Cyclingnews will have live coverage of Milan-San Remo from 8am GMT on Saturday, March 19.

Mark Cavendish has a strong chance of taking his second Milan-San Remo title this weekend; that’s the opinion of his team manager Brian Smith. After winning the Madison world title on the track earlier this month, the Dimension Data general manager believes that Cavendish is riding himself back into road form and just in time for the monument.

“It was difficult in the first couple of days, and obviously, the crash that he had at the Madison didn’t help. He came down really hard,” Smith told Cyclingnews. “I think from now on you’ll start to see Mark Cavendish getting even faster. The numbers he’s producing now are on the strong side. He’s on good form now. He just needs to get that road speed, and I think that we’ll start to see him get more results from now on.

“I believe for Mark that there are wins in Grand Tours for him [this season], and I believe that he is going well enough to look at Milan-San Remo as well. What Mark is lacking at the moment is that explosiveness in the finish, but he’s got the experience that counts.”
