Eurosport will reportedly keep using cycling commentator Robbie McEwen despite controversy over him using a homophobic slur live on air.
McEwan, 49, enjoyed a distinguished career on the bike, winning the Tour de France points classification three times. Once considered the world's fastest sprinter, he retired in 2012 following the Tour of California.
But his voice has remained prominent in the sport, regularly commentating on the Tour de France. And he's currently part of the Eurosport team covering the Giro d’Italia, widely considered the sport's second biggest event. However, the Australian, who also competed at three Olympic Games, came under fire for using the term "fudge packer" during Tuesday's coverage.
