“the Data do världsåkarna shocked. “

“It sounds totally sick,” says Calle Halfvarsson. “

“the Austrian police struck against several national teams during the world CUP and confirm that they arrested five racers, two from Austria, two from Estonia and one from Kazakhstan.”

“the Austrian national coach Trond Nystad has confirmed that it is about Dominik Baldauf and Max Hauke, who was sixth in the sprintstafetten and much points to that the Estonian Andreas Veerpalu and Karel Tammjärv and the Kazakh star Alexey Poltoranin is the other suspects. “

“None of the riders came to the start during the men’s 15 km classic.”

“the Estonian Raido Ränkel is distressed after suspicions against the lagkamraterna. “

” I was surprised when they would not start. I asked if they were sick, but I got no response. I focused only on my race and asked nothing more. But I heard that there is a situation, “he says and continues:”

“– My serviceman told me that they would not start, but he did not know anything. It is sad for the whole of the skiing. “

“Are you good friend with them? “

“– We train together and support each other so it is a shock for me also. “

“According to Ränkel he lives and the rest of the Estonian national team, live, however, not at the same hotel as Verpaluu and Tammjärv during the world CUP. “

“the Austrian rider Luis Stadlober was on-site at the Austria hotel when the raid was conducted. “

” I’m shocked. It is inconceivable. I was at the hotel and heard the police but I saw nothing.”

” It sounds totally sick. I don’t know if you are going to talk about Poltoranin, but I thought it was a little strange. He has had Verpaluu as a coach who also gone there for doping. It’s a bit tricky. I would not have such a guy as a coach, then shows you what you have for view on doping, “he says and continues:”

“– It sounds very fishy everything. One must hope that those who prey on those who cheat. Hope they take all that dope. “

“there Have been rumors Poltoranin? “

“– It will be well, it is a very strange choice by the coach. Then you get such rumors about themselves, that goes without saying. “
