Doping

Valentin tested positive for Heptaminol on 6 June 2006. The UCI summary of 'Decisions on Anti-Doping Rule Violations made in 2006' states "disqualification and ineligibility for 6 months". [1] However, the positive result was blamed on a medicine that the team doctor prescribed for varicose veins. [2]
