  • Biniam Girmay made history as the first black African to win a Tour de France stage as Mark Cavendish was held up by a late crash on the run into Turin.
    In a reduced sprint finish, Eritrea's Girmay powered to victory, with Colombia's Fernando Gaviria and Belgium's Arnaud de Lie in second and third.
    At the finish an emotional Girmay, 24 - who won his first Grand Tour stage at the Giro d'Italia in 2022 - outlined the importance of his achievement.
    "I would say thanks to God for everything, for giving me all the strength and support," Girmay said.
    "Since I started cycling I was never dreaming to be part of the Tour de France but now I can't believe it. I want to say thank you to my family, my wife, Eritrea and Africa.
