Biniam became the first Black African rider in history to win a stage at a Grand Tour! | Eurosport

Biniam is a very personable young man, as well as a great athlete, and I reckon he'll be a real benefit for the sport of cycling. Good luck to him.

I don't know how many times I have watched this clip and I can't get over the ecstatic feeling I get doing so!!! It's almost like living in a beautiful dream! Eritrea as an unapologetic African nation and it's people of indomitable spirit despite the hardships they are faced with everyday, are reflected in the tenacious spirit displayed by this once in a lifetime athlete. Loved the way he was depicted by the British announcer, his incredible ability to describe what is visible to every sports fan is simply unmatched by any play by play personalities around the globe hence kudos to you Sir as you made watching this historic moment extremely fun to witness! Moreover, the sportsmanship displayed by Mr. Vanderpool was immense. I was always proud of who I am as an Eritrean living in Canada 🇨🇦 but this kid by the name Biniam Girmay has even galvanized my identity to soar to a higher ground and for that I will be forever indebted to him. Thanks wedi Erey, nishto hawey, wedey...love you Bini!!! 🇪🇷 🇪🇷 🇪🇷 ❤

I am not an Eritrean but I couldn't have said it better. The announcer was one in a million, he made me enjoy watching this race. You can hear it in his voice he was happy for Bini. I believe he was the announcer as well when Bini won Gent Wevelgem. Van der Poel sportsmanship is to be applauded. As a black woman who loves to watch cycling I'm proud of this young man. Go Bini. Lots of success for the future.

[@liendatt8347]

I don't think it was a blunder by MVDP. I think VDP realized he didn't have the firepower for a 1 v 1 sprint against Bini so he gave it a go. He would've lost the sprint anyways.

[@samm7876]

Girmay started the sprint from a long way and MVD rightly followed him but made a mistake when he tried to pass him too early in the sprint. MVD style of sprint is to use explosive power for short distance while Girmay can sprint for a relatively long distance without reducing his power.
