According to the BBC, Mark Cavendish is out of the Tour de France after crashing during stage eight on Saturday.
The Manxman, who is 38, has already said this Tour would be his last as he plans to retire at the end of the season.
Widely regarded as cycling's greatest sprinter of all time, Cavendish came into this year's Tour level on 34 stage wins with Belgian legend Eddy Merckx.
Jasper Philipsen denied the 'Manx Missile' a record-breaking 35th stage win during stage seven on Friday.
