Yes, he was beaten by Kittel in 2013. However his year was not bad. I think he was a bit tired after racing the Giro with the horribly cold conditions. Then that 3day race inbetween instead of resting ahead of the Tour.
IMO if Cavendish has trained well, he'll be marginally weaker than Kittel and beat him at least 2 times out of 6.
