  1. On the ITV commentary Matt Rendell's views about Rasmusson cycling under a
    'flag of convenience' -he raced for two years on a Mexican licence and one
    year on a licence from Monaco- were aired. It was suggested that he rode
    under these because neither organisation had subjected him to doping tests
    - essential if you're going to catch someone that cheats outside of races.

    Does the chap have a good reason for not riding on a Danish licence? Did
    he live in Mexico and Monaco in the last three years? I can see the point
    in having a licence from the place where you live.

    His wife is Mexican, and he spends a fair amount of time there. Don't
    know about Monaco

    He's married to a Mexican, and as I understand it his main residence is now
    in Monaco.

    Clears that one up then - I can see why the bloke is a little [censored] at
    everyone.
