Italian rider Dario Frigo was detained by police on Wednesday before the start of the 11th stage of the Tour de France after banned drugs were found in his wife’s car, his Fassa Bortolo team said. Frigo was forced to pull out of the 2001 Giro d’Italia when Italian police found drugs in his hotel room.

The other was a mask of pain worn by Jan Ullrich, his German rival trailing farther and farther behind. Armstrong took a giant step toward a seventh Tour de France victory with a dominant ride on Tuesday.
