Analysis
More Paris-Nice than ever! No ingredient is spared from its usual features from previous years, the ‘Course to the Sun’ again an excellent opportunity for both classics riders and stage race specialists to measure themselves against each other in the beginning of the European spring
Four steep Cat-3 climbs in the Yvelines department (Sunday 3rd) will open the 2024 race, before a likely sprint -wind permitting- in Montargis (Monday 4th) and a team time trial (Tuesday 5th) set to open the first gaps. It will be 27km long, with two gentle yet difficult slopes plus an uphill finish in Auxerre. Times will be set by the first rider across the line, which should make for interesting strategies, just like in 2023, when most teams decided to lead out their GC captain to seek for the best possible result.
The Massif Central in all of its glory will be the venue for stage four (Wednesday 6th), climbing over no less than seven rated hills and overcoming Fût d’Avenas (Cat-1) and the finish atop the Mont Brouilly (Cat-2) to end. After that, two stages close to 200km -the one to Sisteron (Thursday 7th), suited to a sprint, and a double tough final slope in La Colle sur Loup (Friday 8th)- will take the race to its usual showdown in the Côte d’Azur.
A short stage seven (104km) with a mountain-top finish in Madone d’Utelle (15.3km at 5.7%), Saturday 9th, will be the prelude to the traditional ending ‘rollercoaster’ (Sunday 10th) in and around Nice: six ascents in just 109km, with the Col d’Eze (bonus) and Quatre Chemins (Cat-1; 3.6km at 8.8%) to decide the GC result.
