More Tour insanity

Rasmussen has been kicked off by his team (well done Rabbobank) and the entire Cofidis team have been taken off because one of theirs tested positive. Which serves Bradley Wiggins right, if you are mean about Vino bad things happen. Admittedly this means that there are just 140 riders left, which is getting more than a little ridiculous.

Does anyone know how long it takes for them to do B-tests, because I'm wondering how long it'll take before d'Affair Vino will end. I'm kind of hoping that he'll get 9 months, but I have a horrid feeling that its now 2 years minimum for doping, which kind of blows his Tour chances out of the water for good.
