Filippo Simeoni is an Italian cyclist. His most important victories were the two stages he won in the Vuelta a España in 2001 and 2003. More than for his prestations, Simeoni is known for his 'rebellious' actions. During the stage win in the Vuelta he stopped just before the finish line and walked across the finish line with his bike in his hands. He did so as a tribute to the victims of the September 11, 2001 attacks. Wikipedia
In February in connection with hearings against Michele Ferrari, Simeoni admitted that he had taken EPO and growth hormone. www.trap-friis.dk/cykling/italy.Simeoni.htm
