Paris-Nice will returns for 2023 as the first WorldTour European stage race of the season, with a stellar line-up expected for the 81st edition of the Race to the Sun.
Last year's event was dominated by Jumbo-Visma as they held the yellow jersey from the first stage through Christophe Laporte, then Wout van Aert, then eventual winner Primož Roglic. It was also a race dominated by illness, with just 59 riders finishing the eight stages, less than half the peloton, thanks to a non-Covid bug.
