No big deal, just USADA hiding a positive test for SEVEN YEARS.
It was wrong when Russia did this and it is wrong for USADA to do this.
This is not the first time, but this is by far the longest case that has ever been made public. Also, this press release doesn’t even make sense.
It says he served a provisional ban from March 28-July 27, 2015, but Tilastopaja says he competed in five road races during that period.
He then went on to compete in numerous road races 2016-2019.
How many athletes were deprived prize money because USADA allowed an athlete that failed a drug test to keep competing?
Who else has secretly served bans?
