Armstrong failed to win the Prologue. If he had hoped to
wear the Yellow Jersey for the 1st Stage, he must be a bit
disapppointed.
On the other hand, Armstrong is probably pleased that he
took a few seconds out of Ullrich, Hamilton, Mayo, and
the other Top Contenders. Last year, Hamilton and Ullrich
had placed higher in the Prologue, than had Lance. All in
all, not a bad start for Armstrong.
