Cavendish docked points again

Mark Cavendish was again docked 20 points for finishing outside the time limit at the Tour de France today.

Fortunately for the Manx Missile, his closest rival for the green jersey, Jose Joaquin Rojas, was also in the group which came in around 15 seconds outside today's time limit of 25 minutes 09 seconds.

It means Cavendish is still 15 seconds ahead of Rojas going into tomorrow's time trial.

Today's gruelling final stage in the Alps was won by Pierre Rolland, while Andy Schleck did enough to overhaul Thomas Voeckler and snatch the yellow jersey from the Frenchman.
