From cyclingnews.com:

German Ivonne Kraft has tested positive for the asthma medication Fenoterol after a cyclo-cross race on May 6. The German federation (BDR) has opened proceedings against the 36 year-old, deciding not to wait for the B sample. She faces a six-month suspension.

In a statement, Kraft said that her mother, who suffers from asthma, attended the race, and when she tried to use her medicated spray the bottle exploded and the cyclist must have inhaled the substance at that time. :rolleyes:

didn't they put a stop to backdated TUE's shortly after LA's +? I thought that something had been done. otoh, a backdated TUE for salbutamol is exactly what Oscar provided to explain his + so maybe not.
