Jonas Vingegaard, the two-time Tour de France winner, will make his season debut at Paris-Nice, scheduled from March 8th to 15th. This marks his third participation in the prestigious "Race to the Sun," where he aims to become the first Dane to win the general classification, having previously finished third in 2023 and abandoning due to a crash in 2025. Vingegaard, who has not competed since October, altered his initial season plans after a training crash on January 26th, opting to prioritize recovery. He expressed readiness to race after a long winter of preparation, with rivals expected to include Juan Ayuso and João Almeida.
