We need to be really careful with the rules here. Many people get the rule 2.3.036 ("Riders shall be strictly forbidden to deviate from the lane they selected when launching into the sprint and, in so doing, endangering others. ") wrong. It is not forbidden to change your lane. It is only forbidden to do so when endangering other riders. Mark does not endanger anyone by changing his lane so there is no reason to disqualify him. It is not his responsibility what other do on his backwheel as a response to his change of lanes. @

[@S9999Frank]

How about causing chaos behind him is not endangering anybody ? He knows what he is doing. But in reality the rule is only applied if you bump somebody into the barriers. And not always then even. Because nobody really sticks to their line. But there is not going 100% straight, then there is moving from one side of the road to the other in 1 second or 2 like Cav does.

Reading through the comments yesterday, absolutely dismissing Cav. Asking what kind of ego he has to think he can break the record, considering how bad he looked. That ego and belief in himself is what got him to 35 wins and that same belief made Vino believe he could do it. Astana are a part of the history in cycling now and well done to them

[@williamverhoef4349]

So, when you said: "He COULD be DISQUALIFIED for This", that was just click bait, right?

[@dotherightthingbro]

Astana got the reward for signing a retired Cav. It’s the Astana livery on the photo of the record breaking stage. So it’s job done for the Manx man and I guess he will retire now. Chris did say he is the best sprinter in history and that seals it. This Tour is more than fulfilling expectations as is our hosts roundups.

[@GeoffGummer]

If any one deserved to break the record its Cav. He might be a bit of a dick sometimes, but he's been amazing and today shows what experience does for you. In an interview he was saying he knew he didnt have the team to get over the line, but they could get him close and he was going to have to ride smart. He did.

[@ardnax]

Not really a great comment from him and downplaying his team, seeing as he has one of the best lead out men around in Mørkøv, but yes wasn't the perfect sprint as a full team this time.

[@xander0901]

When I saw the headlines waking up this morning, I put on the entire stage replay while I was working because I wanted to see how the day would develop and it was well worth it to witness history for both Mark Cavendish and Biniam Girmay. I watched the documentary they did for Cavendish, and I thought it did a really great job showcasing the highs and lows of his career. Understanding his career trajectory made that win feel incredibly satisfying as a cycling fan. In terms of how the stage ended, I see it as hard sprinting and no reason to DQ anyone, especially given how the UCI have chosen to enforce/not enforce this rule in its history. This conversation is always going to come up because the rule exists, but I personally don’t think the rule in its current language really lives up to the spirit of how the sprints should be. Regardless, I see zero reason to doubt that Cavendish was 100% the fastest man on two wheels for the day. Congrats

Crazy his chain was completely OFF as he came across the line. 😮

[@wesb123]

I was wondering why he was just rolling stiff leg.

[@wildly_heather]

The chain dropped because he stopped pulling suddenly. It’s really normal, because usually the momentum keeps the cassette going forward, and when you stop, the chain just falls off. It’s not broken, and it didn’t come off until he stopped pedaling.

Watching the race in real time, and seeing Cav surf the wheels, you could just see, OMG, he's going to do this. On one point though, I disagree with you. The wording of the UCI rule is: "Riders shall be strictly forbidden to deviate from the lane they selected when launching into the sprint *and, in so doing, endangering others*." [my emphasis] I don't think Cav was close to being DQ'd by the rule here; not even close to being close. There was nobody near him as he moved left and nobody he cut off. No reasonable person could say that he "endangered others".

I am happy to witness Cav's record winning sprint competing in his 15th TDF at 39 years old (reminding me of somebody that won a major tour at 42). I often wonder how many victories Merckx would have won if he competed in more than only 7 TDF's. Has anyone ever been able to win more than 9 stages in one TDF as Eddy did in 1970? I never cease to be amazed at videos showing Merckx climbing in a huge gear with his upper body rocking while producing an amazing 276 pro victories.

[@choctawone8266]

It's silly to try to compare the two. Merckx could certainly have won more than 35 stages, had it been a goal. But, remember, he was in the race for the yellow jersey overall. There were breakaways he let go, and other tactics that were reasonable, but interfered with a stage win. Kudos for Cav, though, 35 sprint wins is epic in its own right.
