Tour de France Stage 5 results, standings: Mark Cavendish makes history
British sprinter Mark Cavendish broke the record for the most Tour de France stage wins in history with his sprint finish victory during Stage 5 of what is set to be his last ride in the prestigious race.
Cavendish, 39, has now won a record-setting 35 Tour de France stages, cementing his status as the best sprinter in the history of the competition's 111 editions. He previously jointly held the record of 34 stage victories with Belgian cycling legend Eddy Merckx.
After his record-breaking triumph in Saint Vulbas on Wednesday, Cavendish said his and his team’s goal for the 2024 Tour de France was to win at least one stage, even though doing so would be “a big gamble.”
“You have to go all in and we’ve done it,” Cavendish said . “We worked exactly what we wanted to do.”
Cavendish won the first of his Tour stages in 2008 but has struggled since 2021 to add to his impressive tally — until today.
This victory served as the ultimate last-chance comeback for Cavendish following a slew of disappointing circumstances surrounding the Tour. The Brit was set to retire at the end of last season but returned for a final Tour de France after he crashed out of last year’s race during its eighth stage. This year, Cavendish got off to a rocky start as he appeared to struggle with heat-related issues in the early stages of the race.
The top 10 contenders for the yellow jersey remain unchanged after Stage 5 with Slovenian Tadej Pogacar of UAE Team Emirates still occupying the top spot after his dominant Stage 4 win on Tuesday.
Biniam Girmay, who made history as the first Eritrean and Black rider to win a Tour de France stage on Monday, has moved up to the top spot in the contest for the green jersey (points classification) as he successfully rocked up sprinting points along today's flat 110-mile route.
Here's a full look at the 2024 Tour de France standings after five days of riding.

Blanka Vas (SD Worx-Protime) raced to the first Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift victory of her career Thursday, winning a five-woman sprint after a crash inside the final 7km split the peloton and brought down a number of riders.
Kasia Niewiadoma (Canyon-SRAM) was second ahead of Liane Lippert (Movistar Team), Olympic champion Kristen Faulkner (EF-Oatly-Cannondale) and Emma Norsgaard (Movistar Team).
The fallers included race leader Demi Vollering (SD Worx-ProTime) and Puck Pieterse (Fenix-Deceuninck), who had started the day second overall.
That saw the yellow jersey pass to Niewiadoma, who had started the day third, 34 seconds off the top of the general classification. Faulkner is now second overall.
Vollering limped in to the finish a long way back, as did Pieterse, and will both receive medical checks. Questions will be asked as to why Vollering was left isolated after her crash, with the team leader being forced to chase alone for some time.
She trailed in 1:47 back and dropped to ninth overall, 1:19 back.
It was a tough day for the team, but Vas’ win softens the blow.
“It is crazy, I still can’t believe it. I don’t know what to say. I really did not expect this today, because I felt so bad during the race,” the 22-year-old Hungarian champion said.
“Lorena [Wiebes] said to me, ‘believe in yourself,’ and it helped a lot. I can’t believe it.”
She wasn’t fully aware of the drama as it unfolded behind her.
“I was on Mischa’s [Mischa Bredewold] wheel, so in the second position. I did not hear anything. I don’t know what happened.
“My radio was not working so I did not know what was happening at the back. But Demi crashed and I think she lost yellow, so it is a shame. Now I have mixed feelings.”
Fourth in the Olympic road race on August 4, Vas was keeping particular view on the American winner from that race in the finale Thursday.
“I was like, ‘I cannot let Faulkner go,’ because I made the same mistake in the Olympics,” she said. “I was suffering so much but I knew if I would survive this small climb, then maybe I can win.
“The Olympics gives me a lot of confidence because I was racing in the front. So I know if I have a good day I can be in the front.”
Niewiadoma now leads, her advantage 19 seconds over Faulkner and 22 over Pieterse. The Dutchwoman wasn’t as badly delayed as Vollering, racing in as part of a group 28 seconds back.
A tough day made tougher by a multi-rider pileup

Stage 5 of the Tour de France Femmes was another one on roads similar to the Ardennes Classics.
The 152.5km route between Bastogne and Amnéville had five classified ascents and constantly undulating roads, with the final kilometer an uphill one.
Almost immediately after the start Elena Pirrone (Roland) attacked and was joined by Michaela Drummond (Arkéa-B&B Hotels Women). They went over the category three Côte de Hotte in that order, but were recaptured 15km after the start.
Further attacks came and went but nothing was properly established until just after mountains leader Puck Pieterse (Fenix-Deceuninck) beat Justine Ghekiere (AG Insurance-Soudal Team) for the second mountain prime.
Loes Adegeest (FDJ-Suez) went away then with 81km remaining, racing solo over the summit of the Côte de Fermont, and was joined 13km later by Fem van Empel (Visma-Lease a Bike) and Julie Van De Velde (AG Insurance-Soudal Team).
They had 1:36 over lone chaser Alice Towers (Canyon-SRAM) with 50km to go, with the peloton two minutes back. Van de Velde took the intermediate sprint at Mercy-le-Haut and the trio then increased their lead to 2:38.
Cyclocross world champion Van Empel led them across the Côte de Briey and was also first on the Côte de Montois-la-Montagne with 15km remaining.
The pace in the bunch was growing more and more intense and the break was just 20 seconds clear at the intermediate sprint in Malancourt-la-Montagne with 13.2km to go.
Van de Velde pushed forward there to take top points and continued to hold a slight lead over her two breakaway companions for several minutes before they regrouped.
The peloton was 23 seconds back when it raced through the 10km to go point. Van de Velde tried another attack with 8.8km left but Van Empel reeled her in once again.
Drama as general classification is upended

The peloton was moving closer and closer to the leaders but their expected recapture by the large chasing group never occurred.
Just before the junction was made a large crash happened on a high speed bend with 6.2km to go.
Race leader Demi Vollering was one of about a dozen riders involved, landing on her left hip and ripping her shorts. She was delayed, remounting very gingerly and looking set to lose time. Pieterse was also involved but got moving more quickly.
Out front Adegeest clipped away from the other two inside the final 5km but was caught by a select chasing group with 2.9km remaining.
Kasia Niewiadoma (Canyon-SRAM) was there, having avoided the crash, and attacked on a drag with 1.3km to go. She was quickly marked by Emma Norsgaard (Movistar Team), who surged with 1km to go but was in turn covered by Kristin Faulkner (EF-Oatly-Cannondale).
The American continued to lead towards the sprint, with Lippert launching in a bid to repeat her stage win of a year ago.
She was chased hard by Niewiadoma, who passed her on the rise to the line but in turn was overtaken by Vas for the first Tour stage victory of her career.
The final kilometre of this very eventful 5th stage saw Blanka Vas take victory after a sprint in a small group.

Tour de France Stage 5 Preview: Back to the Mountains
Elevation reenters the Tour as a factor as the peloton heads back to the mountains.
![110th Tour de France 2023 - Stage 4 110th tour de france 2023 stage 4](https://hips.hearstapps.com/hmg-prod/images/alex-aranburu-of-spain-and-movistar-team-mattias-skjelmose-news-photo-1688487713.jpg?crop=0.66699xw:1xh;center,top&resize=640:*)
Stage 5 - Pau to Laruns (162.7km) - Wednesday, July 5
After two hard days of hills in the Spanish Basque Country, Stage 5 offers no rest for the weary with the first of two stages in the Pyrenees. We usually don’t see mountains like this at this stage of the Tour, but the Tour’s opening weekend meant a first-week “jaunt” through the mountains that form the border between France and Spain was most feasible.
This is a relatively short stage (162.7km), and it starts rather gently, with about 70km of flat to rolling roads as the race heads southwest out of Pau and toward the intermediate sprint in Lanne-en-Barétous, where we should the Tour’s green jersey contenders do their best to score maximum points behind whomever has managed to escape by this point in the day.
And there’s good reason for him to go on the attack: the first of the day’s three categorized climbs is the hors catégorie Col de Soudet–the first “beyond category” climb of the 2023 Tour de France–and 20 points go to the first rider to its summit. 15.2km in length and with an average gradient of 7.2 percent, it’s the toughest climb the riders have faced so far, but with its summit more than 75km from the finish line in Laruns, the Soudet unlikely to have huge impact on Stage 5 beyond softening everyone’s legs before the finale.
![stage 5 tour de france 2023 profile stage 5 tour de france 2023 profile](https://hips.hearstapps.com/hmg-prod/images/7d3ae-64a44231ba867.jpeg?resize=980:*)
The final 40km are where this stage really gets interesting, first with the Category 3 Col d'Ichère (4.2km at 7 percent) and then in a big way with the Category 1 Col de Marie Blanque (7.7km at 8.6 percent). The second half of the Marie Blanque is super-steep with pitches in the 12-13 percent range. And with its summit just 18.5km from the finish line, it’s likely to determine the stage winner.
This is a tough stage to call. It’s built in a fashion similar to Stages 1 and 2, with a tough climb (with time bonuses at the summit) relatively close to the finish line. We could see a larger peloton hit the base of the Marie Blanque together, the UAE Team Emirates and Jumbo-Visma riding tempo on the lower slopes to set up their leaders for attacks as the climb steepens, with an elite group pulling away to contest the finish in Laruns.
The General Classification is still pretty tight at the top, which means any breakaway given a long enough leash to fight for the stage win will need to contain riders too far down the GC to not pose a serious threat. That doesn’t mean the yellow jersey won’t change hands, but if it does it won’t be someone that UAE Team Emirates or Jumbo-Visma think can win the Tour.
There’s a chance of scattered thunderstorms throughout the afternoon could make things interesting on the descent of the Marie Blanque.
Riders to watch
We’ve seen lots of stages for the Tour’s puncheurs, riders who excel on short, steep climbs–climbs like the Col du Marie Blanque. Despite the fact that he’s in the yellow jersey, don’t be surprised if Great Britain’s Adam Yates (UAE Team Emirates) gets in the mix, alongside his brother Simon (Team Jayco AlUla). Denmark’s Mattias Skjelmose (Lidl-Trek), Spain’s Mikel Landa (Bahrain Victorious), Canada’s Michael Woods (Israel-PremierTech), and Belgium’s Dylan Teuns (Israel-PremierTech) are all good bets to win a stage like this one.
If a breakaway goes the distance, our pick is American Mateo Jorgenson (Movistar), who finished fourth on a stage with a similar finale in last year’s Tour. The 24-year-old has lost enough time so far that he’s not considered a GC threat. This is the perfect opportunity for him to take his first grand tour stage victory.
And of course, given how eager they’ve been to renew their rivalry, keep an eye on Pogačar and Denmark’s Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma). With time bonuses available at the top of the Marie Blanque, we could see them go on the attack as they did at the end of Stages 1 and 2, possibly setting-up someone else to win the stage in the process.
When to Watch
With another explosive finale expected , this is a stage you won’t want to miss. We’ll be tuning in around 10:35 a.m. EDT to see the riders hit the Category 3 Col d'Ichère which serves as a fitting prelude to the Col du Marie Blanque about 10km later. The stage is expected to finish about an hour later.

In the sixth century, three fingers said to be from the right hand of John the Baptist — and therefore of the hand that baptised Jesus Christ — were brought from Alexandria in Egypt to the small town in the Maurienne valley where today’s stage of the Tour de France sets off from. Although the validity of religious relics like this are always more than a little questionable, it continues to make the town (which derives its name of Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne from it) a destination of pilgrimage, and is housed and worshipped in its 11th century cathedral, while also being referenced in the town’s coat of arms.
An analogy could be made between John the Baptist and whoever is in the yellow jersey at this point of the Tour. Just as he was initially heralded by many as the Son of God, only to instead by a precursor to Jesus Christ, the wearer of the yellow jersey this early into the race could merely be a false prophet, before the real champion makes himself known deeper into the second and third week.
Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne is located at the edge of the Alps, and has thus been the host of many key mountain stages of recent Tours — most memorably, albeit now for the wrong reasons, in 2006, when Floyd Landis launched his miraculous comeback long-range solo attack to put himself back into contention for the yellow jersey he’d lost the day before, a performance literally too good to be true as he was disqualified for registering a positive dope test. But today the riders will be headed away from, rather than further into, the mountain range. At least, for now — they’ll return here again in two weeks having circled a substantial lap around the rest of the nation, where the climactic GC stages will take place.
Instead, the riders will head in a northwesterly direction through the region of Savoy. We might have left Italy behind, but this is another region with historical ties to the nation; it’s the origin of the House of Savoy, which would ultimately hold the Italian crown following the nation’s unification in the 19th century. Prior to its move to Turin in 1563 (which was, incidentally, hosted Monday’s stage three finish), the House’s capital was in Chambéry, and the château that was the headquarters will surely be the subject of the obligatory helicopter shorts halfway into the stage.
Those shots will be savoured by commentators looking for something to talk about today, as the terrain here is mostly flat throughout, with only a couple of category four climbs that should do nothing to prevent a bunch sprint in the finish at Saint-Vulbas. Although not previously used at the Tour de France, Saint-Vulbas has featured in other races, and Nacer Bouhanni has fond memories here having won stages at both Critérium du Dauphiné and the Tour de l’Ain. The recently retired Bouhanni is an example of how big a leap it is even for prolific sprinters to win at this level — although he was good enough to win 70 races in his career, but never managed one at the Tour. Whichever sprinter wins today will be of the highest calibre.

The big favourite, Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) was unable to contest the race’s first sprint on stage three after being involved in a crash with two kilometres to go, but his team stated before the following stage that he had recovered well. If all is clear in the run-in to the finish line, Philipsen and his Alpecin team will want to ensure they secure this stage victory. Another rider prevented from being involved in the final sprint to the line due to the crash, however not involved, on stage three was Mark Cavendish (Astana Qazaqstan) and his teammates. On his quest for the record-breaking 35th stage win, the Manxman admitted that his team were not in the best of positions to contest the win, even if the crash hadn't happened. Cavendish still seems positive, however, and stage four looks like another chance for him to make history.
Biniam Girmay (Intermarché-Wanty), nonetheless, has already made history in this race, becoming the first black African rider to win a stage at the Tour de France. He sprinted to a superb victory on stage three, proving that he is back to his winning form and will be a contender for the remaining sprint stages. Completing the podium was Movistar’s Fernando Gaviria and 22-year-old Arnaud De Lie (Lotto Dstny), both who are strong fast finishers, and therefore will be contenders for the expected bunch sprint in Saint-Vulbas.
Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek) has looked in good condition so far, just missing out on the podium on stage three and being very active in the opening of stage four. He certainly is a rider who packs a punch when it comes to the sprint and has proven he can beat the likes of Philipsen in the bunch sprint. Behind him was Dylan Groenewegen (Jayco Alula) who was in good position in the final 100 metres, but a moment with De Lie blocked his ability to sprint over the line. He'll be hoping for a better end to his race and a clear path to victory.
After a rocky start in the brutal opening stages, Fabio Jakobsen (Team-DSM Ferminch PostNL) managed to secure seventh place in the first sprint. He took to Instagram stating that this was his “confidence builder”, so hopefully we will see the DSM rider place higher and higher in the sprints. Bryan Coquard (Cofidis), Sam Bennett (Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale Team), and Phil Bauhaus (Bahrain-Victorious) all looked strong in the first sprint, so will be ones to watch for the stage victory.
Stage five winner prediction
We're backing Jasper Philipsen for the sprint finish. He'll be even more determined to prove his sprint dominance once again after missing out on the first chance.

Tour de France 2024 Route stage 5: Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne - Saint-Vulbas
![tour de france stage 5 Tour de France 2024](https://cdn.cyclingstage.com/images/tour-de-france/2024/stage-5-profile-100.jpg)
Saint-Vulbas saw it’s last pro-peloton finish in the 2016 Critérium du Dauphiné. Two riders who retired in 2023 battled it out for the win. Nacer Bouhanni bested Jens Debusschere with a tiny margin, while Sam Bennett sprinted to third place.
The people in Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne are more used to large groups of superfit men in licra. The town in the foothills of the Alps saw two Tour de France stage starts in the last decade. On both occassions the riders were up for a day of hardships in the high mountains. The race went to La Toussuirre in 2015 (Romain Bardet win) and to Tignes in 2019 (Egan Bernal win).
The riders leave the Alps this time and head in the opposite direction. Saint-Vulbas is situated on the west bank of the Rhône.
The first three riders across the line gain time bonuses of 10, 6, and 4 seconds.

Demi Vollering races on at Tour de France Femmes despite Thursday's crash and time loss
SD Worx-Protime confirm no fractures for defending champion after high speed and loss of the yellow jersey in Amnéville
![tour de france stage 5 Demi Vollering after crashing on stage 5 of the Tour de France Femmes 2024](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/Hkksx3Un2zYSoyJRTtqcDJ-320-80.jpg)
Demi Vollering didn't sustain any broken bones during the high-speed crash which lost her the yellow jersey on stage 5 of the Tour de France Femmes and she is likely to start stage 6 according to SD Worx-Protime.
The defending champion went down 6.3km from the finish in Amnéville and was spotted clutching at the top of her left leg before finally remounting 49 seconds after the incident. But a medical update posted to the team's social media page on Thursday evening revealed that the injuries were largely superficial, albeit with some road rash.
" Demi Vollering was examined at the hotel by the Team SD Worx-Protime team doctor after her fall in the fifth stage of the Tour de France Femmes. She suffered minor bruising and superficial abrasions to her lower back and buttock," read the post.
"The focus of treatment is to recover. It looks positive that Vollering will be able to continue the Tour on Friday."
Vollering posted two tongue-in-cheek posts to her Instagram after the stage, reading "When my ass was still in one piece", and "Don't come close to me tomorrow", also suggesting that she will take the start in Remiremont.
While she struggled to the finish and limited her losses to 1:49 at the line from teammate and stage winner Blanka Vas, Kasia Niewiadoma (Canyon-SRAM) took second on the day and moved into the yellow jersey.
Chaos unfolded for SD Worx-Protime in the run to the line, with Mischa Bredewold questioning the safety of the roundabout exit which Vollering crashed on and sports manager Danny Stam stating that radio problems were the reason for only Bredewold dropping back to help her.

Vollering didn't focus on her new deficit of 1:19 on Niewiadoma as she dropped to ninth place but instead was just pleased that the crash wasn't as severe as it could have been, given the speed.
"Considering how fast I fell, I'm glad I didn't suffer any broken bones. After the fall I had to recover and check everything. Then I was able to get back on my bike and continue the race," said Vollering in the same post.
"Now we have to wait and see how it feels tomorrow morning, but I assume I will be able to continue the Tour tomorrow."
With three stages remaining, Vollering is coming into the terrain which suits her best, the high mountains, but Niewiadoma has a significant lead to defend with, so she will need to find her best on the Grand Bornand and Alpe d'Huez summit finishes if she is to wrest back yellow from the Polish rider.
