  • going forward people will have to clarify whether positive tests are for corona or doping otherwise things could get very confused / slanderous

  • Especially as the reaction to a positive test seems to have fast become denial of the possibility of having the virus. Although Larry Warbasse, Silvan Dillier and Inge Van der Heijden have just proved that can indeed be a thing and the sheer amount of testing going on around the Tour bubble increases the risk of false positives.

    ASO's policy is to require any rider or staff member testing positive once to leave the Tour, even if a subsequent test is negative and they have no symptoms. So it's going to be interesting to see what happens if a rider gets a false positive, has to leave the Tour then subsequently tests negative.

    Especially if they're wearing yellow!
