Depends on whether WADA responds to this by changing the rules surrounding Sabutamol or states that the test is flawed.
In which case, I expect they have the right to ask for the decision to be reviewed?
Ulissi admitted negligence so not sure he can come back from that.Petacchi on the other hand, had a lower level of Sabutamol (1300ng/ml) which given recent WADA changes allowing for adjusted results taking into account dehydration, may in fact now be under the limit. One of his arguments at the time was dehydration I believe.
Froome's sample was downgraded from 2000ng/ml to 1429ng/ml. If you apply the same 28.55%, this would bring Petacchi's sample to 929ng/ml which would be under the limit.
Given that he lost 5 giro stage wins, I reckon he'd be silly not to appeal.
so if you're an Ullissi or Petacchi do you get any wins/money that were stripped returned to you and bans taken off your record?
