Mark Cavendish and Steve Cummings will spearhead Team Dimension Data’s bid for Tour de France stage wins after both Brits were confirmed in the African team’s nine-man line-up.
Cummings earned the team their first ever Tour de France stage win in 2015, winning on Mandela Day, while Cavendish joined the team in the winter and is targeting the yellow jersey on stage one.
Cavendish’s lead-out man Mark Renshaw, who followed him from Etixx-QuickStep in the winter, is also selected, while Norwegian champion Edvald Boasson Hagen and South African Reinardt Janse van Rensburg also bolster the sprinting arsenal.
