The Mantova doping investigation is an (as of 2013) ongoing investigation for doping in cycling, centered on the Lampre cycling team, named after the Italian town Mariana Mantovana. In total, 32 persons have been accused of trafficking, prescription, administration and use of prohibited substances, but no verdict has been reached. ==History== In 2010, Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport reported that the Italian police was investigating doping cases that involved 54 persons in the 2008 and 2009 seasons. Following that news, Italian cyclists Alessandro Ballan and Mauro Santambrogio, who had left the Lampre team and were riding for , were temporarily pulled from racing by their teams because of this investigation. In April 2011, a list of 32 persons that the prosecution was planning to charge was revealed. After this, Ballan and Santambrogio were again temporarily stopped from racing by their team , missing the 2011 Giro d'Italia. The team also decided to keep all riders and staff mentioned in the Mantova doping investigation out of the 2011 Giro. In May 2011, La Gazetta Dello Sport published details from the Mantova case, including extracts of phone call transcripts where doping was discussed between riders and staff. In July 2013, a preliminary court hearing decided that the case should proceed, with a date set for December 2013; it was then also decided that 27 persons, of which 18 riders, would be on trial. The Italian committee CONI received documents from the prosecutor, and based on that they demanded a two year doping ban for Alessandro Ballan. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mantova doping investigation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
