Netflix hasn\u2019t revealed a great deal of information about Mark Cavendish: Never Enough<\/em> just yet, but from its blurb for the film, we can assume the film will hinge around the last 7 years of Cavendish\u2019s career.<\/p>\n

Netflix explains how in 2016 Cavendish needed just four stage wins at the Tour de France to equal Eddy Mercx\u2019s record of 34-stage wins, but instead, Cavendish went through five years of well-documented illness, injury and depression.<\/p>\n

The 2021 Tour de France<\/a> saw Cavendish equal Merckx\u2019s 34 wins and \u2013 after not being selected for the Grand Boucle in 2022 \u2013 this year\u2019s edition of the race is the last opportunity he has to claim the record.<\/p>\n

Netflix describes Cavendish\u2019s story as \u201cone of the most inspiring and unexpected comebacks in sporting history.\u201d<\/p>\n

A teaser trailer released on social media shows Mark Cavendish, covered in grime, expressing frustration after a race.<\/p>\n

The teaser trailer also shows analysis from Lance Armstrong who describes how he thinks Cavendish\u2019s \u201ctime has come and gone.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the eve of his last ever Tour de France, we\u2019re excited to announce new documentary MARK CAVENDISH: NEVER ENOUGH.The film charts the rise, fall and resurrection of a genuine sporting great as he attempts to prove the doubters wrong and make cycling history.
