McQuaid UCI rival demands change
Cookson described McQuaid’s nomination by the Malaysian federation, which was made public last week after his failure to be nominated by Cycling Ireland and the legal challenge to his Swiss nomination, as a “farce”. The nomination came after the closing date, but McQuaid insisted no rules had been broken.
“Any sport will struggle to expect its competitors to respect the rules when they are bent, broken or altered in the president’s office,” British Cycling president Cookson wrote.
