The use of a motor on the part of Fabian Cancellara on the classics of the 2010 season remains one of the most popular doping theories in the Cycling world. Indeed, Fabian Cancellara crushed the competition in the spring of 2010, winning the Tour of Flanders et Paris-Roubaix. And the competition was Tom Boonen notably. The Belgian runner returned to this matter during a podcast from The Newspaperimplying that he entertained doubts about the innocence of Fabian Cancellara.

“I have my thoughts on this…”
“JI don't know what's true or not. I have my thoughts on that, but I'll keep that to myself.”he first declared, before returning in more detail to the strange behavior of his rival during the Tour of Flanders 2010. “At one point, I saw him make every effort to get to the right side of the road before turning left. Then he jumped off his bike and grabbed a new one. Three seconds later he was sitting next to me again. I thought to myself: it's strange to be planning a bike change there. Why did this happen? I don't know”he explains.
It's not the only thing that raises doubts “Tommy” : “When we arrived at Ninove, it was quite far from the podium, the press room and the doping control. So everyone always left with their bikes. And from there, back to the buses, when we got out of scene, a bike had disappeared. We (Boonen was second, Gilbert third) took our bikes, while he (Cancellara) stayed on foot to cross everyone. At the time, I didn't think about it, but afterwards. we start to think about it. True or not, after that, I put a bit of a barrier between Fabian and me.”
