Firisel Tomai and Simona Halep’s biological passport: “Why did ITIA release the information now?”

Simona Halep’s former coach between 2008 and 2012, Firichel Tomai, details the ITIA press release regarding some “violations” in the athlete’s biological passport.

“Everyone is trying to find out the truth. Simona says that she owns the truth, others want to prove the opposite, but the ending does not happen. Under such conditions, it is very difficult to say. Why haven’t they come out yet?

This passport was analyzed a few months ago and was clean. Why now? Those in this system know the information and reality. I know the deadline was next week (May 28).

The biological passport was still within their reach. Urine and blood tests are conducted over a longer period of time. I also come home, take these samples and monitor the blood counts long term.

To the extent that it changes without reason, it is considered that you have used substances that increase your endurance and capacity for effort. There are supports that are not officially approved, but you can use them for a month and go to the tournament more muscular.

You play in a tournament for two weeks, and even if your performance decreases, you still have an advantage. It’s like a mountain. You increase hemoglobin, then when you return to normal, it decreases.

When the blood is monitored under control, these variations will be visible, and then they will see that you can also use certain things in the off-season. That’s why they chase blood” – Firisel Tomaifor Fanatik.

How Firisel Tomai predicts the end of the Simona Halep-ITIA feud

Firisel Tomai talks about the strange things that have been happening lately in connection with the trial of Simona Halep.

Simone’s former coach says that if the athlete is innocent, then it is likely that an agreement will be reached between the two sides.

“On the other side of Simona, that is, those who deal with the processes, some strange things are happening. If someone else is guilty, why not behead her, why not put an end to her? If she is not guilty, then, probably, both sides will come to an agreement.

It is difficult. I doubt this agency, if caught, will try to get rid of you. They are proud of the Simona Halep trophy. For them, Simona is a trophy. The new head of the anti-doping service has several names that she has identified and it is a matter of pride for them to say that they are effective,” he concluded. Firisel Tomai for Fanatic.

What is a biological passport?

According to the official website of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), the Athlete Biological Passport (ABP) monitors certain “biological parameters” that indirectly detect the effects of doping.

“The fundamental principle of the Athlete Biological Passport (ABP) is to monitor certain biological variables that indirectly reveal the effects of doping, instead of trying to detect the substance or method of doping itself,” WADA said, according to News.ro. .

Anti-doping organizations can integrate the biological passport into the broader framework of a strong anti-doping program to:

• to identify athletes who need additional attention through intelligent and timely interpretation of passport data. ABP provides valuable information that can be used to more effectively manage anti-doping activities such as targeted testing or investigations

• to prosecute possible Anti-Doping Rule Violations (ADRVs) under Article 2.2 (Use or Attempted Use by an Athlete of a Prohibited Substance or Prohibited Method) of the World Anti-Doping Code (Code).

Simona Halep’s hearing in the doping case is possible on May 28

In the above interview with Tennis Majors, Simona said at one point that she has a hearing scheduled for May 28, but the ITF, which has already rejected her testimony and request to lift the suspension, may request that the hearing be canceled. It remains to be seen what will happen at that point.

The ITIA sets out the steps that are usually followed in the following doping cases: testing / samples sent to the laboratory / analysis report / analysis of the results / contact with the player / provisional suspension / accusation of the athlete / player response / player fully admits / player admits only in part / decision and sanction / player rejects / court / court decision and sanction / appeal.
