Few interesting bits in there. Google translate makes it sound quite dramatic

That seemed really honest and.. yes, quite dramatic. Couldn't tell from the google translate if he admitted to dope before 2008. I read it as he admitted he had.

It's a bit odd as he sort of puts the blame on Ricco. Or says he did it with Ricco.

Piepoli was my favourite rider :oops: not sure if i got fooled or if it was always as blatantly obvious as the tour him & Ricco got busted but won't get fooled again

Meanwhile Ricco;

Surely a low ball from Piepoli, Ricco is such a soft target these days. He seems to be responsible for everything from the death of Christ onwards. I'm surprised Lance didn't pin it all on him as well.

As big a tw*t as he as been I really do fear for Ricco's future. Possibly a FVDB or Pantani ending to this story.

He's no self-pitying enough. He's more likely to end up being like one of the parasites that sold Pantani his cocaine.
