WIN STAGE 3

Girmay started the Tour with a bang, outsprinting a stacked bunch on the third and longest stage after 231km of racing on the course from Plaisance to Turin. A result that not only secured him valuable points for the sprint classification, but also gave him a massive confidence boost for the days to come.

WIN STAGE 8

Already in the green jersey, Girmay proved this was no one-off with a repeat performance on stage 8. His victory on the day's stage from Semur-en-Auxois to Colombey-les-Deux-Eglises was down to some brilliant teamwork led by team mates Kobe Goossens and Georg Zimmermann. Girmay edged ahead of the bunch on the finish climb to extend his lead in the sprint points classification.

WIN STAGE 12

But the crowning moment came on stage 12, a 203.6km course from Aurillac to Villeneuve-sur-Lot. Girmay outmanoeuvred his rivals to the line with a masterclass in tactics and power in the decisive final part of the race to further consolidate his points lead and hold on the green jersey.
