Chinese rider given 2-year ban for attack on Swiss

The Chinese rider kicked out of the Tour of Hainan for attacking Swiss national team staff has been banned from professional cycling for two years, Chinese cycling chiefs said.

Wang Xin, his Keyi Look team and three of their staff were punished for what the Chinese Cycling Association called the “violent incident”. Race organizers on the southern Chinese island had already said that Wang and Keyi Look would never be allowed back and now the CCA has taken further action following the extraordinary scenes that saw Wang at one point grab a bicycle pump as a weapon last Friday.
