The Tour de France reaches Carcassonne in the south west – not a town that has been kind to the sprinters in the past. But, after yesterday’s breakaway stage Deceuninck-Quick Step worked to keep the breakaway on a tight leash to ensure a sprint finish.
Join Richard Moore, Lionel Birnie and François Thomazeau at the Grand Café Occitan in Félines-Minervois, owned by Robert Eden – more of him next week – where they discuss Mark Cavendish’s record-equalling 34th Tour de France stage win.
We hear from Patrick Lefevere, Davide Ballerini and Michael Mørkøv and attempt to put Cavendish’s achievement into context.
