A rejuvenated Giacomo Nizzolo powered past Pascal Ackermann and his Bora teammates to take victory on Stage 2 of Paris-Nice.
The race was blown apart by crosswinds, leaving a group of 10 riders at the head of the race, with both Nairo Quintana and Julian Alaphilippe facing difficulties which left to lose yet more time as they crossed the line behind the favourites.
