Again my fascination for the Tour de France keeps me watching the old clips of the greatness of Lance Armstrong. I posted 11 days ago on the greatest stage of Tour de France which Armstrong prevailed in a suspenseful and dramatic ascent to Luz Ardiden.

The video above was dubbed as “The Look!” which Lance Armstrong looked at his rival Jan Ullrich just as he pedalled for an attack in the mountain.

The whole day everybody noticed that Armstrong was at the back of Ullrich and his cohorts. Phil Ligget and Paul Sherwin even calling that Armstrong had no energy and that he was always on the defensive.

At the right time Lance and his teammate Chuchu Rubiera launched a fast acceleration that Ullrich couldn’t match. Armstrong had won the mind game and the power game this day.
