• British rider delivers victory in Singapore Criterium
• ‘I couldn’t have wished for a better send-off than here’

Mark Cavendish claimed victory in his final race as a professional cyclist. The 39-year-old produced a trademark sprint finish to cross the line first in the Tour de France Prudential Singapore Criterium.

Cavendish’s fellow competitors gave him a guard of honour before the race and the Manxman was understandably emotional at the end.
