Stage 2 preview: Rambouillet → Saint-Georges-sur-Baulche, 205 km (rolling)
March 9 update: A straight route with only one cat 3 45 km from the finish. At first look it would seem like another sprint stage, but the road will be narrow so it could be unpredictable especially if the wind kick up. — SteveSee the race summary table (right) for the Stage 2 profile, map and timetable.

Stage 1 preview: Mantes-la-Jolie → Mantes-la-Jolie, 163 km (rolling)
March 7 update: Unlike previous years, there is no prologue for this year's event. In fact, there is no time-trialing at all this year. Stage 1 meanders around the rolling terrain in and outside of Mantes-la-Jolie. Although, the stage starts and finishes in Mantes-la-Jolie, the start and finish locations are at different spots within the town limits. — SteveParis-Nice Stage 1 Preview — inrng
