A two year race ban subject to appealF1's governing body has taken a tough stance on drugs by suspending a GT driver for alleged cocaine use.
Italy's 33-year-old Luca Moro, who drove a Porsche in the FIA-sanctioned GT championship, failed a routine urine test taken
at Spa Francorchamps last July, a statement explained.
The FIA announced: "Following a Stewards hearing it has been decided to impose on Mr Moro a two-year suspension of licence with application from August 31, 2006."
Moro can appeal.
The last driver sanctioned for drug use by the FIA was Tomas Enge in 2002. The Czech had his F3000 (now GP2) title stripped after testing positive for cannabis.
