The race is strategically placed in the first half of June and is generally considered by cyclists to be a great prelude to the Tour de France and other events in the heart of the season.

 

The 2018 edition, with 9 days of race, will see the winners wearing the prestigious jerseys made by Santini: the yellow jersey for the leader in the general classification, the black jersey for the leader in the points classification, the azure jersey for the best climber.
