  • Sir Bradley Wiggins and Mark Cavendish outline their contrasting ambitions for the Dubai Tour 2016, where Wiggins will be looking to mentor his team and Cavendish to retain his title from last year.

    2012 Tour de France winner Wiggins is set to make his bow in the UAE as part of Team Wiggins for the four-stage race, which begins with a 179km trek from Dubai Marine International Club (DIMC) to Fujairah.

    The clash between Cavendish and Kittel is expected to be the main talking point during the 16-team race, with speedsters set to dominate the running on courses which are flat except the uphill finish to Hatta Dam on Friday.

    Former road race world champ-ion Cavendish won two stages last year on his way to supremacy in the general classification and he was excited about competing in the tour once again.
