Mark Cavendish

Manx cycling star Mark Cavendish has been fined and docked 25 points after causing a crash in the Tour of Switzerland yesterday.

Cavendish was fined 200 swiss francs, which is just short of £120.

Cav was battling for the lead when he collided with another competitor, causing a mass pile-up.

It's thought Cav will be fine for today's race, despite having received grazes.
