There are cross-country skiers included with alleged anti-doping rule violations, all of which relate to the tampering of samples during Sochi 2014. Cases that occurred during the period of the Olympic Winter Games come under the results and case management authority of the IOC, and FIS is liaising closely with the IOC in order to undertake a number of follow up actions within its own authority as soon as possible which includes the possibility of provisional suspensions. Due to the size of the accompanying Evidentiary Documentation Package, the details are still being reviewed.

FIS is in ongoing contact with the dedicated group at WADA which is working with the McLaren Investigation Team for further specific questions. Any such actions will be managed in accordance with the FIS Anti-Doping Rules in compliance with the World Anti-Doping Code. This also means that the names of the athletes will not be communicated until the outcome of an eventual case is decided.

FIS shares the frustrations of its stakeholders in our sport, specifically those of the athletes competing in the same sport, and the desire for clear and decisive action. FIS is equally shocked and disappointed by the findings in the McLaren Report as it is an attack on the integrity of fair and clean sport and FIS will continue to do everything in its power to ensure a fair and equal playing field for all of its competitors, especially considering the fact that the ski season 2016/2017 is in full swing and important competitions are approaching.
