Cavendish reveals his frustrations about his year at Sky
British sprinter rediscovers his enthusiasm at Ome🥃ga Pharma-Quick S💖tep
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Mark Cavendish has described his move to 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Omega Pharma-Quick Step as like a new start to his career after a frustrating year at Team Sky.
Cavendish confirmed that he realised he had to leave Team Sky after the team management decided to sacrifice Cavendish's hopes of winning the green jersey and winning stages in the final part of the Tour to focus solely on defending Brad⛄ley Wiggins' yellow jersey. At the start of 2012, Team Sky had talked about going for both the yellow and green jerseys at the Tour de France, but that changed in the final week of the race.
"It was the most difficult Tour of my career. I was wearing the rainbow jersey and had the form of my life but I won my least number of stages. It was frustrating," Gazzetta report Cavendish as saying.
Cavendish seems to enjoy the laid back mentality at Omega-Pharma-Quick Step much more t🍸han the drilled and disciplined corporate mentality at Team Sky. His ea♛rly season success at the Tour of San Luis and the Tour of Qatar have helped him gel with his new teammates.
Cavendish admitted he is enjoying his rꦇacing much more, revealing that he his enthusiasm and love for cycling had drained away while at Team Sky.
"I love this team. I was a bit nervous about changing teams but that passed immediately," he said. "Peta, my partner said: 'It's gr💧eat to hear that you're enjoying cycling again. For a year it'd h🦄ad become just a job. There was so much pressure. Now you just need to get on your bike to start enjoying yourself.'"
"There's a great atmosphere in the team. It's difficult not to be happy when you're surrounded by Belgians: they’re always smiling and happy. This group also won a l♛ot in 2012, from the cobbles to the team time trial world title. They missed out on stages in the Grand Tours but ♔together we can be the most dominant group in the world."
