Sagan cleared in Tour row

The UCI ruled yesterday that Peter Sagan did not intentionally elbow Mark Cavendish during a sprint finish at the Tour de France in a crash that led to the Slovak rider鈥檚 disqualification. The governing body of cycling said in a statement it has ended its legal dispute with the three-time world champion, a few hours before a scheduled hearing at the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Sagan was sent home from the three-week race after clashing with his British rival during the fourth stage. The incident forced Cavendish to abandon with a broken shoulder. Sagan鈥檚 Bora-Hansgrohe team immediately appealed the race jury鈥檚 decision to allow its rider to finish the race but the request was denied by CAS.
