Cavendish is in 38th place after five stages
|
Manx cyclist Mark Cavendish retained the sprinters' green jersey at the Tour de France on Thursday. Norway's Thor Hushovd won the sprint to move within a solitary point of Cavendish, who finished 16th. Cavendish told BBC Sport: "I wasn't going to to go all out as I didn't think I was going to match Thor and Oscar here." "I'm not going to sacrifice my chances of reaching Paris to hold onto the green jersey." He added: "Every other sprint day is going to suit me so hopefully we can get it right then because I want to reach Paris with more stage wins."
