I am think of the 4 x 100 relay in London. Canada won a medal but were DQ'd because of a lane violation. This is from memory thou.

If a member of a bobsled team tests positive, isn't the whole team punted.
I don't know it is all very confusing... according to the press release it said he is disqualified from the Canada Latvia match, however according to the IIHF stat sheet he played 16:36 mins in that game.

The IOC's release also makes no mention of the whole Latvian team being disqualified.
