Blimey, we were all a bit agog at Cobo at the time and his miraculous form but where the hell did this come from!

I know. How was this not picked up earlier?

I remember at the time, it seemed pretty obvious he was on something pretty powerful (relative to others in the race), and he practically vanished after this.

Hang on. Biopassport? I don't understand.

I thought the Biopassport was for longitudinal analysis of a bunch of biological metrics. So if something (say haematocrit) suddenly blips away from the previous base level it sets off an alarm bell.

So how can you get new data for biopassport analysis (short of using a Tardis)? It's not like re-testing an old sample.

Or have I misunderstood as usual.

Yeah until more info comes out it does seem a bit strange.
 
Adam Yates doesn't even try to hide the fact that hes cheating...

So there are retested samples and it's not just a biopassport thing? That would make sense.

Millar on the telly last night seemed to share my bafflement about how a biopassport that is unchanged since 2011 could change from OK to positive. He suggested new analysis techniques.
