(ANSA) - Rome, December 10 - The biography of Vincenzo Nibali, Italy's 30-year-old cycling champion and winner of the 2014 Tour de France, has hit bookshelves in Italy.
Nibali's biography is entitled "Di Furore e Lealtà" (Of Fury and Loyalty) and is published by Mondadori.
It comes out at a difficult time for his Astana team, with the International Cycling Union is expected to make a decision Wednesday on whether or not to approve a 2015 racing license for Kazakh outif.
Two team members tested positive for the performance-enhancing drug EPO, and new allegations have arisen that Dr. Michele Ferrari, banned for life from the sport for his role in the Lance Armstrong doping scandal, visited the team in 2013.
