Chris Froome Salbutamol result - Poll

How does the Chris Froome Salbutamol result, and the conclusion of his case, strike you?


I voted that the system failed. I voted this way because Chris Froome's case should have been kept secret unless he was guilty. The system failed because of the leak.

the system failed in that it created 9 months of confusion and, now that we have an outcome, even more confusion.
i don't have a strong opinion let alone knowledge to support it on his guilt or innocence, i just don't feel confident that justice has been done for anyone. transparency and clarity is what sport needs and we have very little of either.

interesting comparison with the cardoso case on velonews today where the little guy in a similarly unclear situation looks like going down just because he's run out of money to fight whereas froome has all the resources to fight beyond the ability of UCI/WADA.

Right, it's not a zero-sum game where either one or the other is a failure.

The system worked: the UCI protected their prized rider and team team from legal action.

Just remember, the UCI and WADA had little interest in bringing down Lance.

1. are you denying the leak
2. are you denying 2000(whatever the unit was) on both A and B sample..

I cant help you... I'm fine with the outcome, but I think the system failed twice.
