They finally gifted him that win, so please go away now and spare us of your presence. Astana can happily fold, after being irrelevant for 8 years and barely getting budgets, they achieved this vanity project. I'm surprised the others didn't stop at the end.

Truly remarkable after he almost did not even survive the 1st stage. You can think about Cav watever you want, some likes him, some not and I can absolutely understand why :p but the guy is really something else coming to sprints

Some extremely different reactions to Cavendish's win I see xD

I didn't really see that many different reactions. Like him or not (especially not liking him is very understandable given all the bullshit he's pulled off in sprints and other races), he's definitely one of the all-time great sprinters and it's pretty cool what he did today. Well deserved win.

 

Personally I'm not that happy that he took the all-time stage win record, but that's just because I enjoyed that not being in the hands of a pure sprinter, no matter which sprinter it would be.

Great win for Cavendish :GBR

 

I often cheer for other sprinters, but that was a phenomenal way to earn a 35th victory. What a messy sprint.

why would you not want the presence of THE BEST sprinter ever?

whatever people think of Cav, Phillipsen is 10x worse

Whether or not he is, is of course very much debatable (separate from his often used 'tactics' of over the line elbowing, headbutting and other kinds of things where he very often escaped punishment). One of the best, definitely.
