One hundred riders from several countries participated in a bicycle race. Only eighty riders, including Juan and Charlie, finished the race. Juan finished 5th and Charlie was the winner. All the riders' countries of origin and finishing times were recorded on the race register. No two riders who finished had the same time and those who did not finish were recorded as DNF.

The set of countries of origin of the riders that didn't finish (Yes or No)
