A crisis brewing?

Is the doping issue about to erupt big-time in the Pro Tour ?
There are several top riders that could confess or be implicated soon. The
UCI or whomever should create an amnesty program to help manage the fall
out. Riders confessing would be penalized much less, within a given
time-frame. Otherwise, the old system of sweeping it under the rug, will
prevail.

T-Mobile may be reconsidering their Sponsorship.
T-Mobile to reconsider sponsorship
Meanwhile, only days after telling Cyclingnews that T-Mobile was committed
to its sponsorship of cycling until the end of 2010, Frommert told
spiegel.de on Tuesday that "right now the question doesn't arise but we will
address the question and can't give a guarantee for eternity." The firm will
"come to a very clear decision" within the next few days as to whether to
honour its sponsorship contract.

One thing that the sponsor and the team will have to consider is the
position of directeur sportif Rolf Aldag, who rode for Telekom from 1993 to
2005 and has claimed to know nothing about doping within the team. "We will
hold intensive talks with Rolf in the next few days," Frommert told
Süddeutsche Zeitung, adding "Of course we know that Rolf Aldag is also
involved."

Gerolsteiner

Gerolsteiner's sponsorship contract runs through the 2008 season, but
according to the Süddeutsche Zeitung, the firm is already considering either
ending the contract early or not extending it, because of the ongoing doping
problems associated with cycling.
