British Olympic bosses lost the court case that resulted in them no longer being able to give a lifeime ban to those who used drugs to help them perform better. An international sport court has ruled that it's against the World Anti-Doping Agency's global code. It means that athletes like Dwain Chambers can run in the Olympic Games in 2012. He tested positive for steroids in 2003 and served a 2 year athletics ban. He will still have to join the others fighting for a place to qualify though!
Cyclist David Millar is another athlete who was given a lifetime Olympic ban.
