Cheating is an act of
lying, deception, fraud, trickery, imposture, or imposition. That would mean, either the team knew the rules and knew the consequences OR they didn't know what they were feeding Haga was the inappropriate thing and it was illegal. How do you think Yamaha racing felt about the teams mis-judgement of the situation? These are professional racers, professional teams, if they thought anything was going to happen with the illicid drug intake from Haga, they would have forced him to not take it. These guys don't dick around and they obviously didn't know because if they did, they'd not bother showing up to race. It costs way too much money to race at that level to clown around with drugs and rule book regulations.
Perhaps Haga was doing it behind everyones back? But if that were the case, he should have been kicked off the team.
