World Anti-Doping Agency tests several Formula One drivers

I am sure its nothing new, however they are cracking down hard on all sports ever since Lance Armstrong.

World Anti-Doping Agency tests several Formula One drivers - Autoweek

 

i cant imagine why an f1 driver would need stuff like this. i guess for mental focus?

 

Stamina, but I could side effects, such as bad judgment, severely negatively impacting a driver.

The "attraction" is no different than for athletes of any sport. F1 is one of the most demanding sports on the planet, physically and mentally.

 

Kimi must have a special waiver

 

Vodka is not a banned substance is it?

 

He only needs his extra 12 hours of sleep to fully recover. Too bad He had to test the following day after a long night at the Hotel Bar in Barcelona.

 

This whole war on doping is getting ridiculous. I mean really, WGAF?

 

They should test Grosjean then...

 

This seems strange.

 

I was more referring to rage, so maybe they should test slash??

will LMFAO if Massa tests positive for growth hormones

 

Oh that's cruel.

Funny as hell, but cruel.

 

Paraphrasing Jay Leno;

"In what way is pot performance enhancing?".......

"Unless there's a big ol' Hershey bar in the pits."

RBT (random breath testing) here might have something to say about that

Apart form TomᚠEnge, I can´t remember any other case of doping in motorsports.

 

I think everyone in F1 was on coke in the 80s.

 

Are they looking for dope in the cars? Is that why the back markers are so slow?

 

They can't afford lead ballast.

 

Nazis did cook their own speed prior to battle.

US AF pilots take speed while on mission.

 

Long haul truckies used to live on the stuff until 'the clocks' became ubiquitous.

However, given the heart rates Prof Sid discovered in his research, I'd have to say it'd be about the *last* thing an F1 jockey needed!.....

'Betablockers' (golfers, snooker, I guess curling ) are a different deal - Calm you down apparently.

There was a story where pornoMaXXX was traveling with James Hunt to the Brazilian GP. Arriving in Brazil, Hunt said he wanted to make a stop at his friends house. Max agreed and once arrived they had a drink and Hunt and his friend where doing lines of ''a white substance''. They offered Max but he claims he didn't have any of the stuff he didn't know what it was (yeah right).

The reporter then asked if Hunt was ever drug tested. His answer: ''No, but I'm fairly certain he would have tested positive on occasions'', or among those lines.

It'll be a bit strong to say that ''everyone'' was on coke in the 80s, but I'm sure a good many where.

 

There's been a few in Nascar but they have strict testing policies. The higher profile cases are Jeremy Mayfield and AJ Allmendinger. There were rumors that Al Unser Jr might have had depression and substance abuse issues in his last few years with team Penske. I don't know what the CART drug testing policy was back then if there even was one.

 

Maybe they should test Vettle's car???
