He was feeling sick was the announcement from the team mid-race. I don't know if they've made a statement afterwards.Anybody knows why he DNF in Montreal?… Thanks in advance
Sunday will be the day he is waiting for: WC RR.
Memorial Pantani was canceled, so no race last weekend. I hope his eye is OK, and he has no disadvantage from the eye injury.
He will want to become World Champion on Sunday. I hope he achieves this goal, but it‘ll be hard vs riders like MvDP or Wout or Pogi.
Podium would be good, victory even better. He beat Laporte and Mathieu in big races this season already.

Biniam Girmay will start his season this week at Mallorca Challenge. Anyone knows if his eye injury from last year’s Giro podium ceremony still is a problem for him?
Did he suffer permanent damage to his eye, and is his eyesight still impaired?
Thank you in advance

Difficult to finish a race when the Giro took out all of your eyes.

The team said he was suffering from a headache, he’s now heading back home to prepare for the classics.

I really hope his eyes can survive all these races.

He might be nice to the competition, and not win all the races.
Tomorrow is the day… Good luck, Biniam!

Biniam was 28th yesterday… What do you think of his performance?
I think it wasn‘t perfect, but I also don‘t really know how his finale went… Small aspects decide about 1st or 30th there…

He's been over-hyped on what he's done to date - He's not yet at the same level as the BIG riders.

Here you can see he was in front of the bigger group with Asgreen, Valter, Politt, etc.

After Trentin lets 8 riders get a gap (7 of the top-8 plus Wellens), only Powless, Turgis, Stuyven, and Alaphilippe get away from the peloton. It's not surprising that he wasn't strong enough for that, he wasn't last year neither.
My guess would be that he tried hard on the Poggio, but just couldn't make it, and that was the reason why he either didn't sprint or was too gassed to do so properly.
EDIT:
So he attacks out of the group on the descent just at this exact spot! That explains why he didn't sprint after he was caught.

I think the one on the attack might be Rota, who wasn't caught on footage on that video and finished just behind Girmay.
The italian is generally speaking a good descender so it should make sense for him going on the attack downhill and let Girmay wait on the pack.
