level in 2021, focusing on races," ൲he added.
Simmons did not wish to comment on the matter when contacted by Cyclingnews.
The 19-year-old, who jumped straight to the WorldTour this year after winning the junior road race at the Yorkshire World Championships, has begun his preparations for 2021. "Eating season is over. Tꦍime to get back to work," he wrote in a social media post last week on Instagram, witꦬh the hasthtag #roadtoroubaix, indicating that Paris-Roubaix will be a major target.
That race was cancelled this year due to the coronavirus pandemic, but Simmons' suspension, just after he ha🍸d completed Flèche Wallonne, meant he missed out on the rest of what would have been his debut cobbled Cl༺assics campaign.
Simmons also posted a video of himself in the gym with the caption 'starting back from zero, fitness so far away', and has since travelled fꦺrom his home in Durango, Colorado to California to step up his 🌠training.
Simmons was suspended following his response to a post from cycling journalist and commentator José Been about the upcoming US election, in which she asked supporters of Donald Trump to stop fol൲lowing her on Twitter. The American responded by writing "bye", followed by an emoji of a hand with bl🤡ack skin tone waving.
The use of a black emoji by a white ꩲperson online has been repeatedly highlighted as racist, and the term '' has been coined to describe its usage.
Trek-Segafredo moved quickly to announce Simmons' suspension for "conduct unbefitting a💧 Trek athlete," and the rider himself apologised the next day.
"To those who found the color of the emoji racist, I can promise that I did not mean for it to be interpreted that way. I would like to aဣpologize to everyone who found this offensive as I strongly stand against racism in any form," he said in a formal apology. "To anyonꦺe who disagrees with me politically, that is fine. I won’t hate you for it. I only ask the same."
At the time, on the eve of the Giro d'Italia, Guercilena spoke to reporters at the ra🔴ce and said: "It shouldn’t be forgotten that these are the decisions and statements of a boy of 19 years of age, even if there are no excuses. We feel that we need to reflect carefully on the decisions that need to be taken. We♍’ll decide what will be done together with the company, which owns the team."
In their original statement, the team said they would "keep fans and the publ🌸ic informed as to the decisions made in the matter," but so far they have yet to make a public statement on the resolution that has been reached.
