Paris-Nice stage 7 pared back to 47km amid severe weather
TL;DR
Paris-Nice stage 7 was shortened to 47km due to heavy rain and snowfall, with riders bused to a new start on the Louis Nucéra bridge in Le Broc and the finish moved from the mountaintop at Auron to Isola-Village, omitting the decisive climb; the updated route runs the initial section to Isola and preserves an intermediate sprint there, with the change made for safety in consultation with local authorities and teams as Jonas Vingegaard leads the race into the penultimate stage.
