Twenty-year-old Davide Donati won his first professional victory on stage 3 of the Tour de Wallonie, winning a hectic sprint with a late surge down the middle.
Donati is part of the Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe Rookies development team but is riding the Tour de Wallonie as a guest with the Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe WorldTour team.
Eddy Le Huitouze (Groupama-FDJ), Henri-François Renard-Haquin (Wagner Bazin WB) and Rasmus Wallin (Uno-X Mobility) formed the early break of the stage but were kept under control by Israel-Premier Tech, riding for Strong and a sprint finish.
