Nazon in doubt for Paris-Nice

AG2R sprinter Jean-Patrick Nazon may not start Paris-Nice because he is ill. Nazon has hardly ridden since the Tour Méditerranéen, only returning to training on Friday after a course of antibiotics was required to shift a particularly stubborn case of bronchitis.

The team will decide Thursday or Friday whether Nazon is fit to ride, and Alexandre Usov will step in if Nazon is insufficiently recovered.
