The B test was a formality. The two testing samples come from the same origin sample. The B test just eliminates a possibility of confusion or lab contamination.
As this is a WADA rules drug test, it's an absolute offence and it's the athlete's duty to ensure they don't ingest any banned substances but the interesting factors in this are as follows:
Iannone had a cosmetic procedure last year which looked to be a nose job or similar.
Iannone seems to be very much in luurve with his own image, especially looking at some instagram stuff. I personally am not on instagram but people have posted some of his images on FB... and... well... jeez.
The drug in question is an expensive version of a steroid which is too expensive for use in meat production. Apparently it's supposed to metabolise within 3 weeks, and is used on a 3 week cycle for weight loss and muscle definition. The traces are consistent with the end of a 3 week cycle apparently... (Maybe he thought he'd get away with it?)
Iannone has lost a few KG in weight since the end of the last season.
That all points towards Iannone being a very naughty boy indeed likely because of his body dysmorphic disorder, or perhaps more likely his Trump level narcissism. ____________________ British beauty: Triumph Street Triple R; Loony stroker: KR1S; Track fun: GSXR750 L1; Commuter Missile: GSX-S1000F

Re Rossi.
I remember him saying that he'd know by a few races in whether it was worth doing another year.
If the stars are in correct alignment he could end a brilliant career in the top 3, hopefully including a couple of wins.
Marc? He's at another level from them all. Pretty much invented a new riding style and that hadn't happened since King Kenny. Agree he's been very lucky not to have totalled himself. ____________________ Diabolical homemade music Bandcamp and Soundcloud

2 weeks from the first race and Gigi hits the whole paddock right in the ride height adjustments.
The reply from Danilo Petrucci is my favourite.
Have you been trying something that lets you adjust the ride height today?

Having just watched bits of the testing it's plainly visible when the back of the bike drops whilst exiting the corner.
It'll be deployed by the rider down the straights too.

Travel Restrictions.
The big boys won't be racing next week.
Moto2 and Moto3 are still going ahead.
The ongoing coronavirus outbreak has resulted in Qatar travel restrictions being brought into force that affect passengers from Italy, amongst other countries. As of today, all passengers arriving at Doha on direct flights from Italy, or having been in Italy in the past 2 weeks, will be taken straight to quarantine for a minimum of 14 days. Italy clearly plays a vital role in the Championship and in the MotoGP class - both on track and off - and therefore the decision has been taken to cancel premier class competition.
As the teams and riders of the Moto2™ and Moto3™ classes were already in Qatar for the three-day official test at Losail International Circuit earlier this week, the races of both categories will be possible. The lightweight and intermediate classes will therefore compete in their season opener from the 6th to 8th March. The same will apply to the Idemitsu Asia Talent Cup, which will have two races during the Qatar Grand Prix as originally planned. ____________________ Diabolical homemade music Bandcamp and Soundcloud

My guess is the 2020 championship will be 'cancelled' but I think races will take place.
They won't tell us they're cancelling anything because frankly the decisions are not down to the organisers and knowing how long it takes refunds to go through (call me cynical but if I had x million to hold onto I'd like to think they'd be some return on that) i.e Silverstone.
I don't have the numbers on Italian riders, mechanics, crew chiefs and support workers but I suspect it's sizable enough to cause major issues.
The area that Italy has put into quarantine affects 16 million people.
Personally think it's FUBAR'D regarding a championship. Can't think they'd be many racers who would be proud enough to mention they won the trophy because nobody else had turned up. ____________________ Diabolical homemade music Bandcamp and Soundcloud
