UCI suspends Gerardo Ulloa for failing 3 doping tests
The current Pan American Champion in XCO and XCC, Gerardo Ulloa, will not be eligible to revalidate his title in 2023 after the sanction that the UCI has just imposed on him for being untraceable in 3 routine doping controls. Something that goes against rule 2.4 of the World Anti-Doping Code and for which he has been imposed a sanction of 1 year and a half without competing.
The 8 times national champion of Mexico and leader of the Massi UCI Team, who will soon turn 27 years old, has made an extensive statement on his social networks where he makes it clear that his sanction is not for any adverse analysis and that he himself signed the sanction imposed by the WADA (World Anti doping Agency) on October 17.
