2015 GP Montreal map and profile

The 2015 Grand Prix Cycliste de Montréal is a circuit race with a challenging course. It's 17 laps of 12.1 km with three climbs, totaling 205.7 km. The race ends with an uphill finish on Avenue du Parc.

Tim Wellens wins GP Montréal

The climbs:

• Côte Camilien-Houde: 1.8 km long @ 8% average gradient
• Côte de la Polytechnique: 780 meters @ 6%
• Avenue du Parc: 560 meters @ 4%

The race: It was a very wet day in Montréal, which has to go a long way to explaining why only 64 riders finished the World Tour race.

Several times, breakaways got away and were caught, but when the race was in its final lap, the remaining riders were together. Adam Yates escaped on the Camilien-Houde and was soon joined by Tim Wellens. They never got far from the others, but it was enough. Wellens had more punch to beat Yates in the sprint to win his third World Tour race this year.
