2007: Acqua & Sapone–Caffè Mokambo

Scarponi began his 2007 racing season with the March Clásica de Almería, where he exceeded the time limit. He finished fifth in the Vuelta a Murcia and ninth at Tirreno–Adriatico before moving on to the Settimana Internazionale di Coppi e Bartali. Scarponi won the race's second stage, to Faenza, after attacking from the peloton with 1.6 kilometres (0.99 miles) remaining. He entered the final day two seconds behind race leader Luca Pierfelici, who then was dropped, and finished second to Riccardo Riccò in Sassuolo. Scarponi won the overall race by eight seconds over Riccò, who also passed Pierfelici in the general classification. After a fourth-place finish at the Giro d'Oro, Scarponi was second to former teammate Damiano Cunego in the Giro del Trentino; it was his final race of the season.

Scarponi was again implicated in the Operación Puerto case, meeting with the Italian National Olympic Committee (CONI) in Rome on 1 May about his apparent involvement in the investigation. A week later, one day after compatriot Ivan Basso admitted his involvement in Operación Puerto as the rider code-named "Birillo", Scarponi confirmed at another meeting with CONI that he was "Zapatero" and "Il Presidente". On 15 May, CONI requested suspensions for both riders; the request was granted the following day. Scarponi received an 18-month ban in July (effective on 15 May, the day of the CONI ban request), reduced from the normal two-year suspension due to his cooperation. In March 2008, after an appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), his ban was lengthened to 21 months; allowing for Scarponi's periods of inactivity, however, he was eligible to race again on 1 August.

He returned to racing in the Giro dell'Appennino on 3 August, and recorded his best result of the 2008 season (seventh place) in the October Giro dell'Emilia.

2009

Scarponi began his 2009 season with a fifth-place finish in the Vuelta a Andalucía, supporting Davide Rebellin's unsuccessful bid to win the race. After the Italian Trofeo Laigueglia and Giro di Sardegna races in February, he moved on to the Tirreno−Adriatico. Scarponi finished fourth in the fifth-stage time trial, and won the sixth stage in Camerino. Attacking on the climb to the Sassotetto ski resort and brought back to a small group, he outlasted Stefano Garzelli and Ivan Basso on the final climb into Camerino; some gradients were 12 percent. Scarponi avoided trouble in the final stage for his first UCI World Ranking victory, 25 seconds ahead of Garzelli.

He took aim at the Giro d'Italia, where he was a main domestique for team leader Gilberto Simoni, after the Ardennes classics. After pre-race encouragement from team manager Gianni Savio, Scarponi joined the sixth-stage breakaway over the Italian–Austrian border in Mayrhofen. Dropping his final breakaway companion Vasil Kiryienka about 10 kilometres (6.2 miles) from the finish, he soloed to his first Grand Tour stage victory. Scarponi also joined the breakaway on the eighteenth stage as one of a septet of riders who broke clear of a larger group of twenty-five with 15 kilometres (9.3 miles) left to race; they contested a final sprint for Scarponi's stage win, his second of the Giro. He finished 31st in the final general-classification standings. After the Giro d'Italia, Scarponi signed a one-year contract extension with the team until the end of 2010. He rode a series of one-day races during the second half of the season, with top-ten finishes in the Prueba Villafranca de Ordizia (ninth), the Coppa Ugo Agostoni (sixth), and the Gran Premio Industria e Commercio di Prato (seventh). Scarponi was selected for the UCI Road World Championships in Mendrisio, Switzerland, but did not finish the road race.

2010

Scarponi's fourth-place finish in the 2010 Giro d'Italia was his first Grand Tour top-ten finish.

Scarponi began 2010 with top-ten finishes in the Giro di Sardegna (seventh), and the Classica Sarda (ninth) in February, before attempting to retain his Tirreno−Adriatico title. He took the race lead with a fourth-stage victory, attacking with Vincenzo Nibali before dropping Nibali on the run-in to Chieti. Scarponi then lost time to Stefano Garzelli on each of the next two stages, and went into the final day just two seconds ahead. Garzelli's You have called {{Contentious topics}}.

Scarponi made his début with the team at the Giro di Sardegna, where he won the final stage after a late attack; he finished in fourth place overall, missing out on the podium by eleven seconds. His next race was Tirreno–Adriatico; he was seen as a contender for the race but not an overall favourite, due to his relatively weak performances in time trials. After losing time in the race-opening team time trial, Scarponi won the fourth stage of the race to Chieti; along with five other riders, he went clear of the field on the final climb and with teammate Damiano Cunego also in the move to control the pace, Scarponi was able to pull further clear and despite fading towards the end, he held on for victory by a few bike lengths ahead of Cunego. He finished third on the penultimate stage, and ultimately finished third overall behind Cadel Evans and Robert Gesink, while also winning the points classification for amassing the highest number of points during stages at intermediate sprints and stage finishes.

Scarponi put in a notable performance at Milan–San Remo, the first Monument classic of the season. With the lead group a minute up the road, after missing a split in the field, Scarponi attacked on the Cipressa and was able to bridge the gap to the lead group. He remained up-front with the group until the finish, where he finished in sixth place – ultimately, his best result in the race. Scarponi then competed in the Volta a Catalunya several days later, finishing second in the overall standings behind Alberto Contador. Prior to the Giro del Trentino, Scarponi trained at altitude at Mount Etna, where his room was searched by Italian police. Scarponi won the Giro del Trentino; he broke clear with Thomas Voeckler on the final climb of the second stage, and the duo remained clear to the end, with Voeckler winning the sprint but Scarponi took the lead overall. He maintained the lead for the rest of the race, winning it for the first time. After the completion of the race, he reconnoitred more stages for Giro d'Italia, studying the stages due to be held in the Dolomites.

Scarponi finished eighth on the stage, but praised his team, mentioning Alessandro Petacchi in particular, for their hard work at the front of the race for much of the day. He reached the halfway point of the Giro in fifth position, 88 seconds behind race leader Contador. Before the second rest day of the race, there was a triumvirate of high-mountain, summit finishes in the Dolomites (stages thirteen to fifteen), at the Grossglockner in Austria, Monte Zoncolan and Gardeccia [it].

Scarponi was an early attacker on the first of these, but was unable to make much ground; Contador finished second to José Rujano on the stage, and padded his lead by almost two minutes – Scarponi moved into third overall, trailing by three-and-a-quarter minutes. At the Zoncolan, Scarponi initially followed Igor Antón and Contador up the climb, but was not able to hold onto their pace, and as a result, was overtaken by Nibali, who had approached from the group trailing behind. Scarponi lost another fifty seconds to Contador, and fell to fourth place overall, as Antón moved ahead of him. Scarponi was much closer to Contador on the Gardeccia climb, losing just fourteen seconds; however, he finished well ahead of both Antón and Nibali, and moved into second place in the overall classification. With Contador so far clear, much of the race's focus shifted to the battle for second position between Scarponi and Nibali. The climbing time trial of stage 16 saw Scarponi lose just four seconds to Nibali as he tried to limit his losses ahead of the final stage test against the clock. Nibali closed in by 13 seconds – to 34 seconds – on stage 19, but lost the ground he had gained the following day as he was gapped by the Scarponi–Contador group, losing 22 seconds up to the finish at Sestriere. While a lesser time trialist than Nibali, Scarponi lost only ten seconds over the 26-kilometre (16 mi) distance, comfortably sealing second overall by forty-six seconds; he deemed himself to be "satisfied" with his overall performance over the Giro, despite finishing over six minutes behind Contador.

Scarponi then moved on to the Tour of the Basque Country, where he was part of the lead group on the final climb of the third stage to Eibar, before fading down to seventh place on the stage.

The race's penultimate stage, was also its queen stage; five categorised climbs were on the parcours, the last two of which being the first-category Mortirolo Pass and the Cima Coppi super-category Stelvio Pass, where the stage finished atop. On the Stelvio, Ryder Hesjedal lifted the pace to such an intensity that only Joaquim Rodríguez and Scarponi could follow. Inside the final 5 kilometres (3.1 miles), Scarponi launched forward, and was closely followed by Rodríguez, with no movement from Hesjedal. Rodríguez managed to catch and pass Scarponi for fourth on the stage, but with Thomas De Gendt closing in by nearly four minutes after winning the stage, Scarponi held an advantage of just under half a minute, going into the final time trial. De Gendt was expected to take the podium placing due to him being more proficient in the discipline than Scarponi. De Gendt was first to take to the stage, recording a time of 34' 07" – good enough for a fifth-place stage finish – and was more than enough to move ahead of Scarponi, who recorded a time of exactly 35 minutes. Therefore, Scarponi finished fourth overall with Hesjedal taking the overall win.

After the Giro d'Italia, Scarponi signed a one-year extension to his contract – signing until the end of the 2013 season – before he then decided to focus on the Tour de France, a race he had not contested since 2004. Scarponi lost over two minutes on the sixth stage, after being delayed by an incident that became known as the "Metz Massacre", where numerous riders hit the tarmac. Trailing by over ten minutes after the ninth stage time trial, Scarponi featured in the following day's breakaway. After the group broke apart on the Col du Grand Colombier, Scarponi was one of five riders that remained clear to the end of the stage, but finished second behind Thomas Voeckler at the finish in Bellegarde-sur-Valserine. Scarponi was not a factor in the second part of the race, and ultimately finished in 24th overall, almost an hour down on winner Bradley Wiggins.

Scarponi was temporarily suspended by his team in November 2012 after he admitted performing tests with Michele Ferrari, a doctor whose name has been linked to numerous cases of doping in cycling. His salary at the time was disclosed, which was €700,000 a year. The Italian National Olympic Committee (CONI) requested a three-month ban for Scarponi, along with Giovanni Visconti, for working with Ferrari; this was finalised on 12 December 2012, along with a €10,000 fine, backdated to 1 October 2012. This meant that Scarponi was able to race again from the start of the 2013 season.

The 2013 Volta a Catalunya final general classification podium; Scarponi was third, behind Dan Martin and Joaquim Rodríguez, respectively.

Despite being cleared to race, Scarponi did not start his season until the very end of February, finishing tenth at the Gran Premio Città di Camaiore. He had two placings inside the top ten at Paris–Nice, before moving on to the Volta a Catalunya. Scarponi had been fifth going into the final stage in Barcelona, but he bridged across a 20-second gap to reach three race leaders. There, he remained and ultimately finished the stage in fourth position; a 21-second gap to the peloton enabled him to move up two places into third overall, passing Nairo Quintana and Bradley Wiggins. After contesting the Giro del Trentino, Scarponi continued his warmup to the Giro d'Italia with his fourth top-ten finish at Liège–Bastogne–Liège, finishing in fifth place after missing in a sprint with Alejandro Valverde and Carlos Betancur.

He then focused on the Giro d'Italia where he again led You have called {{Contentious topics}}. You probably meant to call one of these templates instead:

He only breached the top ten in stage results once during the first half of the race, but never dropped lower than sixth after the eighth stage; he ultimately finished fourth overall, the same place as he finished in 2010 and 2012. After competing in the Tour de Suisse, Scarponi went on to compete in the National Road Race Championships, held on the course of the Trofeo Melinda. Scarponi was part of a three-man move that stayed clear until the end of the race, along with Ivan Santaromita and Davide Rebellin; Scarponi was able to get the better of Rebellin in the finish, but was out-sprinted by Santaromita who went on to win the tricolour jersey. Scarponi then continued his progression towards the Vuelta a España, by competing in the Tour de Pologne.

Scarponi finished 15th overall in the Vuelta a España, taking a best stage placing of second on the fifteenth stage at Peyragudes; he had been part of a 28-man breakaway, and was one of two riders to successfully remain clear of the peloton – he finished more than three minutes down on stage winner Alexandre Geniez. Thereafter, Scarponi won the delayed Gran Premio della Costa Etruschi, his first success since his belated 2011 Giro d'Italia victory; he had attacked from the lead group with one kilometre (0.62 mi) to go and led home a rare 1–2–3 success for his team, as Diego Ulissi and Filippo Pozzato completed the podium. Scarponi was selected for the UCI Road World Championships in Florence, Italy, where he finished sixteenth – and second-best Italian behind Vincenzo Nibali – in the road race.

He was selected as the team leader for the Giro d'Italia, and was named as one of the pre-race favourites for the general classification; Scarponi was "optimistic" of his chances at the race. He crashed on stage six, losing almost two minutes, and he lost another ten minutes two stages later, as the team leadership started to move towards Fabio Aru; Scarponi ultimately withdrew from the race on stage sixteen.

Scarponi led his team at the Vuelta a España, taking three top ten stage finishes, but missed out on a top ten placing overall, finishing in eleventh place.

Scarponi started the 2017 season by competing in the Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana and Volta ao Algarve races in February, finishing in the top twenty of them both. He then contested Tirreno–Adriatico, finishing fifteenth overall, before moving on to the Tour of the Alps, the successor to the Giro del Trentino with its additional foray into Austria. On the opening stage, Scarponi formed part of an elite group that had moved clear on the final climb in Hungerburg, Austria. Scarponi had the strongest finish, as he out-sprinted the remaining members of the group, taking his first individual victory since his 2013 Gran Premio della Costa Etruschi success. He finished the race in fourth position overall.

At around 08:00 local time, Scarponi was riding along the SP 362 provincial road (Via dell'Industria), one kilometre (0.62 miles) from the centre of his home town of Filottrano, when he was hit at a road junction (via Schiavoni) by an Iveco Daily van, driven by 57-year-old local craftsman Giuseppe Giacconi. According to statements made to the carabinieri (Italian police), Giacconi did not see Scarponi. He was known to Scarponi's father Giacomo, who said: "We know each other well. I've lost a son, but I'm thinking of him too." The criminal investigation culminated in mid-February 2018, after Giacconi died of cancer.

In the days following Scarponi's death, tributes were made for him at professional races, first at the Tour of Croatia the next day with a minute's silence, and then at Liège–Bastogne–Liège the day after with a round of applause. In both races riders wore black armbands. Alejandro Valverde won Liège–Bastogne–Liège and gave his prize money to Scarponi's family. Former teammate and close friend Vincenzo Nibali dedicated his overall victory of the Tour of Croatia to Scarponi. A minute's silence was also observed before the Juventus–Genoa Serie A football match in Turin. His funeral took place on 25 April at Filottrano's football stadium, attended by an estimated 5,000 mourners. The service was officiated by cardinal Edoardo Menichelli.

As a consequence, Scarponi was retroactively promoted one position in the standings.
  2. Scarponi was promoted to fourth overall, following the removal of points scored by Alberto Contador, who had initially finished third overall.
