At the Tour de Suisse it seems like it was another difficult day for Mark Cavendish.
The riders today tackled the 198km route from Grindelwald to Huttwil, considerably flatter than the previous two which had seen them go over 2000 metres above sea level on both days.
Despite stage four being earmarked beforehand as one which may suit the sprinters, the Manx Missile finished in 147th, 7m 23s behind world champion Thor Hushovd.
The big Norwegian, who Cavendish is no stranger to tussling with at the end of stages, outsprinted the young Slovakian rider Peter Sagan.
Sagan had won yesterday's third stage.
Tomorrow is another long stage, 204km from Huttwil to Tobel-Tagerschen, but features no significant climbs.
