Mark Cavendish from the Isle of Man (GB) and team (Deceuninck-QuickStep) wins the thirteenth stage. He takes his fourth stage win of this year's Tour and 34th career win at the Tour equaling Eddy Merckx stage win record.

Cavendish was quoted saying "I can’t even think about it. I’m so dead after 220km, in that heat, in that wind, that final. I went deep there, so deep. The boys were incredible. I can’t believe it. It's still just another win on the Tour de France, it's like my first one. I've won a stage of the Tour de France, it's what I've dreamed of as a kid. It's what I dream of now. I've worked so hard for it."

Michael Mørkøv (Deceuninck-QuickStep) and Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Fenix) were second and third.

** Update
Several riders crashed after coming off on a downhill road that was lined by a loose gravelled surface. Soren Kragh Andersen (Team DSM), Warren Barguil (Arkéa-Samsic), Simon Yates (Team BikeExchange) and Roger Kluge (Lotto Soudal) have abandoned the Tour.

Kragh Andersen was quoted saying "I am really disappointed and don't want to leave the Tour de France. Deep down I know that the decision of the team's medical staff is the only right one. I hope this is the last bad luck for the guys here in the race. I wish them all the best for the final week."

Kluge was quoted saying "Luckily no fractures were found, which means Tokyo is the next step for me. But first everything has to heal, of course. I'm glad I didn't break anything and that the Games are still possible, but we have to see how the recovery goes. Fortunately, there is still some time. Suddenly everyone hit the brakes and when I grabbed my brakes I already hit a wheel. I clicked off my right pedal and fell on my right side. I crashed pretty hard and then I saw why everyone was braking… The road was littered with small stones and it was like driving on gravel. I was reminded of what Caleb Ewan said right after his crash. Like him, I immediately felt a lot of pain, especially in my back. I didn't even think about jumping on the bike again."
