    Fine ! So Exciting !

    Who first sent the Fax ?

    I would like to congratulate the French Lab, Floyd, the UCI and the Lawyer.
    I don't remember a post-TDF so exciting !
    Do you remember something similar, Benjo ?

    Perhaps 1904, when the Union Vélocipédique de France decided after four
    month of deliberation to disqualify the first four?

    Yes, but according to this the UCI requested it Sunday night in order to

    If that's the case don't you think that they'd want to find a lab they
    trusted? I sure as hell wouldn't trust a lab that leaked the information
    on the A Sample. It's my guess that the sample was tampered with.

    If it's tampered, it doesn't matter which lab they use, it'll laways show
    up positive. But that's my guess, too. I think in 99.9% of all positive
    doping cases it was a tampered probe. We need to trust the athletes and if
    they say they are innocent then they are, period. That would save a lot of
    money on all the dope tests, too. We also need to extend that policy to the
    criminal system.

    Of course, in the first years there was hardly a serious supervision of the
    riders and most of them were immediately accused of fraud. They should
    covered many miles with the assistance of friendly car drivers, who
    motorpaced them, allowed them to have been used cars, to motorpace the, to
    allow them to clung to them or even to hide , which transported them used
    cars which pulled or motorpaced them, or even allowed them to hide in the
    cars. The should have taken short cuts, changed numbers with friendly riders
    to dodge checkpoints, etc., etc. In short: they had done about everthing -
    legal or not legal - to win. Tour director Desgranges knew quite well what
    was going on, but tried to hide it as much as possible. Unfortunately the
    UVF was incensed and investigated it as thouroughly as possible. The
    results was that the four main culprits were disqualified and suspended for
    several years (one of them even for life) with the result that the unknown,
    only 19 year old Henri Cornet was declared winner.

    Are there any other cases in which the winner of the Tour was
    disqualified afterwards?

    The supreme authority was called "Union Vélocipédique de France " LOL !

    Not that I know of, but in 1988 Pedro Delgado was found to be using a
    masking agent (e.g. stuff that would make the real drugs undetectable in a
    control). It was banned by the IOC(or some other org?), but not by the UCI,
    so they couldn't do anything. It ended up on the UCI doping list a few weeks
    after the Tour...

    OK.

    If the UCI asked it before, the game is over for Floyd, I am afraid.

    If the lawyer wants to attack the reliability of the test, then
    stretching out the interval between the A and B samples tests is a good
    way to go. That's why in the Hamilton case, as it turned out, all the
    continuances were on Tyler's side. For those testosterone positives,
    most of the successful appeals have been on technicalities/procedural
    grounds.
