  • Interview with one of the skiers said they were transfused concentrated Red Blood Cells immediately before a race then extracted blood immediately after before the markers that might trigger their off score could develop.

  • Which sounds like bullshit. Anyone who is on the podium in cycling is chaperoned until they are through doping control.

  • But are other sports, like this one where doping hadn't made the headlines before, as advanced as cycling?

    Perhaps they just lie down and bleed quietly in the snow.

  • Could this not be the case in skiing? I follow cycling a bit but skiing not so much, but I get the feeling that cycling is a few years ahead of other sports when it comes to doping and how it's managed?
