Other information

[edit]

During stage 5 of the 2024 Tour de France, as Mark Cavendish was just about to secure his record-breaking 35th stage win, Mads Pedersen crashed into a barrier and fell full length onto the road. Zingle, who had just completed his sprint lead-out duties but was still riding at high speed immediately behind, bunny hopped over him and rode over the finishing line. Pedersen escaped serious injury[4][5]
