Paris Nice 2024: Jorgenson at the top, the general classification

The 2024 edition of Paris Nice was won by the American Matteo Jorgenson

The first big stage race of the year ended this Sunday, March 10 with the triumph of the American Matteo Jorgenson of the Visma team ahead of the Belgian Remco Evenepoel who failed 30 seconds after his victory in the last stage of this Paris Nice. Asked if he always believed in victory, the American rider confided in us about the unfolding of this last day. “I was never sure until the Col des Quatre Chemins (10 km from the finish on Sunday), because you never know what can happen on a bike race. But on the Côte de Peille, I gained confidence when I saw that Brandon (McNulty)  é was released. With Remco (Evenepoel), we had the same goal, so he was the ideal breakaway partner.

For Evenepoel, “there are a lot of positives before the Tour de France”.”The only mistake I made was on Friday's stage where I hesitated too much to follow Jorgenson's attack. We also had a bit of bad luck in the team time trial(Tuesday) but the weather is part of the race, you have to accept it. Otherwise I don't see much negative, I finished 4th twice, 2nd yesterday(Saturday), I won the stage today (Sunday). Ça gives a lot of confidence for the next races in France and especially for the Tour."
