- Buen artículo, pero quiero ver datos: ¿cuántos controles nocturnos hubo por equipo esta semana? Sin eso, es difícil juzgar si hubo trato desigual. Merci!

- Mohorič being this candid is rare. Also, small correction: it’s not “night testing is banned”—it’s allowed with those “serious suspicion” criteria. The question is whether that threshold was actually met.

- Vaughters has a point—cycling’s past means overcorrection now. But the protocols should be predictable: announce a consistent out-of-competition schedule window and rotate unannounced timing without hammering the same teams two nights running.

- As a casual viewer: are these tests blood, urine, or both? And how long do they take at the hotel room? If it’s an hour+ that’s a big interruption.

- Agree with Matej on “human limits.” Riders were finishing late due to long stages/transfers. A 5 a.m. control after midnight bedtime is basically cutting deep sleep cycles. Marginal gains don’t matter if the system chops your REM phase.

- This reads slightly one-sided. Where’s the response from the agency or the UCI to the “commercial motive” claim? Feels like we needed their comment before publishing that angle.

- If Paul Seixas really wasn’t checked while GC rivals were, that’s a massive inconsistency. Either test everyone in contention or don’t do it at all that night. Otherwise, you distort recovery and potentially the race outcome.

- Can someone clarify why they can test “late” but not “nighttime”? Is there an official window in the WADA/ITU rules, or is it just that 11pm–6am block needs “serious and consistent suspicions”? Bit confused on that part.

- Strong piece. Night tests aren’t new, but the frequency this Tour is wild. If controls are outside 11pm–6am, they’re technically okay, but teams getting woken after midnight post-transfer isn’t exactly safeguarding recovery. Mohorič voicing what riders whisper is significant.

Remco is always more charming as a winner than as a loser, when he often pouts, whines and makes excuses.
