I remember back when Renshaw was leading Cav out for THC/High Road. If the leadout train got to the front, nobody was catching either of them. There were several stages that Cav could have slammed on brakes and let Renshaw win, then taken second because they were so far out in front. It was an incredible 1-2 punch back then.
might get flamed but they really bungled it frankly as much as I love cav the key moment was ditching philippsen for Ackerman they basically led him out if p doesn't have to start and stop and start again idk that cav wins, pedersen also way out of position and crashes chapeau to cav for surfing excellently astana actually were smart by going to the front early because they knew they would likely fade in the end compared to the stronger teams. very clever.
Especially knowing how much he's looking forward to retirement. To put it back a whole year because he knew he had 35 in him and didn't want to forever resent that last year's crash took it from him.
Congratulations to Astana for their superb support of Cavendish. It all went wrong last year but kudos to them for extending his contract and putting together a team to support him. Fantastic for Willier too ...what a marketing dream!!!
@@Lotschi Quickstep "fired" him after he won them 4 stages of TdF in 2021. Quickstep chose Fabio Jakobsen for 2022 instead, leaving Cav with no team for TdF.
If you watch the Lanterne Rouge video, how Cavendish described what happened with Morkov, Ballerini, Bol and himself was absolutely spot on. The guy remembers absolutely everything, even through emotion. He's just on it the whole time. Amazing cycling brain. Well done; so happy.
Bought into the dream and story backed him with all his resource fair enough but it is risk /reward great coverage and this shirt and it's sponsors will now be iconic and shown everywhere, so it's great business too
Just glad I have lived to watch all of this man's victories. He transcends sport. He is the total package. A fighter, a battler, ultimate skill. Thankyou Cav.
Amazing. I've always been a fan but after watching his documentary I feel for him. I was on the edge of my seat as he pulled away and even teared up a little...well done Cav!
Brilliant. Such a great achievement and a Brilliant Competitor. Knighthoods get doled out a lot but this achievement genuinely requires MORE! Mark your a Legend and it's been a pleasure watching You. Thanks
He's pretty much 40, competing with young, hungry riders in their 20's. Wins his 35th stage making history in professional cycling. What an absolute GOAT!!!!!
Now he’s retired with a win in Singapore, maybe he’ll find himself thinking that if he’s still got the legs to win at the end of the season, perhaps them old pins may still do it at the start of the next! Probably not - it’s hard to think of a better step into retirement. Best to leave us wondering!
My father followed Mark's career from the first tour but unfortunately he died three years ago so missed this day, i'm glad he didn't see Marks crash last year and subsequent retirement announcement. He said he would achieve this record and now he has. He raced against Zabel AND his son who have both since retired. To think in such a physically and mentally demanding sport there was just under 16 years between first and last stage win.....unbelievable !!
They didnt. The road was blocked so they all clunged up and couldn't continue. Then they congratulated him bc who wouldn't since you were stuck there anyway. Guy made history, but don't make up things that isn't true. Please.
I saw the documentary on his life on Neflix here in Canada. He went through so much adversity but endurance prevailed. I could not wait to see his 35th win. Beautiful, So well deserved.🥰 Please watch the doc , you will not be disappointed.!!!
What happened to all of the people who said that he's too old and he should retire? He's managed to prove a lot of people wrong, and he's done it in style against the world's best. Congratulations to Mark Cavendish!
I don’t think it’d be an exaggeration to say he couldn’t have done this without Renshaw. All those battles through the pack that he led Cav through to the front and now his sports director, perfect 👍🏻
You see the joy in a riders' face, when they win a stage of the Tour. Many riders live for that one victory that is the highlight of their careers. To see him win his 35th, after the injuries, the illnesses, the struggles; unbelievable.
SUCH A GREAT HUMAN BEING!!!! NOBODY deserves this more than Cav and it was SOOOO great that he just SMOCKED that cocky POS a$$hole yasper disaster to do it! One of the best moments in sports I've EVER witnessed. Congrats mate!
Everything Cav achieves from this point on is just gravy on top. 35 stage wins when some top riders never won one, and would give anything to do so. Happy to have watched Cav's whole TdF career on TV, and a few times stood by the road side. Hang in there Cav because I'm going to Villeneuve sur Lot on the 11th to take some photos of you.
What a guy. A human dynamite. Not to be messed with. I reckon he’ll get 3 more now. Monkey off his back. He’ll enjoy his final ever tour. So pleased for him. Well done lad ❤
Like fine wine people can get better as they age especially athletes who take good care of themselves. Don't sleep on older folks respect their wisdom. Congratulations to Mark Cavendish, such a champ, such a cyclist, such a talent. I hope he goes for more because he can do it!
CONGRATULATIONS MARK! I’m a fan and never quitted on you. You’re a great inspiration for never stop believing on yourself despite all you’ve been through. You’re indeed a legend and thank you ASTANA for never quitting on Mark. Salute to Sir Mark & the entire ASTANA Team. Cheers!
The amazing Tour de France thousands of families, watching an incredible sporting event ... to watch 'live' leaves you speechless, . Marky you have done it again . Congratulations
the way he threaded himself through the rest of the sprinters was masterful, congratulation mark cavendish you kept trying and trying, and finally you there 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍tinkoff👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
So happy to see this happen (even on screen only) in my lifetime. For someone who suffers every time the road goes upwards, this is almost unbelievable.
Never been the biggest cav fan but have listened to all this----"the standard of sprinters is so much higher than a decade ago-----" he still beat them all though 😊.
It's amazing how much the last few years have added to his legacy. He was already a giant if he'd never won past 35; but to put on the wins he has, is otherwordly.
HE BEATS the record of the greatest cyclist of all time . he is so human and honest . I watched him all these years winning in Paris in his best years . Somehow aged 39 he has managed to win again in probably the toughest event in sport .
Congrats to Cavendish. After all he's been through to break Eddie's record, supports the old adage that winners never quit! Hats off to you Mark, I am so happy for you!
Mark asking Pogi to plz dont break the record, haha! Lol! Mark this is increadible! If you ask me he is still creedy and will do every thing to win even more stages :D
This tour is already delivering hard. The netflix show is gonna be unreal.
Are they actually making it?
Oooh I hope they are making a season 3!
I doubt it. Netflix did some pretty dishonest tricky editing in the last season. A lotta teams will have pulled out
I'm not going to watch this season because the first one was horrible, but I heard this season again was all about glorifying crashes
Same here. Can't wait.
Geraint’s cheeky little impression of Cav at the end too - such a character
And it all started on a small island in the middle of the Irish sea. Congratulations, Sir Mark & his team. The GOAT.
I thought it started in Italy this year?
@@AC-wq7fo😂
@@AC-wq7fo You might be kidding, but he meant Isle of Man, where Sir Mark is from.
Single-handedly making the Isle of Man as famous for cycling as it is for motorcyling.
it started in manchester :)
Thrilled for Mark... he could still go on to win more stages. Hope he does.
I completely agree!
I'm sure Cav can do it. 🔥
He showed a clean pair of heels to Philipsen. I think he can get a 36th. Spirits in the team will be sky high.
You know cav, when he wins once he's bouta pull another win again
The haters said he was finished a few years ago and he racked up four stages in that tour.
With this Phillipsen, oh absolutely.
Renshaw from key lead out man for Cav and now his DS. What a journey for the Marks.
That must make it so special for both of them, just incredible !

@@justinbranham7708 Yes, I remember those days. Seems like Renshaw has been retired for a long time now. And Cave is still at it....
Mark Renshaw has been such a brilliant support for Cav and is himself such a wonderful person
Cav pure Legend.... boy did he have to fight for #35... Chapeau Cav.
might get flamed but they really bungled it frankly as much as I love cav the key moment was ditching philippsen for Ackerman they basically led him out if p doesn't have to start and stop and start again idk that cav wins, pedersen also way out of position and crashes chapeau to cav for surfing excellently astana actually were smart by going to the front early because they knew they would likely fade in the end compared to the stronger teams. very clever.

Amazing. Glad he did this without quick step on his jersey after what they did leaving him off the tour.
yeah, I want to see an interview with Patrick Lefevere. 🤣
@@jorgechang7595 They actually did one, and Patrick took some of the credit, of course.
What happened?
How did he come to race for Quickstep in the first place?

I love Geraint Thomas' sly little "at his age" comment (since he's 38 lol). Chapeau, Cav.
wasnt sly at all, he even thought momentarily is this the right way to say it and at the end of the day it was haha
Well done cav I've enjoyed watching you over the years you deserve this record.
Thanks for the Astana team, so happy to see such kind and commitment from a team for the cycling. Cong for the team too!
I really have to give it to vinokourov who gave him the opportunity, two years in a row. His belief and generosity needs to be celebrated.
Bought into the dream and story backed him with all his resource fair enough but it is risk /reward great coverage and this shirt and it's sponsors will now be iconic and shown everywhere, so it's great business too
@@frazmars he was robbed 2 years ago not to go to the tour
Dumped by dutch team protecting Merckx record, british team gave up on him it's ironic Kazakhstan did it for him
Just glad I have lived to watch all of this man's victories. He transcends sport. He is the total package. A fighter, a battler, ultimate skill. Thankyou Cav.
What a hero,not given the credit he deserves
Amazing. I've always been a fan but after watching his documentary I feel for him. I was on the edge of my seat as he pulled away and even teared up a little...well done Cav!
I'm not crying, you are crying 😂

He's already proved he can do it at 38 in last year's Giro.
Who could doubt him at 39 now.
