The asset Cavendish has had in the past, which is why he's been so successful, is that his form seems to degrade more slowly than his rivals. He's rarely won early in the Tour, but then cleans up in the second 2 weeks.
It'll be interesting to see if this happens this year.
That said, that's twice when he's gone too early so fixing that should be the priority.
