Tour Of California Comes To L.A., Levi Holds Lead

PASADENA, Calif. (AP) ― Rinaldo Nocentini of Italy has lunged ahead of New Zealand's Hayden Roulston at the finish line to win Stage 7 of the Tour of California.

American Levi Leipheimer of Astana retained his overall lead Saturday after the 88.9-mile leg from Santa Clarita to Pasadena's historic Rose Bowl.

Nocentini of AG2R La Mondiale won by less than a bike length, finishing in 3 hours, 24.44 seconds. Rabobank's Pieter Weening of the Netherlands was third in the three-man sprint to the finish.

Lance Armstrong, who began a comeback last month, wasn't among the stage leaders as he rode in support of Leipheimer, his Astana teammate.
