And no Brits for Team Sky at the Giro, and lead by the rider that we were all scratching our heads about after Astana tore up the race last year, fresh from narrowly avoiding losing World Tour status.

Yay!

They kept their WT status precisely because their was no evidence to suggest a team wide doping programme.

Sky had been tracking Landa for some time, and by all accounts his bio passport data is well within the realms of normal. I think after the Tiernan-Locke debacle Sky are very careful in vetting new signings.

Yeah you are right, I personally think the time of team-wide doping has long gone anyway, its just whether teams choose to look the other way if a rider is at it. I just get narked when Sky put out GT teams with no Brits. I had a similar moan last year.
