Katusha rider Giampaolo Caruso positive for EPO from a re-test of a sample from 2012. Rumours of undetectable Chinese EPO has long been around, I wonder if there is now a reliable test.
That's Katusha's second positive of the season (Paolini the other) which likely means they'll be suspended from racing for a month.
There will be complaints (duh) - a retroactive test which could make a team suffer for the actions of a rider who could have been riding for another team when the infraction occurred seems a bit problematic.
