It was to Malpensa, yesterday afternoon, and was salting on the airplane in order to return to Pescara when the telephone is played.

ROME 27 February 2008 - Another storm is battering Danilo Di Luca. The Italian Olympic Committee (CONI) antidoping authority has requested that the cyclist be brought before a judge. The affair stems from an antidoping control performed after the Monte Zoncolan stage, the 17th in the 2007 Giro d'Italia, which showed levels that CONI inspectors considered to be "abnormal". The winner of the last Giro, previously suspended for three months following links to Dr. Santuccione on the eve of the World Championships in Stuttgart, risks a two-year suspension for violating article 2.2 of the WADA Code.
THE ACCUSATION - The CONI antidoping authority contests that Di Luca received an intravenous drip (of water or physiological solution) in the period between the UCI antidoping test for the Zoncolan stage and the surprise test that the Authority ran on the 2007 Giro winner the same night as Zoncolan. In December the Italian was heard by Ettore Torri, head of the Antidoping authority, who had communicated the results of a report by Professor Cappa, an illustrious hematologist, called upon to explain the alteration detected in the hormonal profiles. According to the specialist, they were caused by a drip the cyclist received after the stage. Di Luca finished the 2007 Giro in first place, with 1'55" over Andy Schleck and 2'25" over Eddy Mazzoleni.
SHATTERED - "It's like a huge stone hitting you from behind and knocking you flat." Fabio Bordonali, LPR team manager, is stunned by the referral, with its request for a two-year suspension, issued by the CONI antidoping authority. "It's a shame because we're coming off an excellent early season," Bordonali continued. "We'll take the necessary steps, even though I'm waiting for the official statement. I called Danilo, and as you would imagine, he is shattered. This will certainly lead to a suspension," he concluded, "because I have to protect the other nineteen cyclists on the team."
