p.s. sorry fopr the article in Spanish only...at the moment there's nothing in English (but some Italian media have already reported this news)...

It would help to say like one sentence what it's about :p 

 

The Spanish track cycling team in 1996 was, reportedly, doped by the famous mister Ferrari?

yes, by one of his followers: dr. Luis Garcia Del Moral...

the article also says that the Spanish cycling federation itself had a full doping program running from 1993 through 1998...

 

since they didn't win a single medal in Atlanta (and very few in that entire span), I'm just asking myself how clean were those who won tons of medals in that period (but also those who replaced the leading Countries of the Nineties)? :whistle:

You mean how clean the medal winners were in the time athletes had EPO for breakfast, lunch and dinner? Yeah...I'm not really doubting about that :d

    • 2 things...   first, for what concerns the cooperation between inline skating and speedskating federations...sorry to disppoint some of you, but there's a great cooperation between them   the point is that many "summer" skaters just don't want to try the ice because they have too much to give up for that   you name places like Collalbo or Baselga, but for the "summer skating" guys from centeral and southern regions it's not an option, it's not that they make it for a living with those disciplines, they have to focus on their studies and build a post-competitive sport career and they just can't place themselves into a hole in the mountains when they maybe are studying in some prestigious universities in the big cities   as I already posted more than once, the idea of covering one of those tracks in the mountains was something idiotic, a political concession impossible to be sustained   the one and only chance to build a true legacy and an efficient, attractive national training center was to build a permanent indoor oval in Milan, beside the Forum   that would have given all the "summer skaters" a true opportunity to try the ice experience and at the same time find the most useful, attractive, prestigious places to continue their studies and try and manage them together with their sports career   any other place wouldn't stand a chance   second...don't give Salvini any credit he doesn't deserve...actually, I think he doesn't even know that in Cortina there's a sliding sports track    it's not thanks to him that the Cortina track's building finally went underway
