When I heard it was going to be a bunch sprint at the end of Stage Five from Cagnes-sur-Mer to Marseille, I knew there would only be one winner. The anger would have been boiling inside Cavendish since yesterday; losing that TTT by less than a second would have killed him.
The chance for him to be on the podium with his boys – gone.
No one was going to get the better of him after that disappointment.
ASO saw it this way;
‘The profile was flat, a sprint was expected, and a favourite for the fifth stage was nominated by just about everyone.
“If you’ve watched sprints at the Tour de France since 2008, you know who the fastest man in the world is.
“Mr Cavendish has won multiple stages since his first triumph at the Tour and in five years he’s now collected a total of 24… and we can expect this to grow even more judging by the manner in which his Omega Pharma-Quickstep team rode into Marseille.”
I didn’t used to be a fan; but now I can’t help it.
Conventional wisdom is that you measure intelligence with iQ – but people who study these things will tell you that it’s only part of the story.
You can be a genius with your hands or a musical instrument but not be able to count to ten.
For me, Cav is a sprint genius – Cipollini was more flamboyant but much as it pains me to say it, I think Cav is better.
Off his train, Cipo at his peak was virtually unbeatable – but Cav can win from just about every situation.
Here’s our top 12 reasons why we think he’s shaping up to be the best sprinter, ever;
- He has to win, it eats him up when he doesn’t; he has that Merckx-like hunger, that desperation to win.
- He has grinta, when Ferrari decked him in the Giro last year he got up, gave himself a shake and was back at the top of the podium within days. Check that one out, he came down hard but there was no moaning, the pain and disappointment were channelled into gunning for the next win.
- As Louis Armstrong might say; ‘he has all the time in the world.’ The others are bumping, swerving, panicking, Cav’s in his own wee world where everything happens slower. I’ve seen him freewheel, go backwards out of the box then re-launch to win – extraordinary.
- His jump is monstrous; the only way Petacchi could beat him was to anticipate Cav’s jump by a second then hope Cav couldn’t come back at him – if Cav goes first you’ve little chance.
- He can ‘go long’ if he has to; at 300 metres – few can do that.
- He can win without a train – he had to at Sky. But with the QuickStep train getting more finely tuned by the day, that’s no longer an issue.
- He knows himself so well, in the ZLM Tour there were no stage wins; he was using it for training – not going too deep.
- He really does appreciate team work – it’s not propaganda, he values loyalty and rewards it.
- He’s consistent; when you sign Cavendish you know you’re signing a man who’ll deliver.
- He’s a powerful motivator. When we spoke to his personal soigneur, Aldis at the Giro, he told us that when the QuickStep team arrived at the race it was just a group of guys – within days Cav had them so that they’d ride themselves into the ground for him.
- Glasgow; he was in the break all day, doing spells up Saint Vincent Street – he was brilliant.
- Talkin’ Italian; we like that he makes the effort; and so do the Italians – it’s professional.
Tomorrow? Flat but with the wind ready to ambush the unwary – maybe it’ll catch out QuickStep?
Maybe a pig will fly past?
