His result will be seen as disappointing because a pair of his most dangerous rivals, Iban Mayo of Spain and another American, Tyler Hamilton, took the top two places overall.
Armstrong, 32, has won the Dauphine for the past two years, using the race which crosses mountain roads similar to the Tour de France to fine-tune himself for the July marathon.
