Franck Bonnamour provisionally suspended by UCI due to "unexplained abnormalities in his Biological Passport"

Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale Team's Franck Bonnamour has been provisionally suspended by the UCI after what they say were "unexplained abnormalities in his Biological Passport."

"The Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) informs that French rider Franck Bonnamour has been provisionally suspended in accordance with the UCI Anti-Doping Rules due to unexplained abnormalities in his Biological Passport," reads an official announcement by the sport's governing body. "The UCI will not comment further while the proceedings are ongoing."

For those unaware, a biological passport is "an individual electronic record for each rider, in which the results of all doping tests collected as part of the ABP programme over a given period are collated."

Bonnamour most recently rode at the Tour Down Under with a 13th-placed finish on stage 2 being the best of his efforts in Australia.
