The original medalists.

The four-man bobsleigh competition at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia was held at the Sliding Center Sanki near Krasnaya Polyana, Russia on 22–23 February 2014.[1]

On 24 November 2017, the IOC imposed a life ban on bobsledder Alexandr Zubkov.[2] He was stripped of 2 gold medals (two-man and four-man bobsleigh). On November 27 IOC imposed similar sanctions to members of the same team Dmitry Trunenkov and Alexey Negodaylo.[3] On 29 November 2017, IOC also sanctioned Alexander Kasjanov, Ilvir Huzin and Aleksei Pushkarev for doping offences and stripped their team of results.[4] On 18 December 2017, Alexey Voyevoda also received a lifetime ban from the Olympic Games due to doping violations at the 2014 Winter Olympics.[5] This means that when the IOC decides to reallocate the medals, they are expected to be awarded to: Latvia (LAT), United States (USA) and Great Britain & N.Ireland (GBR)
