As I understand it, 1000 is the limit and he measured 1900. 2 doses = 100, so 18 doses over the limit. I might be mistaken though.
Nope, 1 dose is 100, so he is 'just' 7 over the limit
My bad, sorry. Still a lot more than necessary according to the rules. |

Its all well and good to sit here and call him a cheat, but having suffered Asthma in my early days, when you do get an attack, you don't give a shit about the prescription and you use the inhaler as much as possible to get rid of the symptoms. If thats what he has done, l have no problem whatever the values are. If he has done it to cheat, then the book must be thrown at him. Don't though presume either situation before the situation is resolved, as this is a complex issue which now, the UCI and WADA needs to resolve. |

I read half of it, pretty interesting most of it, especially since I havent read the book. I think Froome seems pretty sympatic, maybe its just me  |

After what happened on La Toussuire, no one will ever be able to convince me that Froome is a nice guy

Of course if he were to suffer an asthma attack he wouldn't be capable of riding his bike at racing speed...
