Be interesting to see how he responds for sure. He's sounded pretty fucked off with the stuff up until now (but not fucked off enough to leave)!
What is the argument for not banning a whole team, or striking off results for the whole team, in the event of a doping positive in a particular race? EG Nibali would lose his TDF win because he was helped to get it by a juiced domestic.

Gazetta would be very clear, but given the spate of positives at Astana and the the murky presence of Dr Ferrari, it is rather fanciful to draw of picture of a team where there is widespread doping APART from their top rider.
Of course that is speculative, but if Astana burns it will be very difficult to look at Nibali and be confident he is/has been riding clean
