Cavendish post-stage: “The whole team was fabulous. I had everyone around me. We dropped back on each climb, but we stayed together and moved as a unit to the front afterwards. All the big motors we still with me in the final 4 km. Renshaw produced at least a thousand watts for the final 500m! I just stayed behind him. [Michal] Kwiatkowski was disappointed after [losing the overall race lead] yesterday, but today we can celebrate and hopefully get another win tomorrow with another member of our team.” | share this photo |
