And the 34-year-old says Paris-Nice will give riders the opportunity to show their form ahead of the Classics season.
“We’ve got a strong team riding in Paris-Nice,” he said. “It’s the first major stage race of the European season, so there’s traditionally some added intensity amongst the teams to set their stall out ahead of the classics.
“Being world TT champion is a great honour for me and having an F-TYPE Jaguar in rainbow colours following me on Sunday will be incredible.”
