The race started in Dreux, 70 km (43 mi) west of Paris, and finished in Tours, in the center-west of France, after 252.5 km (156.9 mi) of racing. The edition featured no significant climbs.[3]
The event was exceptionally scheduled one week before the Road World Championships in Qatar, because of milder temperatures in Qatar later in October. Organizers adjusted the race finale, as they wanted to emulate the flat world championship course, spurring prominent sprinters to contest this year's Paris–Tours.[3][4]
TeamsEdit
188 riders of 24 teams started the race.[5] Each team had a maximum of eight riders:[6][7]
