After several years with financial troubles, the Tour Mediteraneen may be unable to make ends meet in 2015. According to L'Equipe, there is a big risk that the race will be cancelled in the coming season.
One of the traditional early-season races in Europe is in doubt. Set to take place from February 12 to 15, the Tour Mediteraneen may disappear from the calendar in 2015 due to financial difficulties, president of the French Cycling League Marc Madiot tells L'Equipe.
If the organizers are unable to find the necessary funds, the race will be cancelled. It will be a big blow for the climbers who have often used the race in Southern France to test their legs in the famous summit finish on Mont Faron.
Last year Stephen Cummings won the race overall.
