The UCI “protocol” doesn’t
The UCI “protocol” doesn’t even come into it, the have to follow the WADA code.

They haven’t done that, WADA has the final say, they have told UCI to sort it out, yet the UCI will not be open and transparent with anyone.

They have simply let Dr Zorzoli decide, bypassing the WADA code that demands a committee, so the UCI have failed to even stick by the code that governs ALL anti doping bodies. Meaning that Froome’s TUE was actually illegal.

Until the UCI release the names and positions of their TUE committee (which doesn’t exist) then there will always be questions.

Go to most other organisations who fall under the WADA code and you can find the names and positions of their TUE members

Many are saying a committee needs to decide, and an individual cannot, that is what I was attempting to address here.

An individual cannot make the call without the committee though. So it is irrelevant who made the call on Froomes TUE if the UCI do not have a committee in place.

Here is an article that might help you http://inrng.com/2014/06/uci-vs-jdd-round-two-wada-guidelines-tue/

Otherwise, you could do what I did last night and take the UCI course on anti doping.

This is how all TUE’s have to be reported to WADA…..one person cannot make all the decisions like what the UCI have let happen

There is NO UCI committee
There is NO UCI committee that is the issue….they HAVE to have one before any TUE can be ruled on…it is that simple.

The UCI takes its lead from WADA and has to go by their code, so the UCI regulations don’t matter.

It doesn’t and they didn’t (unless you know something about the latter). The rules apparently stipulate that an individual can also make that decision, the details of that appeared in, or link from, one of the
endless articles/posts/ramblings about this.

The WADA code states

2.1.1 The ADO must set up a network of physicians responsible for evaluating TUE applications. TUE Committees (TUECs) should include at least three physicians with experience in the care and treatment of athletes and a sound knowledge of clinical, sports and exercise medicine (see Article 6.1 of the International Standard for TUEs). The TUEC will be chaired by one of the member physicians.

Which bit ?

WADA didn’t clear them, it said that they were concerned about the process of getting the TUE and have asked the UCI to quickly remedy the shortcomings identified in this case.

I don’t think Sky did
I don’t think Sky did anything wrong, it is the UCI who are up sh*t creek without a paddle regarding the TUE.

The decision has to be made by a committee. It wasn’t and WADA have told the UCI to get their house in order.

The UCI are saying WADA “investigated” and cleared them, which is bullsh*t.

Will be interesting to see how this one develops
