Contador Suspended after Positive Dope Test

Alberto Contador was recently suspended from competitive cycling for trace amounts of clenbuterol on a rest day during the 2010 Tour de France.  It's a little known drug, and odd that it would have shown up on a rest day, so many experts are not jumping to the guilty conclusion just yet.

But in a sport where any little bit helps, maybe taking something that most people aren't looking for is effective.  And you wouldn't be taking it on rest day, so you wouldn't be taking a masking agent either, and that's when it pops up...  Contador is blaming it on bad food.  Full story here.
