He Isn't Here TDF21-123
With six guys already up the road by the time the peloton got to the intermediate sprint in Saint Sever, there wasn't many points left in the competition to wear the Maillot Vert. The long drag up to the sprint suited Cavendish's main competitors, Micheal Matthews (BikeExchange) and Sonny Colbrelli (Bahrian-Victorious). Matthews looked back over his shoulder to see where everyone was as he went to the line. I think Colbrelli was looking around trying to figure out why they were seeing the leadout for Cav from his team. Matthews' teammate, Luka Mezgec, was on the wheel of the Italian champion ready to jump off after anyone who challenge his guys lead across the sprint point.
