Tour de France 2021 Stage 13 Highlights | Can Mark Cavendish Equal Eddy Merckx's Stage Wins Record?

Stage 13 presents another opportunity for the sprinters to flex their muscles before the race enters the Pyrenees. Mark Cavendish sits just one stage win behind Eddy Merck's stage win record of 34 - could today be the day for the Manx Missile?
Another day for the sprinters awaits on stage 13, a 220km-long transitional stage from Nîmes to Carcassonne. While a little tougher than the previous day, this stage shouldn’t cause the GC men too much concern and most should be able to sit at the back of the bunch, recovering from their exploits on Mont Ventoux. The sprinters, on the other hand, will need to have their heads screwed on as they barrel towards Carcassonne. This is a long day in the saddle and many riders will smell a chance for a successful breakaway; if the sprinters and their teams give an escape group too much rope then it could go all the way.
