Wiggins looking to stay out of trouble in Tour

Bradley Wiggins was today set to stay out of trouble on the sixth stage of the Tour de France as Mark Cavendish again went in search of a 22nd Tour stage win of his career.

Memories of crashing out of the 2011 Tour led Wiggins and Team Sky to increase the tempo on the 196.5-kilometre fifth stage from Rouen to Saint-Quentin, which was won by Andre Greipel (Lotto-Belisol).
