Liquigas-Doimo has put its support behind Franco Pellizotti following the International Cycling Union's (UCI) request on Monday for disciplinary action to be taken against the Italian due to irregularities discovered in his biological passport. The Italian squad said they will cooperate with the investigation, but will conduct their own internal investigation into Pellizotti's blood profiles before taking any possible action against him.
