  • Where have I said that? My take on this, fwiw, is that Froome has a right to due process. His sample has triggered as AAF, he should be given the opportunity to present his case as to why that happened. If that satisfies the panel then he’s cleared, if not he should be banned, probably for 9 months as Ulissi was.

    The limit as set does appear to be arbitrary and not based on the latest science available, so it does seem possible that Froome stayed within the allowed dosage yet still exceeded the limit. I think it’s only fair he is given the opportunity to prove that.

  • Not sure how keen he’d be to ride the equivalent of a grand tour to demonstrate how his body processes a medicine under those conditions.

    Recreating the conditions may be difficult.

  • Read the VeloNews article I linked to above, I don’t think he needs to record the same numbers, just demonstrate that the dose he took can record a concentration above the 1000 limit.
