Chris Froome's test is considered an Adverse Analytical Finding (AAF) under WADA and Froome must now prove to UCI under a pharmacokinetic test that he inhaled the correct dosage of Salbutomol.


Union Cycliste Internationale statement

UCI statement on Christopher Froome

13 December 2017

The Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) confirms that British rider Christopher Froome was notified of an Adverse Analytical Finding (AAF) of Salbutamol in excess of 1000ng/ml (*) in a sample collected during the Vuelta a España on 7 September 2017. The rider was notified of the AAF on 20 September 2017.

The anti-doping control was planned and carried out by the Cycling Anti-Doping Foundation (CADF), the independent body mandated by the UCI, in charge of defining and implementing the anti-doping strategy in cycling.

The analysis of the B sample has confirmed the results of the rider’s A sample and the proceedings are being conducted in line with the UCI Anti-Doping Rules.

As a matter of principle, and whilst not required by the World Anti-Doping Code, the UCI systematically reports potential anti-doping rule violations via its website when a mandatory provisional suspension applies. Pursuant to Article 7.9.1. of the UCI Anti-Doping Rules, the presence of a Specified Substance such as Salbutamol in a sample does not result in the imposition of such mandatory provisional suspension against the rider.

At this stage of the procedure, the UCI will not comment any further on this matter.

(*) WADA’s Prohibited List provides that: “The presence in urine of salbutamol in excess of 1000 ng/mL or formoterol in excess of 40 ng/mL is presumed not to be an intended therapeutic use of the substance and will be considered as an Adverse Analytical Finding (AAF) unless the Athlete proves, through a controlled pharmacokinetic study, that the abnormal result was the consequence of the use of the therapeutic dose (by inhalation) up to the maximum dose indicated above.”


Individual Athlete Chris Froome responds to UCI Statement on Team Sky website.  Chris Froome describes himself in the third person. Individual Team Principal Sir David Brailsford responds also.

Seen the bowld Sir Mo on Saturday coming out of the local newsagents with a slice pan of bread. Little did I know he was destined for greatness less than 24hrs later.

This one is really worth a bump, the man was so far ahead of the curve he could have drawn it himself. Written all of 27 years ago, as predictions go, and the exact nature of drugs in sport (he did have a lot of expertise in fairness) and testing procedures has proved to be so accurate you might think various doping bodies used it as a guideline as to who they might target for catching.

Bear in mind, this was written in 1991.......


“International sport is moving irrevocably toward a two-tiered athletic society–to prosecute the great mass of uninformed and expendable players, while giving carte blanche to a handful of well-connected superstars. Doping control in the 1990s will formalize limited, beatable testing–a controlled and selective roulette with the risk of major scandal. The anxious network sugar daddies will be appeased, the record-hungry fans satiated. And if the competitions become over-produced Hollywood farces, with an ever-widening gap between the few authentic contenders and all the rest with no chance, who will be the wiser.”

Do sports fans think Bolt is clean? 

Considering how pathetic the Jamican testing system is...

Yeah,

He's been breaking world records since he was a child.

Then again, with sweeping generalizations I'm sure many would find him guilty.

It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

Hang on, just because he had pedigree doesn't mean he's clean.

Lance Armstrong had pedigree, he wasn't clean.

Chris Froome never had pedigree.....
