Doping admission
Chiotti admitted to doping in order to win the 1996 World Championships in an interview with French magazine Vélo Vert on 23 April 2000.[2] He admitted to spending up to US$6000 per year for EPO. He consequently renounced his World title during a press conference in Paris on 25 May 2000.[3] The official UCI results were amended to reflect Thomas Frischknecht as the winner of the 1996 World Champion title.
