Jeanson out of Elite Women's race

Star Canadian rider Geneviève Jeanson will not take the start in the Elite Women's road race at the World Championships in Hamilton, Canada, declared unfit to race by the UCI. This morning from 7:30-8:00am the UCI conducted regular health checks for the Dutch, German, and Canadian national teams. Jeanson was found to have a haematocrit level higher than the accepted limit and thus will not be permitted to contest the Elite Women's race.
