After the tour warning strike, old master Cavendish is racing into happiness

After the warning strike of a field of riders who had been damaged early on, a veteran turned back time on the 4th stage of the 108th Tour de France: five years after his last stage victory, sprint star Mark Cavendish once again presented the fastest legs. The now 36-year-old Brit showed his class on the fourth stage in Fougeres, triumphing with a good bike length lead over Nacer Bouhanni (FRA) and Jasper Philipsen (BEL).
