Team Sky's Richie Porte recorded a winning time of 20-23 on the uphill time trial on Col d'Eze, which was enough to see off overnight GC leader Tony Gallopin (Lotto-Soudal) and the challenge of Michal Kwiatkowski (Etixx-QuickStep). The stage win gave Porte the overall victory at Paris-Nice by 30 seconds.
German time trial champion Tony Martin (Etixx-QuickStep) set the early benchmark, powering his way up the 9.6km parcours in a time of 20-52. In the end this was only enough to finish in fourth place, 29 seconds down on Porte.
