"It is an unfortunate reality that Passport testers during the Tour have only limited opportunities to access teams, and riders can be pretty confident of predicting when Passport tests will be conducted - for example on the morning of rest days. This translates to a situation where, regardless when the red cells had been reinfused, a rider seeking to mask doping would be motivated to infuse plasma shortly before they predict they will be required to provide a Passport sample."

"However in the meantime it’s frustrating because we see a suspicious signature, but its not easy to persuade authorities to prosecute an athlete when there are no peaks and troughs!"
