yes, we definitely can count on a Brunyel (sp?) to run a clean team based on past history and recent signings. ;-) How about that Alan Davis winning three stages in the Chinese stage race for Discovery. Another Fuentes link.

> The Dane had seemingly weathered the storm over missing four
> out of competition dope tests in the past 18 months and had won Wednesday's
> stage to all but seal overall victroy.
> However the team has learnt that Rasmussen lied to them over
> where and what he was up to during the month of June when hewas in fact in
> Italy and not in Mexico as he had told them.
> "He broke team rules," said a team spokesman, who said that
> the Dane has also been fired from the team.
> "It is not even sure if the team will carry on in the race,"
> he added.
> Rasmussen had won two stages during the Tour, though, his
> presence at the race was questioned by several officials and from the race
> organisers as well.
> His departure leaves young Spaniard Alberto Contador in the
> lead with Australian Cadel Evans in second.
