    Sh!tting heck, Cavendish can pull it out of the bag when he has to. Harrogate-gate a distant memory. Nasty crash behind as someone clipped a barrier...

    Wow - well done Cab! Got to admit, didn't think he was capable of that any more...

    Jumped on Sagan's wheel perfectly there. EBH did a great job for him and rewarded by being taken out by the Katusha rider. Bora rider looks like he's done a collarbone.

    McClay gets a top 10 too.

    Just faster too. Kittel maybe in the wind too soon but even so. Phwoar.

    The Manx Missile does it again, number 27!

    The overhead shot shows he won by a couple of bike lengths.

    That was almost as good as when he smoked everyone on the Champs Elysees a few years back. Classic Cavendish - wheel hopping, slipstreaming, leg pumping little Manx monkey. :)

    Really pleased for him... after so many great stage wins over the years to end up in YELLOW is just great. And a well ridden win at that.
