STAGE REPORT
Mark Cavendish returned to his favoured position at the top of the podium on stage 11 of the Tour de France, reversing yesterday's result against Andre Greipel.
Unleashing a perfectly timed sprint, Cavendish took his third victory of the 2011 Tour and his eighteenth of all time, along the way collecting the green jersey at a decisive moment.
In the closing stages the gap to the mandatory breakaway came down as quickly as the rain, a complete deluge covering the finishing kilometres and with visability low, leadout trains had a tough workout to deliver their rider in the final moments.
Cavendish held his wheel perfectly, while Geraint Thomas battled to drop off Boason Hagen for his second win, but it wasn't enough. Cavendish proved his green jersey credentials and with the following three stages all in the mountains tomorrow heralds a distinct change and a first showing of the real contenders.
STAGE 11 ON TWITTER
The day of Twitter action started with an apology - ESPN's sports host Michael Smith forced into a step-down following backlash from the cycling community after he dubbed 'hilarious' the car crash that claimed Juan Antonio Flecha and Johnny Hoogerland.
Meanwhile, Mark Cavendish gave an insight into the realities of riding for over 46 hours in 12 days.
"Just took the surgical dressing of my saddle sore. #aaaarrrrrgggggghhhhhh Maybe shaving just my legs isn't enough."
Following a stage win and a green jersey acquisition, mood in camp Cav seemed to be on the up...
"WOW! @TheDPate and Lars Bak held 6 strong guys at 3mins! How could I not win after that? @mark_renshaw super cool in last km. Super happy."
"Also, finally got my grubby little Manx mitts on the Green Jersey. We will try & keep it until Paris. 2 more sprints.. Montpellier & Paris!"
