ITV4 presenter Gary Imlach outlines the changes to this year's race for the green jersey and how they may help or hinder British sprinter Mark Cavendish.

There will be 45 points for a stage win instead of 35, which should benefit the Manxman, although the restructuring of intermediate sprints may also have an effect.
