Sixteen years to the day after his Tour de France debut in London, Britain’s Mark Cavendish (Astana Qazaqstan) came so close to an historic 35th stage win on the world’s biggest bike race.

A tense and highly contested sprint finish in Bayonne was won by Belgium’s Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) ahead of Germany’s Phil Bauhaus (Bahrain-Victorious) and Australia’s Caleb Ewan (Lotto Dstny).
