TDF = The Daytime tour of French fences
FRANCE:
It must be embarrassing that you cannot even just place in, let alone win, either the tdf or the french F1 Grand Prix. It must hurt so bad that France will even go below dirt to do the following: http://thestar.com.my/sports/story.a...653&sec=sports MAGNY-COURS: Finland's Kimi Raikkonen of Ferrari was among six drivers forced to undergo an anti-doping control here on Friday, motor sport's world ruling body (FIA) announced. Raikkonen, Rubens Barrichello (Honda), Robert Kubica (BMW Sauber), Nico Rosberg (Williams), Vitantonio Liuzzi (Toro Rosso) and Anthony Davidson (Super Aguri) were selected to provide urine samples for the test. The samples have been tested, but so far the results have not been announced. Doping controls in the Formula One are rare, however, the president of France's national anti-doping agency (AFLD), Pierre Bordry, said on Wednesday that the tests would be carried out at Magny-Cours ahead of today's Grand Prix. - AFP |

I don't see any reason to test drivers of 200+ mph vehicles traveling 3' from each other. They're not a danger to anyone or anything. They're wearing helmets, fer crissakes! What motivation would they have for taking the drugs? They're gentlemen and taking drugs would give someone an unfair advantage. That's just not right, and I'm sure they'd never do it. R |
