Tour de France Champions Already On The Attack! | Paris-Nice 2023 Highlights - Stage 1

This year’s Race to the Sun begins with a dynamic 169.3km stage around La Verrière that offers equal opportunities to both the sprinters and the escape artists. With a short but explosive climb (1.2km at 6%) just before the finish, will any team do a Jumbo-Visma and launch a successful breakaway in the final kilometres like we saw on last year's opening stage?
