Tour de France 2021 Stage 6: Tours To - Renamed, As Of Today - Caveauroux

Description
You can be sure the old Mark Cavendish is back when he wins a sprint in fine style, yet still finds time to complain about the efforts of rivals beaten, and the fact the finish line isn’t quite where it’s been in years gone by.

Ned Boulting, David Millar, Pete Kennaugh and Matt Rendell reflect upon another imperious display by the resurgent Manxman, and do their very best NOT to mention Cav’s (until recently) unlikely assault on the 46-year-old Tour de France stage victory record held by the legend that is Eddi … oh, shoot! And if you can be bothered to listen until the end of the pod, you'll even get to hear our grumpy hero air his gripes - with an audible, knowing smile stretched across his face, of course.
