Manxman Mark Cavendish won a sprint finish to claim stage seven of the Tour of Turkey - his third stage win of the race.
The 29 year-old rider narrowly beat Italians Andrea Piechele and Kristian Sbaragli to the line on the penultimate stage from Selcuk to Izmir.
Mark Renshaw was able to safely deliver Cavendish to the finish and he remains in contention to retain the points jersey for the second year in succession.
