Lance Armstrong says the Tour de France organizer’s new president is being pretentious by claiming that the seven-time champion has “embarrassed” cycling’s premier race. Armstrong said comments made by Jean-Etienne Amaury astounded him. “The last time I checked I won the Tour seven straight years and was never once found to be guilty of doping despite seven years of intense scrutiny,” he said. “We won clean and fair — where’s the embarrassment in that? While I love the event and France’s people, I cannot accept this sort of grandstanding.” The Associated Press
