Top-five reactions to Luca Paolini’s suspension for cocaine
On Friday, the UCI announced that Katusha rider Luca Paolini has been provisionally suspended. The suspension comes after a sample collected on July 7 tested positive for cocaine. Paolini still has the right to have his B Sample tested.
Twitter, of course, has provided some levity to this situation. Below are our top five reactions.
To be fair to Paolini he just spent a weekend in Holland. I reckon he should get a clenbuterol pass like people do with positives from China
