Bubba Stewart suspended for doping
« on: June 26, 2014, 01:42:55 PM »
I don't really follow SX/MX racing, but ran across this.

James Stewart is indefinitely suspended for failing a drug test following the Seattle SX round in April. Some kind of amphetamine showed up. Suzuki is saying it's a result of a prescribed medication for an unspecified long term condition. We'll see what happens in appeals.

I dunno. Drug testing has been around for years. Remember back in about 2000 when Haga was suspended for ephedrine use? He was taking a weight-loss supplement (it worked) and got busted for it. You'd think these guys could at least have someone read the label for them.
