Cavendish sprints to first Tour stage

Britain's Mark Cavendish won the sprint for victory on the fifth stage of this season's Tour de France - the sixteenth stage win of his career. 

It was a tricky ride which saw many crashes, and riders including Bradley Wiggins and Alberto Contador hit the deck but were unharmed. 

On an uphill finish a number of riders attacked but Cavendish held his nerve to storm through ahead of his rivals. 

Thor Hushovd retained the yellow jersey while Geraint Thomas earned another impressive position.
