Nibali to ride Paris-Nice instead of Tirreno-Adriatico
Vincenzo Nibali will not seek a third successive Tirreno-Adriatico title in 2014, preferring instead to ride Paris-Nice as preparation for Milan-San Remo. Astana manager Giuseppe Martinelli explained that the new parcours of La Classicissima means that it will be Nibali’s primary early-season goal.

“The French race gives you an extra day of rest ahead of Milan-San Remo, which, with the addition of the Pompeiana, has become a major objective,” Martinelli told Gazzetta dello Sport, adding that Nice’s proximity to the finale of Milan-San Remo was another benefit. “If you stay in the same area, you can prepare better.”
