No. Ben Jonson's event lasts less than 10sec and he still doped. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Johnson_(athlete) )
It's not the endurance that causes the doping, it's the desire to win, thee entrenched 'voodoo magic' culture passed down through the older riders to the newbies and the attitude that 'if they're doing it i have no chance so i must also do it'.
