Danielsonek positiboa eman du, eta ez da Utahko Itzulian egongo

Tom Danielsonek (Cannondale-Garmin) dopinaren aurkako kontrol batean positiboa eman duela esan du Twitterren, testosterona sintetikoagatik. Txirrindularia ez da Utahko Tourrean egongo, bigarren analisiaren zain. Utahko azken bi edizioak irabazi ditu.

Estatubatuarrak debeketatutako sustantziarik ez duela hartu esan du, eta ezin duela azaldu testaren emaitza. "Oso minduta, gaizki eta haserre sentitzen naiz honengatik. Ez dut ulertzen nola eta zergatik gertatu den, eta oraindik ezin dut hau egia denik onartu. Ez dut hau ezta beste debekatutako sustantziarik hartu", esan du Twitterren.

Danielsonek Discovery Channel taldean ibili zenean dopatu zela onartu zuen, eta sei hilabeteko zigorra jaso zuen 2012 eta 2013 artean.

Tonight has been one of the worst nights of my life. While I was eating dinner with my team the night before Tour of Utah I received a call

For USADA notifying me that a out of competition test I gave July 9th has tested positive for, from what I understand, synthetic testosteron

I have not taken this or any other banned substance

I spoke with them and my team and I will have to sit out the Tour of Utah as I wait for the B sample as well as look into

All the possible ways that could have produced this result.

I would never ever take anything like this especially after everything I have gone through the last years. This makes absolutely no sense

I will now, as I wait for the B test, have the supplements I take, tested to see if this is what caused it.

I feel incredibly hurt, frustrated, and angry by this. I don't understand how or why this happened and still can't even accept this is true

I love cycling. I love it so fucking much. I love the races, the rides, the people, the businesses, I love it all. Nothing compares for me.
