good win for cavendish. dont think he's the fastest tho.
He is the fastest, if it's a pure sprint stage he wins. Unfortunately for him, this tour is different with the hillier road stages and tt early on. The older guys (and I still want McEwan in green, don't get me wrong) don't have his top end speed. McEwan manages to get where he does because he's a bunch sprint magician and he floats around everyone, but he still doesn't have Cav's speed. This stage was 1k flat, straight, a pure top end drag race and as expected Cav won. Good on him, I think he's cool.
