Komunikat Darii Pikulik w sprawie zawieszenia za niestawienie się 3 razy na kontrolach dopingowych.
Szkoda, że temat zniknięcia Darii nie został w żaden sposób poruszony w przyjacielskim wywiadzie dla Kanału Zero 2 miesiące temu...

Great advert for missing tests rather than risk testing +ve.
Rider able to race despite her infraction.
18 month retro sanction is rather ridiculous given she raced multiple times during it.
Michaela Drummond (4th) denied podium in Vuelta CV Feminas.

🇫🇷 Bassons on why he forgave 🇺🇸 Armstrong
🗣️ "The primary reason why I met him is that a few years earlier, Pantani died. He died alone in a room after falling into drug addiction because he tested positive and was rejected by the cycling world.”

Why did Coe not give more detail on what this "considerable progress" is in the fight against Kenyan doping?
Also - if the battle is being won, shouldn't we see other nationalities (and agents) better represented on the podiums?

Imagine racing in the 90s at the highest level and claiming not having known about EPO. I was 18 back in 1992 when I figured out what the elite does - as a measly amateur! Oh, just 7 years before Fritschy here. GTFO.
Parce qu'à 21 ans je n'avais pas la prétention de penser que les mecs plus forts que moi ne l'étaient que grace au dopage. J'étais qui pour me considérer comme le mètre étalon ?

Panel decided that the low levels found did not provide her with "any significant performance advantage".

🚨BREAKING. The WBC has confirmed that it will take no action against Lawrence Okolie falling his postive PED test on 8th April 2026
The WBC stated that "Mr. Okolie fully cooperated with the WBC’s review and provided extenuating evidence supporting his position that the prohibited substance entered his system as a result of the actions of a third party, without his knowledge or consent. The WBC considered that mitigating evidence, together with Mr. Okolie’s unblemished testing history and cooperation throughout the process when reaching the agreed resolution."
