Identifying cases of doping is not an easy task and is subject to discretion if required by their respective international federations, some do not advertise doping cases in their discipline. Cycling, in contrast, reveals each positive test. Our numbers are therefore based on proven cases in 2014, according to official communications federations and anti-doping agencies, etc..
Baseball (55) is not the most affected sport in 2014 anymore : athletics took the lead in the rankings with a total of 63 positive controls, thirty more than three months ago. Weightlifting stays third with twenty cases. Cycling falls behind with thirteen cases, less than a quarter of athletics figures.
MPCC counting includes :
– Road cycling: ten cases identified for this most publicised discipline.
– Track-cycling : two case.
– Mountain-Bike : one cases.
Each time a team member of MPCC has been concerned by a case, the MPCC regulations were followed to the letter : suspension, dismissal, self-suspension when required.
