Dave Brailsford faces grilling from MPs over doping in cycling – as it happened – The Guardian

So it took a while but Brailsford finally gave us some clarity about what was in the package that was delivered to Bradley Wiggins at the Dauphiné in 2011. Questions will inevitably be asked as to why Team Sky and British Cycling went to such lengths to deliver such a trivial-seeming medication (fluimucil) and why something that it is advised should not be used to treat an asthma sufferer was used to treat an asthma sufferer. The details around this will be revealed by Ukad and we may know more then. It needs to be confirmed, through invoices, whether what Brailsford has been told by Dr Freeman is in fact true. One thing is certain, that British Cycling and Team Sky have been tainted by this farrago and that their sporting operations would appear to be run in a more haphazard manner than you may think from such successful teams. Brailsford was as adamant as ever that Team Sky are clean, though. We will have a news take on the inquiry up shortly.
