Tour de France 2014: Harrogate

Prince Harry presents the king of the mountains jersey to Jens Voigt of Trek Factory Racing after stage one of the Tour de France in Harrogate.

German cyclist Marcel Kittel won the first stage of the Tour de France, and British hopeful Mark Cavendish suffered a crash at the finish line.

Marcel Kittel won the 190.5-kilometre opening stage from Leeds to claim the yellow jersey on the opening day for a second successive year.

Cavendish was aiming to emulate Tom Simpson, Chris Boardman, Sean Yates, David Millar, Sir Bradley Wiggins and Chris Froome by becoming the seventh Briton to wear the fabled maillot jaune.

Mark Cavendish has been taken to Harrogate District Hospital after a dramatic fall as he made a sprint to the finish line at the end of day one in Harrogate.

The Manx rider looked in pain as he nursed his shoulder, leading to speculation that he might have seriously damaged his collar bone.

Mark Cavendish's bid for the yellow jersey ended in a heap as the Manxman tumbled to the tarmac in a dramatic conclusion to the opening stage of the 101st Tour de France in Harrogate.
