00:00Cavendish is on his absolute last legs, absolutely exhausted.
00:24He makes it with 46 seconds to spare.
00:28It was among the top 10, I think, of my struggles.
00:38It's the most difficult race in the world.
00:40It makes you dream, but it also puts pressure on you to know that you have to be at the same level.
00:43The real start of this first leg of the 111th edition of the Tour de France.
01:02It's the Tour de France, we're not warming up.
01:07It's going very, very fast.
01:09It's getting tougher and tougher.
01:13Once you are in a breakaway and you get that adrenaline,
01:17these mental limits sometimes go away and you can again reach your full potential.
01:43It's a joy of chance.
01:45The dust.
01:47But in what state are you in?
01:52With his power, his strength.
01:54It's hard, it's hard, it's hard.
02:03I think I left it all out there and I wish I could have pushed a little bit harder towards the end,
02:09but it is what it is and it was not enough.
02:14I didn't know too much.
02:16It was just a bike race with a finish line to cross first,
02:19but you knew the end, it was the tunnel.
02:27I'm sorry.
02:33Cycling is not a game.
02:35Cycling is not a game.
02:37It's more about who can suffer the most.
02:43It's cool to be one of those guys that can show it's possible to suffer a bit.
02:49What courage, once again.
02:51The rider's reflex to get back on the bike as quickly as possible.
03:05Impressive, the Ecuadorian.
03:08He really wants to be in front.
03:12A hat for Carapaz.
03:14He was looking for it.
03:15It escaped.
03:21He gave everything to bring him back.
03:26Each team comes with their best version, with their best men
03:30and in the end the competitiveness here is very, very high.
03:32I always think the Tour is the best race
03:36because it's the best level on the planet.
03:47A hat for Carapaz.
03:50Richard Carapaz, he wanted this stage
03:53and he gave himself the means to go and get it.
03:55He attacks every day as soon as the road rises.
03:57Richard Carapaz is finally rewarded.
04:02It's a very, very hard day.
04:04There are always the attacks, the attacks.
04:07I think we did it very intelligently
04:10and it's a beautiful victory.
04:14The winner of this Tour de France
04:17is the Ecuadorian Richard Carapaz.
