Fernando Gaviria.

Colombian cyclist Fernando Gaviria was given a two-month suspended prison sentence and banned from driving for two years by a judge in Monaco on Tuesday after pleading guilty to driving whilst over the legal alcohol limit in October.

According to court reporting in Monaco-Matin, Gaviria was stopped at lunchtime on October 22 of this year for driving dangerously, and was found via breathalyser to have an exhaled air alcohol level of 1.18mg/l – almost five times the legal limit for driving of 0.25mg/l in Monaco.
