Tour De France: Brilliant Cavendish Powers to Fourth Stage Win

Britain's Mark Cavendish maintained his incredible form by surging to victory on stage 13. The win represented a fourth stage win for Team Columbia rider Cavendish, and came just a day after he had become the first British rider ever to win three stages in a single Tour.

Cavendish once again demonstrated his stunning pace over the final 150m of the stage, easing past Silence-Lotto's Robbie McEwan, who finished second by a bike-and-a-half, and Agritubel's Roman Feillu, who finished third.

Silence-Lotto's Australian rider Cadel Evans retained the leader's yellow jersey.
