Eritrea’s Biniam Girmay became the first Black African rider to win a stage on the Tour de France when he prevailed in a reduced bunch sprint at the end of the third stage on Monday.
Pre-stage favourite Jasper Philipsen of Belgium was involved in a huge crash with 2.3km left of the stage. “To be part of the Tour de France is already incredible. I was dreaming of taking part and now I can’t control my emotions,“ a teary-eyed Girmay said. With no champagne on the podium, Girmay was unlikely to suffer the same fate as on the 2022 Giro when he had to pull out of the race after a Prosecco cork flew into his eye on the podium.
The peloton kept the TotalEnergie rider on a tight leash through the Barbaresco vineyards, and reined him in 29 kilometres from the line.
