It appears that Spain's Oscar Pereiro (Caisse d'Epargne-Illes Balears), who celebrated the yellow jersey as overall leader following the 200.5 km 17th stage of the Tour de France, might ultimately be declared the winner. Pereiro said on Saturday that he felt like the true Tour de France champion after confirmation of a drug test for Floyd Landis. Pereiro finished second overall, thanks to a 30-minute gift by Landis and the rest of the peleton earlier in the race. (Franck Fife/AFP/Getty Images)
