The illustration is showing avg speed over different distances within the final km, which is demonstrating who had to sprint the furthest and fastest to the line.
Overall, Cav was the fastest to the line, that’s how he won. But others had to make up ground to compete in the final meters.
In the end, he won by at least half a length, sat up with his hands on his helmet. So I think it’s fair to say he had something left in the tank. His win on the last day of tour of Belgium showed he can still do it the messy way – and that was against Caleb.
