Landis Sees Acquittal As Positive

A Spanish cyclist has been acquitted of his doping allegations due to improper testing procedures. The French lab at question in this case is also the same lab that came up with the positive test for Tour de France winner Floyd Landis.

(AP)"The CAS decision ... strengthens my contention that the tests conducted on my sample were handled in an incompetent fashion and analyzed on the basis of flawed science," Landis said in a statement emailed to The Associated Press. "The track record of scientific misconduct at Chatenay-Malabry seems to grow by the day."
