Floyd Landis l'homme qui a fait tomber Lance Armstrong

Le cycliste de la Pennsylvanie a vécu une carrière fructueuse avant de devenir le premier vainqueur du Tour de France à perdre son titre en raison du dopage. Après avoir appuyé Armstrong au sein de l'équipe U.S. Postal, Landis se retrouvera au coeur de la controverse qui entraînera la chute du texan. Landis vit maintenant au Colorado où il cultive de la marijuana.

 "In this drama without heroes, Landis doesn’t think that the disgrace he and Armstrong have undergone has ultimately done much good for the sport. “Taking me down and taking Armstrong down did nothing,” he said. “It was an utter failure because the UCI and wada [the World Anti-Doping Agency] are still lying to kids and making them think that they can become top athletes clean. And they know that you can’t.” (The UCI said that the TUE system was strengthened in 2014 and is now “fully safeguarded.” wada said that it is becoming more and more difficult for athletes to cheat without getting caught, and that it is possible for athletes to succeed without doping.)"
