International Cycling Union president Pat McQuaid was blunt when responding to news of Tyler Hamilton’s admission to a positive anti-doping control. The Irishman simply said the sport is better off without the American rider, who served a doping suspension following the 2004 Athens Olympic Games.
"He has had a cloud over his career for a while now and the sport is better off without him," McQuaid told AP.
Hamilton admitted to taking a Mitamins product – billed as being natural – for his depression which contains vitamins D, B-6 and B-12, as well as thiamin, riboflavin and calcium. The drug also contains 20 milligrams of Dehydroepiandrosterone, a steroid referred to as DHEA.
