Yet when pressed about 35, a victory that would put Cavendish in a class of his own, he demurred much like he has been since the Tour started and the chatter of the all-time record heated up with each victory. “It’s the same ambition to win one more as it was to win one 13 years ago,” he said during a Zoom call. “Every opportunity there is for a sprint I’d like to win. That’s why we’re here to try to perform. There is no sentiment to the thinking of wanting to win, but just wanting to win every time the situation arises.

It was another spectacle of carnage among the peloton on the roads of France as riders hit some loose gravel on the road with 62 kilometres to go, many hitting the ground and others careering off the edge of the road and down a steep slope into the treeline. Riders struggled to remount and continue the race, Tim Declercq (Deceuninck-QuickStep), Soren Kragh Andersen (Team DSM), Roger Kluge (Lotto Soudal) Simon Yates, Chris Juul-Jensen (both Team BikeExchange) appeared the worst off, Kluge abandoned the race immediately but the others remounted and continued with the race.   Yates abandoned t...

It was one of the toughest days of the Tour de France, and while the front of the race saw Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) go one better after his second in the bunch sprint the day before to win a mountain stage, at the back it was the man who beat Van Aert the day before that finished one of the furthest behind, rolling over the line 40 minutes and 40 seconds in arrears. The green jersey holder beat the time cut by seven minutes after almost six hours of racing, finishing alongside Deceuninck-QuickStep teammates Davide Ballerini, Michael Mørkøv, Tim Declercq and Dries Devenyns.

Roglič came over the line by himself in 56th, over three minutes down on the day, slipping down to 15th on the general classification, a poor indication of the dominance he displayed during the eight days of racing. "How to say it? It's not the stage we were hoping for, I did some mistakes today. With the first one I dislocated the left shoulder and then one more time…" Roglič said, trailing off in his talk of the second fall.   "I just gave it all but unfortunately couldn't catch the first guys anymore. It's a little pity but we'll go on to the next [races]."
