Tour De Lance: Stage 17

Lance Armstrong's Discovery teammate Paolo Savoldelli won his first Tour de France stage today, while Armstrong kept his overall lead at 2:46. Lance was in cruise control today, content to keep pace with his closest challengers, instead of going full bore after a stage win. He seems to have the big picture in mind this year, and the way he and his Discovery Channel teammates are going, championship #7 is right around the corner.
