Andrea Moletta (born 23 February 1979 in Cittadella, Province of Padua) is an Italian professional road bicycle racer for UCI Continental team Miche-Silver Cross.
In March 2007, Moletta crashed badly in the Milan-San Remo race, and it was thought that his season would be over. However, six months later Moletta was recovered and started in the 2007 Vuelta a España.[1]
During the 2008 Giro d'Italia, Moletta's father was caught with Viagra and unidentified fluids, and as result of this, Moletta's team Gerolsteiner withdrew Moletta from racing.[2] Viagra was not banned in competition, so no formal doping charge was filed against Moletta, although the doping authorities (WADA) were looking at the matter.[3] Later it was found that the fluids were the hormone Lutelef, which can be used as a new form of blood doping.[4] Moletta was later cleared from any wrongdoing.[5]
He has previously played for Team Braloworld (2004), Mercatone Uno (2003), and Fassa Bortolo (2001).[6]
Since 2009, Moletta rides for Miche-Silver Cross.[7]
