Mark Cavendish Is Back! | 3 Wins From 3 Sprints: How Did He Do It?

[@gcnracing]

Is this as good as it will get for Mark Cavendish, or does he have some bigger wins left in him? Let us know in the comments below!

[@tudidingsapparel7197]

More bigger wins for me. Too bad, I think, DQS won't let him go on a world tour. If next season some other teams will offer him a contract, maybe he can really prove that these wins were not just for D-tier sprinters.

[@rebellis13]

Pure sprinters are a dying breed if you ask me and thats not a bad thing.

[@josephveal986]

Bigger wins are in him. I think V Espana wins maybe later in the year!

[@thibault454]

@@tudidingsapparel7197 He will end his carreer at DQS

[@allthingsTechrelated]

Nice TV. Cav. Is back.

[@tomgier8548]

For someone like me who has never raced himself, such explanatory analyses discover tactics that aren't obvious to me when watching the race itself. I would love to see more of this type of content.

[@EddieDBama]

Same here. My only racing is on Zwift :-)

[@71CMM]

Head to Lanterne Rouge, his analysis is second to none.

[@jotapi4010]

Indeed!!!

[@kchall5]

Chris Horner is my go-to.

[@peterslegers6121]

What really helps to learn tactics, is to ride along in a road race or criterium, and hear and see what different options do with your speed, power and position in the group. kzbin.info is a cyclist sharing tips and tricks to make you a faster bike racer and better analist.

[@alanhumphrey5778]

Brilliant to see it broken down, rather than "That was fast" or "Someone didn't have the legs today" as we usually get. Chapeau!

[@stephen3650]

Loved that sprint analysis. Nice work Dan 👌👏

[@pauljansen1137]

Great for his confidence...to be honest I thought it was all over for him last year...respect for the way Quickstep gave him another chance!!!

[@gcnracing]

He seems very happy at Quickstep, which I think has a big part to play in his results!

[@pauljansen1137]

@@gcnracing agreed! they know how to treat sprinters...that's for sure!!!

He payed for his own contract, Quickstep didn't have to pay him one cent. Perhaps he's gonna get a bonus for his wins though.

[@samgooding-matthews3175]

I’m just glad his career didn’t end in a downer like it looked like at the end of the year the question is how many more wins does he need before he can ask for a shot at the Tour de France ??

[@jmh70]

@ he didn't pay, he got Specialized to pay.

[@gregoryspeakman9411]

Love the new touchscreen, makes the content seem way more sleak and similar to Sky and BT. Hope you guys use and abuse it for more of the upcoming races this year!

[@gcnracing]

They'll be plenty more of the giant touch screen, don't you worry!

[@mettacitta2000]

I'm going to speak for everyone...please do more race analysis just like this. There's years of race experience in your studio waiting to be unlocked 🙏

[@martinandersson5833]

That was a very interesting analysis! Thanks Dan. Congrats Mark Cavendish. What a performance👏👍

[@Lolcatterie]

Loved this. Cav being strong enough to use his brain like this was a genuine delight.

[@nehaojha9094]

More of these kind of analysis please GCN. We who ride mostly Gran Fondos can't make these moves out in real time. Also wishing Cav more wins in the upcoming races. Top bloke!

[@reprobate337]

Great to see Mark win! Superb analysis from Dan who is clearly loving his big touch screen which really helped to show exactly what was happening.

[@march2012bbc]

Good use of the telly. More analysis like this please Dan

[@cervelo9465]

Tears of Joy and Happiness ! All so happy and proud of you. I bet he felt like a neo pro again after such a long drought without win. Very grateful to have found this video and will try to show rest of my family tomorrow :)

[@Seeker7100]

I'll have to admit it publicly - I was just about in tears when Mark Cavendish got the first win and he just kept producing, what ace act he is!!!

[@eliteharrington7377]

It's great to see Cavendish back to his winning way.

[@marty197666]

Cav really deserves shit loads of respect. Probably the greatest road sprinter of all time and to be coming back like this after all his health issues is amazing. Also great break down Dan, would be great to see more!

[@riktye8800]

Great to see GCN doing more of a technical professional breakdown and review - thanks keep it up 👍🏻 (PS maybe go for a thicker marker and different colour for your monitor. ) Everyone is a critic 👍🏻👍🏻

[@paulblack6288]

Very new to the cycling bug and it is great to have the race tactics explained so well. It’s inspiring and fun. Great work on the new telly, Dan. Thanks!

[@Xyzabc998]

Great to see him back to winning ways and good analysis too for those os use new to watching cycling.

[@DragonRides75]

Great report good to see Cav back in winning ways.

[@zajimavyhonza7156]

great video. Cav’s still got that something tha’s above the rest and is great to watch the maestro at work. Thanks for that.

[@IanDeLaCruz]

I would LOVE to see more of these types of content on GCN Racing! For people who watch other sports, being able to learn about tactics in bike racing makes it that much more interesting to watch.

[@joev1611]

Now that is a racing wrap up!!! Love the analysis and touch screen. More!

[@rogerburns5095]

Really appreciate the breakdown! It helps this neophyte to professional racing understand it and appreciate it more. Look forward to others in the future! Thanks again!

[@georgeforrest6811]

Brilliant analysis, more please. Great to see Cav back best of British by far.

[@michaelr148]

So happy for Cav to taste some podium bubbles again. Great coverage and analysis. Not that he spent a lot of time in bunch sprints, but Dan brings a great level of cycling wisdom to the discussion. Thanks Lloydy!

[@silam4465]

Wonderful insights...! And couldn't be happier for Cav. For a few reasons I'm (very sadly) unable to get GCN+ at this point in time so these sorts of videos are gold to me... More please

[@simongoh9461]

Great tactics in stage 4 from Cav's DQS last lead out rider pulling off in 2nd place to leave Phillipson in the wind when he realizes Cav's not on his wheel.

[@chrisjenkins3917]

GREAT to see Cav winning again! The man is a legend. Thanks to GCN for the more detailed breakdown of the sprints - good education for anyone who races or who wants to better understand the action.

[@tammystringer4044]

Love the race analysis and the touch screen. Hope you continue to do these kinds of videos.

[@thomasshea4466]

Yes! This presentation is absolutely fantastic. Thank you. Please keep it coming.

[@bkmontgomery]

Loved this in-depth analysis. More of this please.

[@dorianfulton7168]

Really clean, well presented analysis! A very nice, useful and efficient use of everyone's time. Thank you.

[@Family-X-Change]

Dan, great first run (or ride) at the new touch screen. Very interesting and a must for future shows. 👍

[@donball370]

Well done Dan. Fantastic insight to be able to understand what happens at the pointy-end of a pro-sprint.

[@bobfitzsimmons3490]

Enjoying the big screen and those explanations with your touches....

[@peterhall3618]

Top job Dan, excellent analysis. Its great to see Cav back winning, I had a tear in my eye after his first stage win, absolutely fantastic.

[@jswanson859]

Love the new screen! It really helps breaking down these sprints, keep up the great analysis of all the great racing that is happening now.

[@kacy750]

thx for the insight dan on how racers think/behave! analysis appreciated

[@jmh70]

Good work Dan, more of this please.

[@PeterLeder]

More of this, please. Well done, Dan!

[@Bikejon]

Thank you Dan. That was great analysis. I like the tech too. Happy for Cav 👍

[@bike-man537]

Very Cool! Great insight of the key factors that gave Mark the advantage. Great to see Cav back winning again. He's always been one of my favorite riders and has had freakishly bad luck the past few years. Would love to see him back on the podium in Le Tour.

[@iann23]

He's going to train so much harder with more confidence now. Fingers crossed this is the start of a great year for him.

[@chrishayes121]

GCN+ It Takes Two. Love it. Great analysis, clear explanation, cheers Dan.

Great TV! Mark has needed a confidence boost for so long. I really hope this gets him back in the hunt for bigger sprints in bigger races. Love the analysis!!

[@alantaylorfarnes]

This is brilliant Dan. Love seeing stuff like this. Learnt loads.

[@unnkris]

Amazing analysis.. really helps to understand the race better for us. Waiting for more such videos...

Love your work Dan, very insightful and interesting. I love Mark Cavendish, big fan of him and am glad to see him back on top

[@rickcoyne7845]

Fantastic, I love your new TV, you gave great details we can not see in real time. Thank you. :)

[@1958vintage]

That was a great analysis, Dan. Looking forward to more during the rest of the season.

[@JWTownhill]

Brilliant video thanks guys. I’d love to see more like this.

[@paulentwistle1651]

Cab is such a bundle of nerves - just so pleased that he is winning after having had 3 really difficult years - means that he has the chance to retire winning and I think that that will be really important to him..... great analysis as usual Dan 👍👍👍

[@paulentwistle1651]

What a clown / should have said CAV not Cab - sorry about that😕😕😕

[@UncleTabaByte]

Manx Missile! Happy to see Cav win again. The best win or a very memorable win was when Wiggins doing the lead out, wearing the yellow jersey at TDF2012 on the last stage. Swoosh!

[@danieljansen7399]

Nice analysis...really appreciated the breakdown. Great to see Cav back on the winner's podium

[@tonymc90]

Great to see Cav back to winning ways. Love the analysis from GCN.

[@GuyLubovitch]

outstanding: I think we miss this kind of video that shows smart moves from smart riders. maybe a few on the climbs as well

[@jasoncaine5888]

Excellent analysis look forward to more of these videos 👌

[@sebastianmachadocph]

What an amazing fantasy cycling team Lloydy is making! Jasper Jakobsen, George Bennett who knows maybe even Mikel Indurain?? Also love that he is now officially the Wolf Blitzer of cycling! 👏😜

[@Mattsretiring]

Love watching Cav. Thanks for the coverage

[@FreshAyers]

Excellent detailing of the sprints from Dan. So good to see Cav back winning again. 👍🙂🚴

[@robjones3420]

Fantastic video. Really good explanation and now confirms to my wife that I’m not talking s&@“ about race tactics etc. Keep this format going and think about using the success golf has had with this format. Great!!!

I have that same HCT highroad kit that you show Cav wearing in the opening ❤️ I only wear it on special occasions 🥰. Highroad's owner lives in my awesome biking region of CA🤗
