Known as “The Manx Missile” as he's from the Isle of Man, Cavendish was second in Friday’s seventh stage. “It was quite bad," Mosconi added."I stayed with him but he wasn’t able to go on with the race so we had to go back in the peloton.” Merckx amassed his wins in the 1960s and 70s, an era during which his domination was such that he earned the nickname “The Cannibal.” Unlike Merckx, who won a record five Tours, Cavendish has never won and specialized in the sprints.Since his first Tour in 2007, Cavendish has completed 206 stages, winning 16.5% of them, according to statistics provided by race organizers.
