MotoGP riders impress Tour de France legend Mark Cavendish

"MotoGP rid🥀ers, they're more competitive than cyclists," Cavendish jok༺ed to TNT Sports.

"I was well impressed, it was really nice.💮 I kn🐷ow a lot of the riders ride push bikes, anyway.

“I just ꦡthought they did it to chill, but they were goi♕ng fast."

Cavendish insisted he was impressed: "I was, I really was, I'm not j🐼ust bigging it up.

“Le Mans h🎃as got that hill, it's not ওan easy circuit, and it's right at the beginning.

𓆏"If you go too soon, you're paying forꦆ it later, but they knew what they were doing.

"I'm glad I'm🐽 retired, because I thin🐎k some of them could have been changing sport. I love it. For a bike racer, it's a bit boring on a circuit."

Cavendish said about the 2025 MotoGP campaign: "This season has been the best for☂ a few ꦬyears.

“As everything started to progress, the🌃re's been less passing. This year's been phenomenal, hasn't it? We love it.

"I watch it with my little boy. I think it's been a very good season, and I hope it con✨tinues🐷."

Johann Zarco brilliantly w🌃on the French MotoGP as an underdog in front of his home cro൩wd.

It was Honda’s first win in two years, and denied Ducati an all-time record for𒁏 consecutive grand prix wins in the premier class.

Marc Marquez’s ride to second-place at Le Mans gave him a firm 🔜grip on the champions𒉰hip lead.

Pecco Bagnaia endured another round to forget.
