On October 8, 2026, the International Testing Agency (ITA) announced that Kyrylo Tsarenko, a rider from the Solution Tech NIPPO Rali team, had been suspended from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026. The suspension followed repeated violations of anti-doping rules. Specifically, Tsarenko submitted his location declarations late three times within a one-year period, which the ITA deemed a breach of regulations. As a result, all of his competition results between July and December 2025 were annulled. Tsarenko has since resumed racing, and his contract with Solution Tech NIPPO Rali was reinstated in July 2026. However, the explanations for the suspension were only communicated more than a year after the incidents occurred. The ITA declined to provide further comment on the case at this time. Tsarenko’s suspension came after a strong period in his career. On April 9, 2025, he won the third stage of the Tour de Hainan, which marked his most significant victory to date. He went on to secure the overall classification in the event, outperforming several top riders from the WorldTour, the highest level of professional cycling. In the months that followed, he continued to win races, including at the Tour de Kyushu. However, due to the suspension, his results from July 2025 onward were not officially recognized. After his suspension, Tsarenko took a break from racing but continued to train independently. He eventually returned to competition in July 2026, resuming his contract with Solution Tech NIPPO Rali. His comeback was successful, with notable performances such as a sixth-place finish at the Tour de Sibiu and three victories in Turkey. Despite these results, it remains difficult to assess whether his performance was affected by the suspension or if there was a change in his level of competition. The delay in submitting his location declarations has raised questions about whether the issue was due to repeated carelessness or if it concealed potential doping violations. However, the ITA has not provided further details, and the situation remains unclear. The case highlights the importance of compliance with anti-doping protocols and the consequences of failing to meet them.
