Primoz Roglic withstands the latest attacks of his rivals, in particular those insistent and desperate at the same time by the Englishman Simon Yates, and wins the 80th edition of the Paris-Nice cycling race.
The leadership of the Slovenian was literally saved by the Belgian Wout Van Aert, who was the protagonist on the Col d'Eze, marking the pace of the captain of his team with a performance of the highest level.

Yates triumphed in 2h52'59 ", preceding Van Aert himself at the finish line, second at 9", and precisely Roglic, third with the same time as his Belgian teammate.
In general the Slovenian won in 29h19'15 ", with a 29" advantage over Yates and 2'37 "over the Colombian Daniel Martinez, third.
