Will there be positive doping tests from the Giro?

    At the 2008 Giro we had Sella winning 3 mountain stages, and subsequently testing positive for CERA-Epo after he was targeted for by the UCI.

    I can’t think of any similar stand-out performances at this year’s Giro. So I’m thinking that we might not get any serious doping cases from this year’s Giro. Who’ll bet against me?

    Well done hammergonewest and Jon. You both get a point, or a gold star, or something.

    Here’s hoping a four year ban at least!

    yeah the only one who was a little bit interesting in my opinion was di luca, he may not have taken time on many stages but he was leading groups and packs up all the major climbs.

    You could argue that Di Luca’s was a standout performance right the way through given his form of recent years 😕
