This week sees La Course expand its format from a criterium held on the Champs-Elysées in Paris to an innovative two-day format.
They will climb the Col d'Izoard on stage one and then will take part in a new time trial format in Marseille, with the riders going off in the order they finished on the mountain.
But how will the event be received and what do some of the riders who will be taking part think of it?
