He was banned for using prohibited methods, but it was back dated, as the offences were from biological passport values in 2018/19. He's now accepted that ban, and has signed for Bahrain-Victorious with immediate effect, and will be riding the Tour of Britain next month.
Edit: I quit Twitter a while back, so have no idea if there is some additional polemica there.

So a 4-year ban... backdated which means he can start racing immediately now he's accepted it.

I have not found a good summary covering this: does it really take such a long period to identify abnormalities in the biological passport? Was he just so infrequently tested so it took such a long period to identify the abnormal values or the abnormal values were only divergent by such a small amount between each test? Even if his results are nullfied for the period, I think everyone can agree it is probably not optimal to have a person who is not clean competing for such a long period

What’s going on with Robert Stannard? I’m no longer on Twitter so missing a lot of discourse.
