It started on 9 March in Mantes-la-Jolie and ended on 16 March in Nice and consisted of eight stages. It was the second race of the 2014 UCI World Tour season. The race took on an unusual profile in 2014 in that it did not feature a time trial of any description and did not have any stages with a summit finish. The intention was to make the race more open and encourage attacking racing rather than a defensive race ruled by time trial experts or the climbing specialists.The race was won by Colombia's Carlos Betancur of Ag2r-La Mondiale, who took the lead after winning the race's queen stage – the sixth stage to Fayence, his second successive stage victory – and held the lead until the finish in Nice, to become the first Colombian rider to win the race. Betancur won the general classification by 14 seconds over runner-up Rui Costa of the Lampre-Merida squad, while FDJ.fr's Arthur Vichot completed the podium – 6 seconds behind Costa and 20 seconds down on Betancur – after he was victorious on the final stage, picking up enough bonus seconds to move up the classification.In the race's other classifications, Giant-Shimano's John Degenkolb was the winner of the green jersey for the points classification, amassing the highest number of points during stages at intermediate sprints and stage finishes, and Pim Ligthart was the winner of the mountains classification for the Lotto-Belisol team. Betancur also won the white jersey for the young rider classification, as he was the highest placed rider born in 1989 or later, while the Movistar Team won the team classification."@en }
