Stage 3 of this year's Race to the Sun is a team time trial with a twist. At 32.1km in length, this is the first TTT to feature at Paris-Nice in over 30 years, and unlike as is usually the case, times are taken on the team's first rider across the line. In theory, we'll see teams to go harder and sacrifice more riders, but how will this play out on the roads around Dampierre-en-Burly? Useful Links: GCN+ | Every. Unmissable.

Stage 2 is another opportunity for the sprinters. With its meagre 1,000m of climbing and arrow-straight run into the finish in Fontainebleau, this 163.5km stage is much easier than yesterday's and should end with a big bunch sprint. It’s not a guaranteed opportunity however, especially in this exposed and wind-battered region just south of Paris where crosswinds are always a danger! Useful Links: GCN+ | Every. Unmissable.

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?

Omloop Het Nieuwsblad kicks off what is known as Opening Weekend - the first races in northern Europe of the classics season. The 207.3km route from Ghent to Ninove tackles 13 hellingen - the bone-rattling cobbled climbs of Flanders - as well as seven more flat cobblestone sectors. The final 20km traces the old run-in of the Tour of Flanders, featuring the mythical duo of the Muur van Geeraardsbergen and the Bosberg. Useful Links: GCN+ | Every. Unmissable.

At 17.3km in length, this year’s TTT course is almost twice as long as last year’s ITT course (9km). It’s very similar though - a simple out-and-back with just two U-turns either side of Khalifa Port to slow the riders down. Add to that a perfectly flat and exquisitely tarmacked surface and you have one of the fastest courses imaginable. Useful Links: GCN+ | Every. Unmissable.
