Pevenage pays fine to settle charges

Rudy Pevenage has settled an investigation by Bonn, Germany, prosecutors by paying a fine said to be 25,000 euro. The investigation was looking into charges of fraud and violation of prescription drug laws while Pevenage worked for the T-Mobile Team.

It is a similar settlement to that announced last April with Jan Ullrich, who is said to have made a "six-digit" payment.

Pevenage, 55, is now working as directeur sportif for the US-based Continental Team Rock Racing.
