Water is wet, the sky is blue, someone cheated in the Tour de France


This is Alexandre Vinokourov, one time favorite to win the Tour de France for make benefit glorious nation of Kazakhstan. Today his team, Astana, pulled out of the race after Vinokourov's positive test for an illegal blood transfusion.

This means that three of the four Kazakhs participating in the Tour are now out of the race. But for those who still want to make Borat jokes, there's still Dmitriy Fofonov, who is currently 40 minutes behind the leader. Great success!

That looks like a mean fucking choke hold. Or maybe he hurts from all of the doping those queer bike riders are doing.
