ASO have announced the teams that will take part in the two-day Criterium International that takes place in the final weekend of March. The field will be led by 7 of the 17 WorldTour teams.
The Criterium International is known as a very prestigious stage race that allows riders to test themselves in a mountain stage, a time trial and a short sprint stage. This year's race will again be held in Corsica and takes place on March 28 and 29.
The field will be led by WorldTour teams Tinkoff-Saxo, Trek, Cannondale-Garmin, Giant-Alpecin, IAM, FDJ and the Ag2r team of defending champion Jean-Christophe Peraud. With the inclusion of IAM, last year's runner-up Mathias Frank is also likely to return to the event.
Unsurprisingly, the French pro continental teams Europcar, Cofidis and Bretagne will also be at the start and they will be joined by the new Dutch Roompot team, Bora Argon 18, UnitedHealthcare and the Danish CULT Energy. The final two teams are the French continental teams Marseille 13 KTM and Auber 93.
