Biniam Girmay had to give up injured in the fifth and last stage of the Tour de Wallonie. The leader of Intermarché-Wanty-Gobert crashed more than 100 kilometers before the finish on a cobbled section and was left battered on the stones. The damage at Girmay is not too bad.

For the 22-year-old Girmay, the Tour de Wallonie was his first race in the second part of the season. After the five days in Belgium, the top talent from Eritrea would also ride the Tour du Limousin, the Bretagne Classic and the Canadian WorldTour races. Girmay may have to delete from his program.
