The new GhentWevelgem champion became the first Eritrean to win a WorldTour race, and the first African to win a Classic, on Sunday when he sprinted to victory from a small group to win the Belgian cobbled Classic, having taken in three ascents of the Kemmelberg, extricated himself from the clutches of a dangerous-looking Wout van Aert (JumboVisma), and then dispatched van Aert’s team-mate Christophe Laporte, Dries Van Gestel (TotalEnergies) and Jasper Stuyven (Trek-Segafredo) in the final 250 metres.
