Tour de France runner-up Romain Bardet (Ag2r) says that he was 'amazed' at Bradley Wiggins's therapeutic use exemption certificates and says that there should be a review of corticosteroid use.

Bardet was speaking to French newspaper Le Monde, and said that he was amazed that Wiggins received corticosteroid injections prior to the Grand Tours. Details of Wiggins TUEs were leaked online by the Fancy Bears hacking group, who had illegally obtained the confidential records from the World Anti-Doping Agency's computer system.
