Tuaminoheptane
Gazzoli’s explanation is that he unintentionally ingested it after using a nasal spray bought independently at a pharmacy to treat a blocked nose. After hearing Gazzoli’s case, they have classified the anti-doping violation as unintentional.

It’s not a doping offence.

Quintana’s lawyers will be testing that
What is there to test? The prohibition existed when he signed the start sheet. Any sports governing body is entitled to add to the list of proscribed substances where they see a need which is not met by the WADA list.

Swiss news sites RTS.ch and SRF.ch are reporting that 2021 vice-Olympic champion and 2021 World Cup overall series winner Mathias Flückiger has been provisionally suspended after testing positive for the anabolic substance Zeranol.
Swiss Cycling was notified of the potential anti-doping rule violation by Swiss Sport Integrity on Thursday afternoon. The in-competition test was carried out on June 5, 2022 at the Swiss Championships in Leysin, a race which Flückiger won for Thömus maxon Swiss Mountain Bike Racing.
In accordance with the Swiss Olympic doping statute, the 33-year-old has been provisionally banned with immediate effect and will not be competing in the European Championships on Friday. The B sample is still pending.
Flückiger was most recently in the news after his crash with Swiss teammate Nino Schurter on the last lap of their home race in Lenzerheide. The two crashed away from the cameras on the way to what would have been a double victory. Flückiger then missed Snowshoe and Mont-Sainte-Anne World Cups due to illness.

How much testing happens in MTB compared to road?
The same rules apply, presumably the quantity of testing corresponds to the level and number of competitors as for road and track.

Freeman has lost his appeal re being struck off. Must be a few squeaky bums at BC now that the doping investigation will be restarted.
