Cavendish accused of cheating Mark Cavendish earned his first stage win of the Giro Italia hours after he was accused of cheating by two rivals.
The Manxman won the 159km 10th stage from Termoli to Teramo after outsprinting Francisco Ventoso and Alessandro Petacchi at the finish.
But Ventoso claimed Cavendish had been towed up Mount Etna by a car in Sunday's stage after finishing 25 seconds inside the race cut-off point.
Garmin rider Murilo Fischer also accused Cavendish of receiving help.
"Incredible, he says he wants to win a stage at any cost and he does 10km holding on to a car," said the Brazilian.
