    I am so sick to hear about medals , there was podium and they stand and received toys . Why no one blame the LABORATORY? It’s their fault to create all this mess , ruining all the moments on Olympics. Life of Kamila Valieva ruined (10 years of hard work gone) all medals gone . 4 years ban kills all what she learn since 5 years old . Reputation in mess . It’s would be okay for runners , but figure skating is a lot more than just running . So many details , art, flexibility can be given from God only . No one can perform as she is under what ever medication . Why no one talking about clean probes for Olympics, for European championship???????????????

    No one is interested in knowing the truth😢 the main thing for America, Canada, Japan is to get medals, and for this to deprive Russians of medals. That’s why Kamila Valieva suffered, so that the United States gets gold, I’m sure of it. I am sure that the girl was framed with a dirty sample and it was planned in advance, suspicion on RUSADA, because it was RUSADA that had serious violations: 1 Valieva’s sample was not marked as a priority, 2 RUSADA at the Russian Championship used a new form for doping tests, where the exact age was indicated and where the sample was taken from, and there was only one Valieva, 15 years old, so it was not difficult to find out who exactly the sample belonged to. WADA forms never indicate age or any other information that can be used to determine who owns the doping sample. Why did RUSADA change the form? 3. RUSADA did not ensure that Valieva’s doping test was checked on time. Although another Russian skater, knowing that his sample was not ready from the European Championship, was able to force WADA to issue the result on time. Why couldn't RUSADA do this then? I don't believe in so many coincidences! RUSADA clearly knows more than they say, and for some reason they were very interested in this whole situation, clearly Valieva was supposed to perform in the team and only after that the results were announced. I'm very interested in who ordered Valieva?

    What B.S. the time limit for the results to be made known was 20 days not over 40+. If this had happened to a US athlete they would have thrown it out because holding these samples that long at a lab, they can become prone to contamination or tampering. No-one would accept those results. They should investigate the lab.

    We need to do it easier at the next Olympiad. To give the gold medals to the American team immediately. And you don't have to come to the Olympics. Distribute the medals according to the list and send them by mail. It is very profitable. You don't have to spend money on the construction of Olympic facilities, hotels and tickets. Very convenient.

    Canada didn't deserve the bronze, they were 21 points behind Russia. Even with a Russian skater just lying on the ice and doing nothing whatsoever, it was enough for Russia to be 8 points higher than Canada - so any forbidden substance consumed Kamila wasn't able to change anything. Kondratiuk, Mishina/Galliamov, and Sinitsina/Katsalapov won their bronze fair and square -- 3 Russian competitors got more points than 4 Canadian competitors, just think about it!

    Stamina yes, that's the point, it's a performance enhancing drug which is most useful during training. Once you are at the comp you no longer need it since you're not skating nearly as much as you would be during training/practice. Ws Kamila aware of what was going into er body? I doubt it. Should she be? Absolutely. To think the young athletes (who are just 1 year shy of being held accountable) aren't conscious of this at all is silly. They know, they just trust their coach and team too much that they let their guards down. Other Eteri students have claimed to practice for 10+ hours a day, that is not normal. The biggest scandal here is that her team was never investigated, the ruling was made against the skater since that's all they can do. The federation needs to investigate her team but of course they won't, they think everyone is innocent. The fact that she is still with the same coach and team and even defends them is even worse.

    The results of checking Valieva’s samples were falsified by the Stockholm laboratory. Since the analysis of samples using the generally accepted method did not reveal anything, a new technique was developed especially for Valieva, with which you can identify any element of the periodic table and, if desired, suspend any athlete from the competition. Well, with the exception of the American ones, the pharmacological content of which is included in advance in the therapeutic exceptions.

    But Canada was still far enough behind to lose to Russia with both ladies short and free skate subtracted from the total. That tells you the level of skating from Canada….their ladies singles and pairs (and ice dance) decreased with the retirements of Katelyn Osmond, Duhamel-Radford, and Virtue-Moir. They are in need of a rebuild, which happens with the departure of your best athletes. So Honestly, they deducted points from the doping athlete, and they still won bronze. Those other skaters on her team did nothing wrong!

Check how her age info was leaked by RUSADA on the doping testing forms, and how WADA tested 9 times with negative results, and then developed a new method in a few days, making the 10th test positive on Feb 07 2022. WADA announced the positive test results 44 days later, which was the day Kamila won the team gold for Russia. The medal ceremony was supposed to happen on Feb 07 2022, but team USA requested IOC to postpone so as to include Vincent Zhou! How come there were so many coincidences in this case?!

    Valieva did not lie, but said it as it is, that there are 3 possible ways for the substance to enter: through contamination of approved drugs, contamination of food products, and the third is the possibility of malicious intent on the part of competitors. Valieva stated that she did not specifically take this drug and CAS believed her, calling Kamila an honest person and admitting that she was not a fraud!

    Canada deserved that bronze medal. Russia can pretty much win all the gold, silver, bronze in ladies single (and pairs - though I never followed pairs) and would win that team gold in 2026 (although, I don't think team medal would make a skater relevant). Canada has been on a zero medal haul since 2019 and this medal would boost their funding.
