Bradley Wiggins has said the Dr Richard Freeman case "stinks to high heaven", and that although he doesn't believe the order of the banned Testogel was for a rider, that a further investigation is necessary to uncover exactly what happened in order to remove the "cloud hanging over" the whole scandal.

"The whole think stinks to high heaven. It's been ten years now but it wants looking into further. Yes he's been found guilty and it falls on his head but who else's head does it fall on? Now, can we look into it a bit further and ask 'what exactly happened? Someone must know?'" Wiggins said on his Eurosport podcast.
