Cycling's governing body, the UCI, will move to ban the use of carbon monoxide in the sport, on health grounds, it announced on Thursday.

Previously, the UCI has called for the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) to take a position on carbon monoxide inhalation, after the use of the practice emerged at this year's Tour de France.
