Mcewan's is the record for a first year pro. The petatchi figure is for most wins this season.

Didn't McEwan only get 8 wins in his first season as a pro?

I thought he had past McEwen's and now was on for the Petacchi one. Still got Paris-Tours to go - imagine if he took that one!

Whatever, he has had a fantastic first season. And he's shown he can hold his form too. Brill.

To my knowledge that is correct. Cavendish has 10 victories so far this season, whilst the record for a neo pro is 11 victories.
p.s - Petacchi so far this season has 18.

Again, to my knowledge, no. That is his number of victories this season, although the figure includes all races, not just pro-tour. Maybe his record from a previous season was 18 but within the top tier of cycling only?
