A little less than three months from suspension that deprived him of a Tour de Ski and of a World Cup, Martin Johnsrud Sundby seems to have changed radically opinion about his responsibilities & agrave; in case.

A hot, the Norwegian had in fact claimed to have only later received medical indications, and therefore not considered guilty. In this version, also supported by the Norwegian federation, responsibility & agrave; He fell on the shoulders of Dr. Knut Gabrielsen.
Time seems to memorize options bringing Sundby to very different conclusions: & ldquo; I know that in recent times there & egrave; debated a lot on my case, perci memorize options I want to be as & ugrave; clearly as possible: the responsibility & agrave; & Egrave; my 100%. They are legally responsible, and it is I who have to pay, with disqualification and loss of some results & rdquo ;.
Beyond the & agrave; dell & rsquo; obvious but legitimate afterthought, the words of Sundby rekindled a controversy gi & agrave; raised in Norway. Soon after the disqualification, in fact, the Federation had undertaken to repay all economic rewards revoked all & rsquo; athlete following the judgment, equal to one million and one hundred thousand euro. Some voices have criticized the decision to return the money to those who had lost following a disqualification for doping; now that the direct question you & egrave; assumed responsibility & agrave; dell & rsquo; happened, the objections are new topics.
& Ldquo; The rules are very clear and unambiguous, it was time for Sundby will assume its responsibilities & agrave; & rdquo ;, said Ernst A. Lersveen, TV2 experienced, always very critical about the line taken by & rsquo; athlete and the federation. & Ldquo; I wonder to memorize options what the consequences of these words. For now & egrave; a & rsquo; admission that only serves to make up a & rsquo; image. Sundby must return the money he received. Otherwise, any athlete suspended for doping give & agrave; blame the doctor and sperer & agrave; to reclaim the money from the Fed & rdquo ;.
Quest & rsquo; last has to memorize options let it be known, via the & rsquo; communication officer Espen Graff, who does not intend to review the decision: & ldquo; Martin points out something that & egrave; always clear. The responsibility & agrave; Legal & egrave; always been his, and for that & egrave; He was disqualified. However the Fed & egrave; assumed the responsibility & agrave; the Medical Council that gave rise to the issue. What & egrave; why Sundby you & egrave; been in this situation and for which we have chosen to give back the prizes & rdquo ;.
Lersveen and Graff have battibeccato also now very well known about the circumstances of positivity & agrave; Sundby. Sign that the controversy terr & agrave; probably bench until at least next month, when the athletes will return to compete on skis.
