That whole thing might mean 40-year old Dolidovich gets the 50k bronze 

 

Although I hope gold and silver just stay vacant instead of Sundby moving on to the podium.

I think you can't be upgraded if you have a doping case in the past. So I guess 5th might get silver and 6th bronze?

 

Anyway, there is a case of that Greek sprinter whose silver didn't get upgraded to gold after Marion Jones' disqualification (because she had a doping case herself).

I'm pretty sure some shot putters and/or discus throwers and/or hammer throwers out there have been upgraded while having an entire hospital of doping cases in their past

Putin officially recognized the doping problem of such proportions in Russia:

But now he blames Rodchenkov in everything. Evil evil Rodchenkov drugged all the sportsmen and escaped and all the saint innocent poor Russian officials (Putin included) didn't know about it

 

Russian prosecutors opened another case against Rodchenkov, they demand his extradition from the US in order to have a revenge/to jail him in Russia. Not any whistleblower of such kind is safe there. They basically order others to STFU or else ...

Any particular example? Though if I'm not mistaken this applies only for Olympics.

Not off the top of my head although I'm pretty sure there's that Belarussian dude (hammer throw) who lost his medal, got his medal back, lost his medal, got his medal back etc and eventually got a high position in Belarussian sports

This is not an official rule by the IOC but they have used this method in the past.

PROHIBITED substances for 2018

North Korea Russian officials didn't let Rodchenkov's relatives to leave the country.

 

If the Schmidt panel won't take into consideration his new data he said he will publish it in the media.
