Passport Control: The Curious Case of Kreuziger
Elite Czech cyclist Roman Kreuziger this week, has taken the extraordinary step of publishing the details of his biological passport online. The publication of this record of his biological make-up over the course of his career is part of Kreuziger's attempts to convince authorities he is not a drugs cheat. Despite not failing a drugs test, the World Anti-Doping Agency, WADA, doesn't believe him and point to anomalies in this biological passport as the basis of their case to ban him from the sport. We spoke to Roman at his team's training camp in Gran Canaria.
