The first doping scandal played at the World Athletics Championship, which continues in the capital of France. The doping industry of the winner in the running of 100 meters of the dark-skinned American Kelly White, when analyzing, showed the Modafinil content. This is a stimulator related to the class of amphitamins.
As the Vice-President of the International Association of athletics federations, Swede, Arne Lunkvist, explained to reporters at the emergency press conference, the athlete will be deprived of a gold medal, and the issue of her disqualification will be resolved after further investigation and clarification of the nature of the modapinil: if it is assigned to the Ephedrine class, the White will be finished off by public censure, the White will be finished. And its result at the World Cup will be canceled.
If the modafin is recognized as amphitamins, the athlete is waiting for a two -year disqualification. As for White’s performance in the 4x100 meters relay, the leadership of the American delegation, according to the Lunquist, was warned that, in the event of the victory of the American team, its result can be canceled in the event of a White, and its doping professional will again give a positive result, inform ITAR-TASS.
Another White gold medal, won 200 meters, can now go to the Russian woman Anastasia Kapachinskaya. The results of Doping Control White have not yet been published after competitions for 200 meters, but the Lunquist almost has no doubt that they will be similar to those that came after running 100 meters.
