What it says on the tin.

He's had problems for years and is allegedly under investigation, so no surprise really.
It's a little like wrestling a gorilla. You don't quit when you're tired. You quit when the gorilla is tired.

    He was an exciting rider to watch but hopefully not for the wrong reasons. It seems he was a bit of a handful to manage, as well. Maybe he will make a comeback of some kind on the South American scene in the future. He seemed happiest there in between placements with his numerous European teams.

    The anti-doping advocates in South America dont want him back. They've got enough of a fight on their hands as it is, trying to highlight how much doping is going on/lack of effort to seriously tackle it. For example, there was no testing carried out at all, at the recent Mexican nats.
