Britain’s Mark Cavendish won stage two of the Tour de France after a trademark lead out by his Columbia-HTC team in Provence. The 24-year-old sprinter made his dash to the line early and held off a late challenge from American Tyler Farrar of Garmin-Slipstream to take the green jersey. France’s Romain Feillu (Agritubel) was third after the peloton was split following a crash on the closing bend of the 187 kilometre stage from Monaco to Brignoles. Cavendish’s win is the Manxman’s fifth Tour victory to date following last year’s superb haul of four victories.
