The vast majority of French sports fans believe the success of Britain's cyclists at the Olympics has been 'tainted by cheating,' a poll has revealed. They suggest that anything from drugs to illegal technology may have been used by Team GB as it won nine medals in the Velodrome, including seven golds. By contrast, the French have won three silver medals, finishing second to the British in two events. A rolling internet poll for leading sports magazine L'Equipe currently asks: 'Do you think the performance of British cyclists at the London Games has been tainted by cheating?' By late afternoon today, a resounding 70 percent of readers had answered 'Yes' with just 24 per cent replying 'No' and the rest undecided. It follows the French saying Team GB’s riders, including Sir Chris Hoy and Laura Trott, were hiding their ‘magic wheels’ after races. France team director Isabelle Gautheron said: ‘We are asking a lot of questions: how have they gained so many tenths of seconds?’ ‘Have they found a new training process based on certain energy pathways? I am not talking about any illicit product, because anti-doping tests are so strong. ‘We are looking a lot at the kit they use. They hide their wheels a lot. The ones for the bikes they race on are put in wheel covers at the finish.’ There have also been barely disguised insinuations about the British using a ‘special preparation’ towards their success, although the French have stopped short of directly accusing their rivals of using drugs. L’Equipe defended their controversial poll, saying that many readers had noted ‘a(chǎn) certain chauvinism and lack of fair play’ among the British during London 2012. It suggested that media tycoon Rupert Murdoch and his BskyB ‘galaxy’ had been able to throw thousands of pounds into British cycling, giving it an unfair advantage against a country which traditionally sees itself as the home of cycling.

一項(xiàng)民意調(diào)查顯示，絕大多數(shù)法國(guó)體育愛(ài)好者認(rèn)為英國(guó)自行車手奧運(yùn)比賽獲得成功涉嫌作弊。 他們認(rèn)為英國(guó)隊(duì)可能采用興奮劑或非法技術(shù)等方法獲得了9塊室內(nèi)自行車競(jìng)賽獎(jiǎng)牌，其中包括7塊金牌。 相比之下，法國(guó)隊(duì)則只獲得了3枚銀牌，有兩場(chǎng)比賽都屈居英國(guó)之后，排在第二。 主流體育雜志《隊(duì)報(bào)》日前發(fā)起的一份滾動(dòng)網(wǎng)上民意調(diào)查發(fā)問(wèn)：“你認(rèn)為英國(guó)自行車隊(duì)在倫敦奧運(yùn)會(huì)比賽中的表現(xiàn)是否涉嫌作弊？” 截至昨日傍晚，多達(dá)70%的讀者回答“是”，只有24%回答“否”，其余人表示不確定。 此前，法國(guó)隊(duì)，包括克里斯?霍伊爵士和勞拉?特羅特都說(shuō)英國(guó)隊(duì)車手在比賽結(jié)束后將他們的“魔法車輪”藏了起來(lái)。 法國(guó)隊(duì)隊(duì)長(zhǎng)伊莎貝爾?高斯隆說(shuō)：“我們有很多疑問(wèn)：他們?cè)趺茨芴崴倌敲炊?？?/p> “他們是基于某種能量轉(zhuǎn)換途徑，發(fā)現(xiàn)了新的訓(xùn)練方法嗎？我指的不是非法藥物，因?yàn)榉磁d奮劑測(cè)試非常嚴(yán)格。 “我們反復(fù)觀察他們使用的裝備。他們蓋住了車輪的大部分。騎到終點(diǎn)時(shí)，他們的自行車裝備都放進(jìn)了車輪蓋內(nèi)?！?/p> 盡管法國(guó)人現(xiàn)在已不再直接指責(zé)對(duì)手服用興奮劑，但他們還是近乎赤裸裸地影射英國(guó)為贏得勝利做了一些“特殊準(zhǔn)備”。 《隊(duì)報(bào)》為其頗有爭(zhēng)議的民意調(diào)查辯解稱，很多讀者都指出2012年倫敦奧運(yùn)會(huì)中英國(guó)存在“相當(dāng)程度的沙文主義而且缺乏公平競(jìng)爭(zhēng)”。 該調(diào)查顯示，傳媒大亨魯伯特?默多克和他的英國(guó)天空廣播公司“銀河”已為英國(guó)自行車比賽投入數(shù)千英鎊，這使得英國(guó)在與自詡為自行車運(yùn)動(dòng)故鄉(xiāng)的法國(guó)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)時(shí)占據(jù)了不公平的優(yōu)勢(shì)。 相關(guān)閱讀 美公務(wù)員上班看奧運(yùn)被叫停 恐致網(wǎng)絡(luò)癱瘓 奧運(yùn)選手飲食大揭密：運(yùn)動(dòng)員吃什么？ 各國(guó)奧運(yùn)獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)大盤點(diǎn) 獎(jiǎng)金可達(dá)60萬(wàn)英鎊 德國(guó)人譏笑倫敦奧運(yùn)會(huì)變“奧運(yùn)災(zāi)難” （中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)網(wǎng)英語(yǔ)點(diǎn)津 陳丹妮 編輯：Julie） |
