Race leader Rasmussen from Denmark kicked out of Tour de France

The reputation of the Tour de France lies in tatters this morning after race leader Michael Rasmussen was kicked out of the competition and sacked his Rabobank Team. The Dane, who was favourite to win the race, has been sacked for lying about his whereabouts during training in June. The fresh development follows the withdrawal of the Confidis and Astana teams after doping scandals.
