On Monday, prosecutor Silje Bergsholm announced that Northug is suspected of speeding, for being under the influence of drugs and drug possession.

The blood sample that the ski icon Petter Northug took after he was stopped is analyzed at Oslo University Hospital and according to Norwegian NTB, it can take a couple of weeks before you get an answer.

Therefore, Bergsholm can not answer whether there will be a prosecution that could lead to imprisonment.

- It is a bit early to say now, as it is so early in the examination and the answer from the blood test has not come, she says to NRK.
