Stage two of the Paris-Nice cycling event is set against challenging weather, with rain and cold temperatures but a lack of strong winds. While the flat parcours is anticipated to favor sprinters, past editions have shown how exposed roads can lead to unpredictable racing conditions, including potential echelon formations and crosswind effects. The stage promises excitement, despite the unfavorable weather conditions, as cyclists manage both the physical terrain and the elements.
While conditions certainly aren't ideal, with rain in the air and cold temperatures, there are no signs of any strong winds yet.
Matters are rarely that straightforward at Paris-Nice, however. The exposed roads that this stage takes place on are often affected by strong winds.
