Anyone who thinks Contador is being specially targeted by this plasticiser test is crazy, stupid or both. They are trailing this test right now, I guarantee you they ran it on every single sample they had. They probably found several other riders with plasticiser in their blood, but the test isn't WADA-approved yet so they haven't said anything. The only reason the results of Contador's plasticiser tests leaked out were because he was caught for the Clen, so reporters were digging.
The labs are always ahead of the WADA list for testing. Lab directors very rarely give interview, but when they do and are asked about what they think the state of the peloton is they almost always say 'we know that there are a lot of dopers but the things we are catching them for are not banned yet'.
