"Dumoulin would be unable to race with such a certificate if he wanted to. His Giant-Alpecin team is one of seven of the 18 teams who are part of the voluntary Movement for a Credible Cycling (MPCC). They follow stricter rules than WADA and the UCI require. One rule states that a team must pull a rider from competition for eight days if he needs use a corticosteroid for asthma.

Sky and other top teams like Etixx-QuickStep never joined the MPCC."
