In 2002 UCI sued Festina soigneur Willy Voet for defamation over claims in his book Breaking the Chain that the UCI and Hein Verbruggen had allegedly been involved in some sort of coverup of use of Lidocaine and Laurent Brochard.[1] [2] In 2004 the UCI won the defamation case,[3] and in 2006 won the appeal.[3]
