HOWEVER they should have their own category to compete in, so it´s not unfair for the other athletes that don´t go under that genetic therapy. If in the future that would be the case, I would be thrilled to watch a "natural" athlete holding a better record than one with DNA modifications.

I’m not sure what they’re planning since I can’t find any details on the proposal, but gene doping in sports has been discussed before. After another tainted season, the UCI-ProTour council said it wanted to create a scientific profile of the top riders to which their performances could be compared. Beyond the medical feasibility of DNA testing, the legal implications of such a measure must be studied.
