Belarus competed at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy. The team collected one medal, a silver in Freestyle Skiing.
Alexander Lasutkin and Sergei Dolidovich were both scheduled to compete in the Men’s 30 km pursuit. However, before the Olympics a blood test showed too much hemoglobin in their blood, and they were suspended from competing for five days. They also did not compete in the Men’s team sprint competition.
