Route
Montréal’s 214.4 kilometre race uses a new 13.4 kilometre circuit that will also feature at the World Championships later in September. The riders complete sixteen laps, adding up to 4,304 metres of climbing. Camillien Houde is the main test, followed by the steeper Polytechnique climb and a final rise towards Pagnuelo.
An uphill false flat on Avenue du Parc leads to the finish. The redesigned lap also includes a longer urban section, changing the rhythm without adding much climbing. With repeated ascents throughout the day, the course is built to wear riders down before the decisive final laps in Montréal.

Preview
Remco Evenepoel starts as one of the main favourites and the demanding Montréal circuit should suit him better than Québec. UAE Team Emirates-XRG brings several strong options, led by defending champion Brandon McNulty and Isaac del Toro, who arrives in excellent form.
Paul Seixas is another major contender on a course that rewards climbing strength and endurance. Tom Pidcock has the acceleration to make a difference on the steeper sections, while Giulio Ciccone and Juan Ayuso give Lidl-Trek multiple options. Quinn Simmons, Alberto Bettiol and Lennert Van Eetvelt are also riders to watch if the race opens early.
