Great analysis!! I was a little confused for the last move but your explanation makes it clear.

[@jaydawg2023]

Go Cav!!!!!!

[@betsomo4807]

Superb, thank you so much

[@tadhgcronin175]

Fantastic achievement.

[@bobbyhood33287]

Thank you for the analysis.

[@AdamGordon1]

Great analysis. Thanks.

[@danielsnook5029]

He's 39 so yeah he did sprint like "old Mark Cavendish." 😂😂

[@madplanet3351]

When you see today's sprint 4th July you can see how his sprint was gifted

[@christopherwinstone434]

Very well said! 👍🏼

[@cars2drive298]

Incredible ! ✌️🏆

[@katdarlingmusic]

Yaaaaaassss 🔥

[@MarkRadcliffe]

Bro, you completely missed the most impressive part of Cav's sprint. The 20 seconds before you started tracking his position, he had to hop, duck, nudge, snake and push his way up around 5-6 other riders. Go back and watch it again. That's where he really won the sprint. From the point where you started, it was almost a foregone conclusion. The real work was before.

[@teatime19]

What about the cofidis rider who bunny hopped the crashed rider behind cav. skillz👌

[@beatrix6504]

Stunning sprint by Cav who is an artist. Naturally Jasper Disaster doesn't look to his left as he sprints to the left following Cav's wheel. I dread having to watch Disaster going forward once Cav retires.

[@cmarnold78]

Heck! haven't seen Adam for a few weeks as we don't get Max for the TdF here in the US. Looking pretty fit and tanned!

[@amc5966]

Johan Brunyneel. "Cav won his first stage in 2008 beating Eric Zabel. Eric Zabel's son Rick Zabel just retired.".

[@jakepalo1108]

Cavendish started started a chain reaction which ended up in a crash.

[@Lepetitortu]

Wow how are you a commentator, this sprint was won hundred+ meters before that!!

[@HaiLeQuang]

39 years of age and won a Sprint race at Tour De france. Come on

[@jono1457-qd9ft]

@@HaiLeQuang He still has a very high level of fitness. Maybe you don't understand what that means?

[@lavonaltenhofen2725]

With the help of his "teammates " of course!

[@oldtwinsna8347]

Jasper was simply out of position and the draft from low profile Mark is not as great as a normal rider.

[@ArtfulCodgers]

Why didn’t he make a straight shot for the line at 75m or 50m, he wasn’t even fully sprinting, post Tour crits started early this year!

[@cx34r]

How many miles was he towed by the team car today?

[@hilltopper600]

2024 TDF will be remembered as the tour that faked a Cavendish win. It was a joke, the real sprinter were nowhere to be found

[@ArtfulCodgers]

He starts his sprint on the left, deviates across the whole width road to the right barrier, which is against the rules, of course he would impede the others, if it was a real sprint, felt like I was watching a post Tour crit. he should’ve been relegated by the commissaries.

[@milikoshki]

hard disagree- He didn't impede anyone- even Philipsen was able to follow his line across without causing problems for other riders. There was no braking or bunching behind them. No one was at risk beyond the usual risk of a sprint.

[@ArtfulCodgers]

Yes if you ignore the fact that the riders on the right side barrier have Cav swerve into their path to the line, and the ripple effect of that causes Pederson to hit the barrier and crash, absolutely no one was impeded by Cav’s deviation from his line… 🙄 As usual Cav causing crashes 🤷‍♂️

[@jono1457-qd9ft]

@@ArtfulCodgers Cav didn't cause the crash. Watch again.

[@gerdkerman9849]

​@@jono1457-qd9ftHis favorite didn't win that's all

[@nikkiljames]

Here are some more sour 🍇🍇🍇 for you.

[@hilltopper600]

Where were all the sprinter when Cavendish won! What a setup for a broken down old man that could not even stay with the pelethon for the first 4 stages. Fake!

[@effie924]

now can we move on from this ? ugh

[@dylanbedford6446]

Shut up typical casual fan

[@Doggy-B]

Show some respect.

[@jono1457-qd9ft]

No.

[@falfield]

It's evident from your sticking around to make the remark that you cannot (move on). And that IS your problem, pal.

[@mej6519]

when its your turn to stand on the shoulders of giants, then we'll move on.
