Gusev was on 2008 Giro, probably on CERA but his team leader was probably using his TDF blood after having good time on the beach.Turd Ferguson said:I thought it was decided to not test the Giro samples afterall. Or they did and couldn't handle the type of fallout from what they found.
It doesn't say he was probably using CERA. It says he was probably using a substance to stimulate his bone marrow, either an EPO or a substance that has a similar effect, such as CERA.nobody said:According report of the TAS arbitration and Darmsgaard, Gusev was probably using CERA.
Coincidentaly he was fired by Astana few days after Ricco was caught by the unexpected existence of a CERA test!
Hpefully other Astana riders were safe to be uninvited on last TDF.![]()
