For the second time in the 2008 Tour de France a rider tested positive for the blood enhancing drug EPO. French agencies report out that Moises Nevado tested for synthetic EPO following stage 4 of the Tour. To Yahoo Europe:
Spain's Moises Duenas Nevado tested positive for the blood boosting drug EPO after the fourth stage of the Tour de France, according to the French anti-doping agency.
The 27-year-old Barloworld rider was immediately withdrawn from the race by his team after he became the second Spaniard in less than a week to fail a drugs test.
"We notified Moises Duenas Nevado that he had tested positive for EPO after the fourth stage this morning,"AFLD president Pierre Bordry said.
The French police raided the rooms of Barloworld riders. These guys must be practiced in this drill by now:
Police raided the hotel were Duenas Nevado's team were staying before the start of Wednesday's 11th stage and left with the rider who was to be questioned, witnesses said.
"This is unbelievable," Barloworld team manager Claudio Corti said. "I don't understand. I didn't even have time to talk to him."
That's only two riders showing doping this year -- Navedo and Manuel Beltran. Not bad for an off year.
