Продолжение истории с кровяным допингом у немцев

История не утихла, хотя извинения были произнесены.

Comments on doping by Dr. Bengt Saltin: The German Ski Association is apparently suing the reporters for ARD Television who claimed German skiers and biathletes were doped in a laboratory in Austria. Meanwhile Bengt Saltin, the famous doctor who discovered the effects of blood doping, said to Swedish Television this last Wednesday night that he knew several of the biathletes were doped and that there are at least three laboratories in Austria that are providing performance enhancing blood doping or other means of improving performance. According to the Austrian news bureau APA, swimmers, track and field and soccer athletes have also received banned substances in these laboratories.

Professor Saltin is right now working with the German anti doping agency to find out who has been using the facilities in Austria. What a mess.

Если коротко, то  Салтин знает, что несколько биатлонистов пользовались услугами австрийских лабораторий, и сейчас совместно с немецким антидопинговым агентством выявляют кто именно.

Кроме того повторю сообщение об отсутствии должного допинг контроля во время Тур де Ски:


Tour de Ski or Tour de Farce? In the last couple of days I have spoken to a number of skiers and coaches who think something is wrong when Lukas Bauer beats the best in the world by such margins. Does this remind you of Muehlegg in the 2002 Olympics? When Zach and I were watching Johan, Zach said to me that something was very wrong, Muehlegg must be doped. Many were skeptical and chided Zach, but Zach was right.

Found out today that no one has been tested in the Tour de Farce in the last three days. Odd Bjoern Hjelmeset made an ironic comment about Lukas superfast skis. Axel Teichman could not understand why they were not being tested. When Charlotte Kalla won on Tuesday she was not tested. Nobody is being tested.

When reporters from Sweden's largest newspaper, Dagens Nyheter, asked Jurg Cacol, who is in charge of the venue in Nove Mesto, why nobody is being tested he answered: "It's not always best to test at races, it's better to make surprise tests." DN Continued. "But is it not standard procedure to test the top three skiers in every World Cup Race? His answer was: "What's normal? It's the unexpected that gives us results." Sounds like a lot of do - do to me. WADA is simply not doing their job if they don't test every winner on the World Cup circuit.

Если коротко - то на многих этапах Тур де ски победители и призеры вообще не проходили никакого допинг контроля.
