The UCI has handed Matteo Rabottini a two-year suspension for a positive test he had last August for EPO. The news was announced on Tuesday.
The Italian denied taking EPO in regards to the positive test taken on August 8. Once the news broke, his then employers Neri Sottoli suspended him provisionally on September 12.
His suspension began on August 7, 2014 and he will be ineligible to compete until May 6, 2016. His suspension was reduced by three months for cooperating with anti-doping authorities, in accordance with article 10.6.1.
