    A urinary tract infection could affect the functioning of his kideneys, this might explain not just the high values on the day of the 'failed' test but the unusually low values on the days either side................

    What's the source for that L'Equipe story? I don't imagine Froome's side is leaking it to them. It seems a little fanciful to me.

    Gotta have some stones for that defence.

    The question is, does it hold water?

    High risk strategy. Could be career-ending.

    FANtastic. :)

    The man is falling apart - UTI, bad kidneys, aliens, asthma. If they could only clone him we could have some kind of super population.

    There seems to be strong evidence connecting parasitic diseases (i.e. bilharzia) and renal issues/failure... is this where Froome’s defence is going?
