Fernando Escartín and Paco Giner new Vuelta a España technical directors?

Having been named as one of the 18 riders listed in a French Senate Commission report in July for having tested positive for EPO at the 1998 Tour de France, Vuelta a España technical director Abraham Olano was stood down by race organisers Unipublic. Spanish sports daily AS are reporting that Fernando Escartín and Paco Giner are set to replace Olano and will share the role of technical director.
