Bjarne Riis has 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:repeated his intention of taking the International Cycling Union (UCI) to court if it does not allow 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alberto Contador to earn points for his team for two years. The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Saxo Bank-Tinkoff team owner caꦍlled the situation “ridiculous”.

Contador is serving a two-year doping-related ban, and will return to riding for the team early next monꦡth. Under UCI rules, points earned by s𒅌uch riders will not count for a team for two years after the rider returns.

Saxo Bank-Tinkoff is in desperate need of points to retain its WorldTour licence in the coming year. It is currently at the bottom of the standings, with only 44 points as compared to Sky Team, who lead the list with 803. He also faces the option of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:si⛦gning additional riders with points, which would be made be possible by the recent inclusion of Tinkoff Bꦆank as a name co-sponsor.

The🔥 UCI has reiterated that any points Contador earns will not count fo💯r the team, and if they continue to uphold that position, “I will go to the sports tribunal CAS. This is ridiculous," Riis told De Telegraaf.

"The UCI would like to do th💞ings in their own interest. It would be better if they did more good thinꦜgs for cycling, instead of fighting with the teams over various things.”
