Andrea Iannone is a racing driver whose career was euthanized by a court ruling which sentenced him to a four-year ban for doping. Since then, the Italian has been sensitive to this type of news and the latest event concerning a long-distance runner named Alex Schwazer made him react. Accused of doping, the athlete was cleared of all suspicion after a long procedure. But what raises questions are the considerations which led to this epilogue and which call into question the international anti-doping agency...
Comparison is not reason, but when it comes to justice, approximation should have no place. However, in the case ofAlex Schwazer, finally cleared after being accused of doping, there is some doubt about the functioning of the system when we discover that the investigating judge mentions having “ verified with high credibility that the urine samples taken from Schwazer have been modified to make them positive“. The same magistrate criticizes the methods of action of Wada (international anti-doping agency).
It didn't take more Andrea Iannone, sentenced to four years of suspension by the Tas, to come out of his reserve and post a video on his story Instagram immortalizing a speech which does not make nuance against what it designates as “ the system ».
Andrea Iannone: “this system needs to be stopped because it really sucks”
« These situations have been happening for some time " accused Iannone. " I must only say that this system must be stopped absolutely for the sake of the athletes who have sacrificed their whole lives and who make great physical and mental efforts without being doped. ».
« It's true that there are athletes who take drugs and who certainly need to be punished continues Joe the Maniac in his invective. “But there are also those who have never doped, it is not fair that they simply pay because the mafia is bigger than sport today. So this system needs to be stopped because it really sucks ". That is what is said.
