    To be fair to them, they're got four different articles about yesterday's stage (and two further articles). The main article (with video) is headlined "Cavendish wins third stage"

    It's an Australian report, for Australians, hence it headlines on Australian riders.

    I bet there's a British newspaper or website somewhere talking about 'Bradley Wiggins' team' coming second today.

    It does talk about Contador & Armstrong and Astana, plus Canch and Sastre and Menchov, but not Cavendish.
    But the whole thread of the report is about the effect on GC - and the fact that Cav won has no effect on GC, so they don't report it in much the same way as they probably wouldn't have if the break had stayed away and Demoulin had won.
