In a press release from the cycling's governing body, Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI), they said following a request from the UCI ProTour Council (CUPT) on June 17th, the Licenses Commission announced that the procedure opened against Astana to withdraw its license has been provisionally suspended, with immediate effect and for an unspecified length of time.
This suspension will be lifted either at the request of the CUPT if it wishes to reactivate the procedure in question, or if the procedure is permanently dropped.
While the team is in no immediate danger on losing their license, it appears that the case has been left on the shelf and could possibly surface when the the team comes up for renewal.
