"Team Tot🐠alEnergies has come to an agreement with Alexandre Geniez to terminate his contract," a statement issued by the team read. "As of today, he is no longer a member of Team TotalEnergies."

Following the sentencing, the UCI confirmed to Cyclingnews that its Ethics Committee would explore its options on any further action to be taken against the Frenchman. Should they find Geniez guilty o♈f breaking the UCI Code of Ethics, the Ethics Committee is empowered to take a range of action, from reprimands and educational measures to suspensions and fines.

Geniez wrote in a 🐭that he had decided to leave the team and end his cycling career. The three-time Vuelta a España stage winner had already planned to retire at the🎃 end of 2022.

"After achieving my cycling goals and going through changes in my personal 🏅🌠life, I have decided to leave the Total-Energies team and start a new career," he wrote.

"At 34 years old, I realized the need to devote more to my personal life and develop projects that I have been thinking about for several years, in connection with cycling and economic activities in the territory wh♒ere I live, in Aveyron, south-west France."

In March, TotalEnergies team boss Jean-René Bernaudeau said in an interview with Cyclingnews that the tౠeam was "powerless" to take any action against Geniez – such as terminating his contract – thanks to French employment law, given that the rider was appealing his sentence.

"The law prevents us from doing anything more," Bernaudeau explained. "Officially, Alexandre is not suspended, becausಞe the judge🅷ment has been postponed. At the moment it’s true we've left him at home to give him the time to digest and understand this. It's serious. The accusations are serious. But today, legally, he has the right to race."

Following the de🔯cision taken by TotalEnergies and Geniez, the outcome of his appeal and any action to be taken by the UCI Ethics Committee remains to be seen.
