As points are obsolete, release Herning- man dog away.
The report admits Riis even having used blood doping by a single case in connection with the Tour de France in 1997.
– Extensive misuse of cortisone
He admits also to have known of doping among several riders at CSC crew he controlled from the start of the 2000s.
– It took place extensive use of cortisone on the team to Riis, without that there were medical reasons for that, says the report.
It also emerged that the bike boss knew about doping among others Tyler Hamilton, Joerg Jaksch, Bo Hamburger and Michael Rasmussen.
– Bjarne Riis has acknowledged that he owns and sporting director while Tyler Hamilton was hired as a team, know that Hamilton collaborated with Eufemiano Fuentes (Spanish doping doctor, our note.) on blood doping. Riis has further admitted that in his career tried blood doping, and knew how it happened.
Tacit acceptance
It believes Doping Denmark is highly reprehensible:
– The research team believes that knowledge fouls a leader duty to act, and it has not Bjarne Riis adhered to. On the contrary, he has to distress tacitly accepted the use of doping. In our view, this involves complicity in a violation of anti-doping regulations, sounds the crushing verdict.
Riis should also have urged Hamburger to obtain EPO Jörg Jaksch, it emerges in the report.
PS Norwegian Kurt Asle Arvesen rode for the CSC team from 2004 to 2009. He is not mentioned in the Danish report.
