El italiano Marco Pantani (Mercatone-Uno) no tomará la salida en la Vuelta a Austria que comienza el lunes. El Pirata ha causado baja debido a las secuelas de la bronquitis que le aquejó en la decimosexta etapa del Giro de Italia 2002.
El doble vencedor del Giro y campeón del Tour de Francia en 1998 deberá comparecer el próximo 17 de junio ante la Comisión de Disciplina de la Federación italiana de ciclismo, por el asunto de dopaje del Giro 2001.
Una jeringuilla con restos de insulina fue encontrada en su habitación en el hotel de Montecatini. La Comisión ha anulado la decisión en dos ocasiones.
Voor degenen wiens Spaans wat minder is:
The much hyped start of Marco Pantani in the Bank Tour of Austria did not eventuate as the Mercatone Uno rider pulled out before the first stage time trial, won by Mapei's Fabian Cancellara. Pantani was there in spirit, with his race wheels there and hotel room booked, but that was all the organisers saw of him.
The all too brief reason given was “Pantani not present, due to a fever.” This did not make tour organiser Rolf Slavik very happy: “This is a scandal. A complete scandal. He should have been able to notify us at least. But nothing, nothing at all - he has made us look stupid.”
“Unfortunately, we can do nothing. If someone like Pantani says he's sick, then he is sick. Regardless of whether we agree or not,” added Slavik.
Pantani's team director Marino Amadori indicated that there could be other reasons. “Marco retired from the Giro due to heavy bronchitis,” he said. “At this time, due to other affairs, he does not have the necessary focus to race.”
There was also some bad luck for Austrian Road Champion Jürgen Pauritsch (Team Nürnberger) in the opening time trial. At the finish of the 11 km event, he crashed and broke his collarbone.
