Belgian rider Tom Boonen has been suspended by his Quick Step team following a positive test for cocaine.
The 28-year-old, who won the Paris-Roubaix race for the third time last month, also tested positive for the substance in May 2008.""He is suspended from all activities by the team,"" Quick Step's representative Alessandro Tegner said.
""The test, about two weeks ago, was positive for cocaine and was carried out by the Flemish authorities.""
