The French anti-doping agency (AFLD) does not expect more positive results from this year's Tour de France.
The French paper L'Equipe reported Tuesday that AFLD said that they
expected the case involving Austrian Bernhard Kohl, who like several
others tested positive for the blood doping agent CERA, to be the last.
Kohl and three others tested positive after retests of their
samples were conducted with newly developed tests that could pick up
CERA doping.
Kohl's case brings to seven the total number of positive tests from the 2008 Tour de France.
