Discussion
USADA said:
At the end of the 2000 season George Hincapie asked Lance Armstrong to introduce him to Dr. Ferrari.
Hincapie felt that he had been putting in a great deal of work but was not getting the results that he wanted.
Armstrong said that he would contact Ferrari on George’s behalf.
Ferrari was invited to the opening training camp for the 2001 season, which took place either in late 2000 or in early 2001 in Austin, Texas.
Ferrari was introduced to the riders present by Johan Bruyneel.
Bruyneel explained that each rider would be able to have an individual meeting with Ferrari and if the rider wanted to hire Ferrari he would have to pay Ferrari a percentage of the rider’s salary.
George Hincapie was told at the camp that the annual cost to him for Ferrari’s services would be $15,000.00.
Christian Vande Velde learned that Lance Armstrong was working with Ferrari and that Ferrari’s nickname was “Schumi,” a reference to the famous race car driver, Michael Schumacher who drove for Team Ferrari.

Armstrong was working with a Doctor called Ferrari who used the nickname 'Schumi'.
It is the only reference to Schumacher in the entire document.
