Sir Mark Simon Cavendish born 21 May 1985, is a retired Manx professional road racing cyclist, who did ride for UCI WorldTeam Astana Qazaqstan Team. As a track cyclist he specialises in the madison, points race, and scratch race disciplines; as a road racer he is a sprinter. He is widely considered one of the greatest road sprinters of all time, and in 2021 was called "the greatest sprinter in the history of the Tour de France and of cycling"by Christian Prudhomme, director of the Tour de France.. He holds the record for most stage wins at the Tour de France (35), achieved across 15 Tours and 17 years (2008-2024).

Cavendish won seven Grand Tour stages in 2013, one in 2015 and four in 2016. This included a win on stage one of the "016 Tour de France claiming his first Tour de France yellow jersey. He crashed with Peter Sagan on stage four of the 2017 Tour de France, forcing him out of the race. Cavendish continued producing good results until August 2018, when he was diagnosed with Epstin-Barr Virus Before his diagnosis, Cavendish was able to compete in the 2018 Tour de France but was disqualified after not making the cut-off time on stage eleven. He returned to the Tour de France at the 2021 edition, winning four stages and his second points classification.
