The 2 x Thomas and 2 x Remy main break started just 6 km from the start: R-to-L: Thomas Voeckler (Europcar), Remi Pauriol (FdJ), Thomas De Gendt (Vacansoliel-DCM) and Francis De Greef (Omega Pharma-Lotto)share this photo

The four man break has held off the peloton in Belleville. Something Yogi Berra would say: if there is a 50-50 chance of the break succeeding at Paris-Nice then always take the odds.share this photo

The early break survived thanks to Thomas de Gendt dragging them the final kms to the line. Europcar's Thomas Voeckler then won the slightly uphill bunch sprint with the peloton in the background 13s back.share this photo
