Ooih, I'm not sure.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Cav takes it

Philipsen whining but they moved towards each other, should've been Merlier

 

[Barnacle Bill]

Wow, Cav wins that drag race

 

[red_flanders]

Cav! Amazing.

 

[OldCranky]

Oh get in Cav you legend

 

[Pricey_sky]

Yes Cav!!

2 more to go, he’s coming Eddy!

 

[BigCoward]

Unless Andy Murray wins Wimbledon this is the best comeback in sport this year.

 

[titan31]

Alpecin are just idiots again. Merlier is faster, just go with him

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

Greatest comeback in procycling?

 

[Salvarani]

Insane... and amazing!

What a team he has also, but you gotta be good to execute it and he is riding with so much confidence again.

 

[Scarponi]

Cavendish with two wins in green in 2021. Strange times

 

[spalco]

Alpecin are just idiots again. Merlier is faster, just go with him

Their leadout was fantastic, it was really served up on a plate there.

"these courses are too unsafe"

cavendish cuts over three bike widths in the sprint and almost takes out 3 riders

"wow what a hero, this guy is unbelievable. a great day for cycling"

 

[red_flanders]

Alpecin are just idiots again. Merlier is faster, just go with him

I just don’t get it. Weird.

 

[Inquitus]

A bit of a deviation? All good by me, but the Comms can be miserable these days?

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Alpecin are just idiots again. Merlier is faster, just go with him

Looked like they were both trying to win there and Merlier just didn't have it

 

[DanielSong39]

OK, the fairy tale is over
Cavendish is a marked man now and the other sprint teams will be trying to figure out ways to beat him
(As they should!)

 

[Ranagazoo]

Do Alpecin not realise you're meant to sprint with your fastest sprinter?

 

[RedheadDane]

Cavendish with two wins in green in 2021. Strange times

Are we sure it's 2021? We didn't time travel, or something?

 

[BigCoward]

"these courses are too unsafe"

cavendish cuts over three bike widths in the sprint and almost takes out 3 riders

"wow what a hero, this guy is unbelievable. a great day for cycling"

That was 2 people coming together, not one person cutting across another.

 

[Aimar16]

cavandish must be disqualified

 

[Mayomaniac]

What happened to Nacer there? He suddenly changed his line.
Edit: Ok, Philipsen moved a bit, so he had to change his line.
Still, the overhead shot shows that Cav was clearly the fastest.

 

[Billie]

This Philipsen stuff is dumb.

Merlier should be at 3 wins lol

 

[Pirazziattacks]

Their leadout was fantastic, it was really served up on a plate there.

100% this. It took Philipsen a second to even get past Merlier.

 

[Tobi]

Cavendish comeback is so amazing couldn’t write a better story
