Who will be caught first ? Froome vs Contador

[EnacheV]

There is a lot of tension and stress for results right now.

With the new Henao problems added to the "win at all cost" Tinkoff mentality i'm curious who do you think will be caught first.

I'm not interested about who do you think is doping or not.

Only who do you think will fail first.

 

[Almeisan]

They won't be caught.

 

[BYOP88]

I believe that Contador has already been caught, so he 'wins'.

a better thread title would have been "is the sky empire falling apart"

 

[EnacheV]

I think Contador and Riis are more experienced. A minus is Tinkoff pressure and mouth.

On the other hand it seems something shaky is going on at Sky.

I believe chances are greater for Froome

why don't you make it? instead of posting garbage about how you have a crystal ball knowing people's intention over the internet.

You think Froome will get caught, even though you think he is clean?

How does that work?

La Gazzetta dello Sport and the other tabloids will bring him down

 

[Gung Ho Gun]

I expect someone like Pozzovivo to get caught, maybe Kreuziger ...

I don't think he is clean, or doped, i won't put my hand in fire for any of the sides. I just find laughable/ridiculous the "evidences" brought by his accusers, always amusing to combat.

I would assume that they both are doppers as the most likely to be true situation.

 

[bobbins]

Froome / Brailsford might just be getting too cocky. But they have the science to keep one step ahead and being partnered with the British Federation can't hurt.

 

[LaFlorecita]

Froome's got protection. He'll get busted eventually but it will take at least 5 years (god I hope I'm wrong)

Lets wait and see what Bruyneel has to say, can Contador survive any accusations that Bruyneel might have to say?

And how often do you beat your wife.

Ah, I got it. So you are just arguing for the sake of it. Now what's that called............

 

[Dazed and Confused]

If Sky (the sponsor) drops out of the sport, Froome will pop soon after imo.
If UCI is serious about changing the anti doping element of the sport, both will pop with short notice within a short space of time.

is there anything that Bruyneel can say to make Contador serve a 2nd retroactive ban and be completely bye bye ?

i don't think that's possible, it may be affect Contador's reputation but that's about all he can do.

He would lose all his wins from 2007 to 2009 though.

I guess it depends if an anti-doping authority takes it up and what the evidence is like, we will see what Bruyneel has to say first though, he may have other targets.

 

[Afrank]

I'm gonna say they both test positive and are caught the day after going head to head on Hautacam in an epic Tour deciding battle. I predict 8.0 W/Km.

 

[SundayRider]

Imagine if one of the Sky doms gets caught and therefore Froome has to tone it down massively and then his results crash back down to 'normal' levels. It must probably won't happen though. Can't see Froome testing positive but then all of the other major riders who have ever tested positive has always been a a big shock.
Not a shock that they were doping but a shock that they got caught/tested positive.

 

[SundayRider]

If Contador gets busted this year it would have a massive implication on Sky. As in why would Contador need to dope to beat a clean Froome. Even the biggest Armstrong believers stopped believing when loads of his rivals/team-mates got busted.

Jonathan Tiernan Locke??

And now Henao!! http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/sergio-henao-taken-off-sky-roster-due-to-test-anomalies

Mr. Henao is never tested positive. They know the values are out of range, but no one wants to open a case.

Was there ever a completed sanction against JTL?

I was thinking along the lines of one of the GT doms. JTL never really road for Froome/Wiggins did he not in the mode of Rogers/Kennaugh/Thomas etc.

Brailsford tells us that clean riders will soon be beating doped times. Some people are just going to accept that without thinking terribly hard about it.
