Preview
The Critérium International began as the Critérium International de la Route in 1932
which was started by Gaston Benac, the reporter for the newspaper Paris-Soir.
It was initially thought of as a spring-time Championship of France following
the roads up the Vallée de Chevreuse and finishing on the velodrom at the Parc des
Princes. In 1978 it went to the three stage, 2-day formula. The parcours which
involves rolling terrain, climbing and an ITT leads to a rider with complete
skills being successful. The race is based around Vaucluse in the south of France.
