Paris-Nice 2014 Riders and teams

Paris-Nice starts on the 9th of March and is the second World Tour race of the season. Richie Porte won the overall in 2013 but will not defend his title as he replaces the injured Chris Froome in Tirreno-Adriatico. Vincenzo Nibali (image) will definitely be participating however and will start as favourite.
