Mark Cavendish and Astana Qazaqstan team manager Alexander Vinokourov will meet on Sunday in Paris when the Tour de France finishes in the French capital to discuss the Manxman’s race programme for 2023, with the idea of Cavendish racing on in 2024 and even returning to the Tour de France also up for discussion.
“I hope we will talk about it when we meet in Paris and we can talk calmly face to face,” Vinokourov told Cyclingnews, insisting that nothing has been decided about Cavendish possibly changing his plan to retire this season and so race on in 2024.
