So, if Russia will not have full ban for what was this circus?

 

That the whole "hard stance on doping" rhetoric only applies to minnows and powerful countries can cheat as they like. Be prepared for Efimova's medal. 

 

EDIT: actually, never mind, looks like she's banned

3. The ROC is not allowed to enter any athlete for the Olympic Games Rio 2016 who has ever been sanctioned for doping, even if he or she has served the sanction.

I think Efimova stay home

Looks like she is. Good.

 

And tbh, for my sister's sake I hope your synchro swim and rhythmic teams do make it

So....Russians are banned unless they are tested.  So, basically, nothing is done.

because in some sports you can have great advantage in taking some drugs even during the course of the event (for instance, in shooting you can benefit of being slightly drunk just before the final - once you get in - in order to calm down nerves)...

There will still be no Russians in athletics, right? Like IAAF decided.

thanks  

I'm not interested in athletics, swimming, weightlifting, cycling. Most dirty sports in the world. But very pleased that Rio will be our synchronized swimmers, gymnasts, volleyball and handball team, diver, wrestlers and boxers, fencers, and Stefania Elfutina (sailing)
