Stage 8 of Paris-Nice runs from Nice to Nice over 129.2 kilometers.
Route identity
The final Nice circuit is short, hilly, and built for repeated attacks rather than a controlled chase into a bunch finish.
Likely race dynamic
If the GC is still close, the last day should invite long-range attacks over the climbs above Nice before the technical return to town.
Likely winner archetype
An explosive climber-descender or fearless GC rider willing to attack early.
Prospective winners
Jonas Vingegaard, Kévin Vauquelin, Pavel Sivakov
