The diagonal course awaiting the Paris-Nice peloton from 5 to 12 March will provide several opportunities for sprinters, but the leading role will be reserved to climbers, who would do well to hit the road in good shape. The time trial to Mont Brouilly and, in particular, the weekend trilogy in Provence will provide a clear picture of who will shine in the 2017 season.

The route for the "Paris-Nice" race 2017 has been revealed and it includes an individual time trial with a steep finish at Mont Brouilly and a summit finish at the highest road ever tackled in the race’s 75-year history!

 

The race will take place over eight stages, starting just outside Paris in Bois-d’Arcy on March 5, and finishing in Nice on March 12.

 

Full details of some stages are still to be announced, but expect the opening three stages to be generally flat, with the sprinters battling it out for the leader’s yellow jersey.
