      Similar here, think it was 2010 when I saw him win on the Champs-Elysees when I was 9 and really vividly remember I was just so stunned at his speed, like he'd been fired out of a rocket and everyone else was standing still. Just in awe of his achievements, the rest of the HTC and Sky highs, the lows after the yellow jersey year and the resurgence that even I'd given up on, just incredible

    Won't forget interailing in France in 2008. Won't forget this. The way he surfed through the wheels like he was conducting an opera in front of him was magical and instructive of his instinct.

    Pretty cool that Cav breaks the record with a sprint that clearly shows the experience and strategy of his discipline, and not just a perfect leadout, a reduced field, or some mistake from his opponents. Glad he got to do it in style. Curious to see if he gets another this tour. If Jasper continues to look this unremarkable, and Pederson is truly banged up, then he may yet win a few.

      @@great_live_music He should not have been allowed to keep it. He changed lane after launching his sprint, this led to all the other sprinters changing lanes and ultimately led to the crash of Pedersen. The exact rule of sprinting is worded as follows:"Riders shall be strictly forbidden to deviate from the lane they selected when launching
      into the sprint and, in so doing, endangering others." Did Cav change lane after launching, definitely! Did it endanger others? Pedersen crashing would not have happened if the others kept to their lanes. Thus it is easy to argue that the lane changing did endanger others.

The move didn't impede any other riders sprint, Pedersens crash was a result of going for a gap that was closing naturally as the bunch straightened up out of the corner

      @@JeppeAchtonNielsen Hard disagree, the video evidence shows Cav moved into an empty lane and didn't cut off anyone else.
      At 7:30 you can clearly see the huge open space around Cav. Philipsen is the one who swerves across the road and cuts off several other riders. The rider in red behind Philipsen at 7:31 doesn't move at all despite Philipsen jumping in front of him, so clearly his lane is unaffected.
      It's the rider in red and yellow behind that guy who cuts hard left into the barriers that causes the chain reaction sending Pedersen into the barriers at 7:32.
      Pedersen's crash had nothing to do with Cav or even Philipsen, and Philipsen's maneuver was far more dangerous to the other riders. The fact that nobody threw their hands up in protest further proves the point.

And I loved seeing him beating Jasper Philipsen to get number 36. Jasper is a smug arrogant bully that got out sprinted by a 39 year old man, and his reaction after getting beat says it all about what kind a racer he is he just rides by Mark and doesn't congratulate Mark at all like all the other sprinters did..I wouldn't be surprised if he gets another win or 2 more.

    Have watched the TdF avidley every year since 2001, and I remember a young upstart sprinter appearing on the scene in 2008, cockily declaring that he was the fastest in the world. But he very quickly started backing up his claims, his wins became some of the most exciting stage finishes on the Tour; and over the years he became one of the greatest riders in Tour history. Then in 2016 it was all over, and even though it was sad, it made sense after 8 years as a GT professional. I don't think the '35' has been Sir Marks primary objective, I just think he wanted to finish his career on a high, rather than having to retire through illness, or after being scraped of the road with a broken shoulder. Anyway, Mark you are a true legend, a sporting GOAT, and thanks for all the thrills and spills over the years!

At that time Jakobsen has not won anything yet in the season or have placing top 3 or top5, I could be wrong. But Im very sure of the form Cav has that time of 2022 before TdF.

    I’m very happy Cav launched his attack to the left opening a massive gap so that Philipsen didn’t have to push anyone to the barriers this time. If the gap was any smaller this would have ended up in a crash, Philipsen didn’t even look to the left before starting his maneuver.

    Knowing how much Cavendish wanted to retire and then the fact he pushed it back an entire year purely to try and get that stage win, because he knew he had it in him before the crash last year.
    And then to do it, at 39. So happy.
