UCI denies breaking anti-doping rules

The UCI insists Chris Froome's therapeutic use exemption for steroids did not break anti-doping rules.

A report in the French press suggested granting Froome permission to take penisolone, during this year's Tour de Romandie to treat a chill after Team Sky doctor Alan Farrell was given the go ahead by UCI medical director Mario Zorzoli, circumvented the strict regulations.
