    Pedro Celaya, the doctor at his past team Discovery reported that as he remembers, Contador was absolutely obsessed with not doing anything strange about his health.

    ...and if you can't trust the word of a doctor at the Discovery Channel team, who else can you trust, amirite?

    You'd certainly expect a Discovery doctor to know the signs and symptoms of doping in a rider....

    wonder what the UCI will make of this. They ignored all the LA stuff that came up so surely they will treat this in the same manner :D

    Frenchie- it takes a LOT of time, but it's worth it. Settle down with a large cup of coffee and take the phone of the hook.

    It's probably the most important and enlightening commentary on the CAS ruling. Lots of detail that suddenly makes sense of some of the grey areas in the debate.

    Frenchie -- you should read it.

    The interview tells us a lot about AC, but also about Ashenden (not sure why he is talking about this stuff).

    The UCI didn't move on AC's passport. Is this Ashenden's way of kicking the UCI?
