Title:

CYCLING-USA-ARMSTRONG-TOUR-FRA

Caption: French director of Tour de France cycling race, Christian Prudhomme, answers journalists' questions on October 22, 2012 in Issy-les-Moulineaux, near Paris, after US cyclist Lance Armstrong was banned by the International Cycling Union (UCI) as the world cycling body upheld an earlier doping sanction handed to the seven-times Tour de France champion. The UCI said it would not contest sanctions already handed down by the US Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), stripping the cancer survivor of all of his results since August 1998 and earning him a ban for life.
