What a surprise.

 

[Bye Bye Bicycle]

This joke isn't funny anymore.

Marcel Kittel was right.

 

[Benotti69]

Timed for release to the public at this moment to try and distract from Froome?

 

[mikehammer67]

they all dope in turkey

 

[timbo25]

I was not often in my life so angry about a result of someone else. And I see many people around me feeling the same. #TourofTurkey

I was about to say the Marcel Kittel was right, but someone beat me to it.
Bravo Mr Kittel, great to see a cyclist speaking freely about doping. Armstrong would be fuming !

yeah, the test itself is from March

 

[Dazed and Confused]

No surprise.

In the future we must find a way to punish the team when something like this happen.

 

[ChewbaccaD]

this is shocking...the most surprising thing I will see today...just floored...who would have thought?...

And an ember is pulled from the fire to be extinguished while the inferno blazes on.

 

[Ferminal]

To prevent this disgrace they should invite Tabriz instead of Torku next year.

 

[Pharazon]

just about the most obvious positive since erm... about a month

 

[DominicDecoco]

Guys, you still have time to edit your posts regarding what Kittel said back then..

Btw, let's not have this race organised again next year, shall we...

you mean, this is not allowed in this thread?

I find this hard to believe. All cyclists stopped doping in 2006. I hope Aaron Brown is setting up a defense fund for Sayar.

I mean the race is a joke and should not be organised again.

He wasnt even doing 6.0w/kg. Must be a false positive

Turkey? What does it have to do with them? I'm sure there's still far less doping per capita in that race than the Giro or Tour.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

OMG I CANNOT BELIEVE IT

oh wait i can

Yeh, I'm not really convinced by that. But again, I don't think each and everyone is doped, contrary the clinic.

 

[sublimit]

Sayer must be the "Tyson Gay" of Turkey right now. I just hope his B sample pulls through

Too bad he does not have the guts to speak out against his clubbing buddy, Froome.

 

[One Man Grupetto]

I think that there were strong suggestions that the sponsors would pull the plug on the tour if the winner tested positive again. The rumour was that Sayar was asked to leave the race following his win on the Queen Stage to prevent this happening.

 

[hrotha]

This is so shocking my first reaction was "Sayar tested positive AGAIN?"

True story.

 

[King Boonen]

And I was criticised in a thread for using Kittel as an example of someone who speaks out against doping...
