No UCI points for riders coming off suspension.

"The UCI took the decision to disqualify riders who are returning from bans from scoring points toward the team rankings for two years following their return from a anti-doping rule violation. The rule was ratified by the Pro Cycling Council in Copenhagen last autumn." Am I alone in having missed this? This will make it a harder decision on the part of teams to give riders who have "done their time" another chance. I suppose some will see that as unfair, others as just part of the price an offender has to pay.
