It does but i'm not sure i've seen it on the course.

A couple of years ago they used an F type coupe as a "support" vehicle for Froome on the TT stages, and last year they used an F Pace - I presumed the Mustang would be used similarly this year, i've not noticed if they have.

I've glimpsed it on the ITV4 TdF coverage a couple of times. Usually parked up at the side of the course ahead of the peloton, being used by the support team member dishing out drinks and/or nosebags as far as I can tell. The camera bikes never linger on it though, and I've not got the IT skills nor the patience to search for and create a screen grab. The F-Type had a 'special projects' rear window conversion to stow a couple of spare bikes. I wonder if the Mustang has anything similar?
