Classica Corsica was an elite men's road bicycle racing event held in 2015 on the island of Corsica, a region of France. It was run two days before the Critérium International stage race, which had been held on Corsica every year since 2010. The Classica itself was a legacy event of the 2013 Tour de France, when the race held its Grand Départ and first three stages on the island.[1] The event was UCI 1.1 rated and was part of the 2015 UCI Europe Tour.[2] The route of the race saw the riders depart Ajaccio and finish in Bastia after 204 kilometres (127 miles) taking in the Col de Vizzavona and the , before flattening out in the second half of the stage, which represented essentially a reverse running of the second stage from the 2013 Tour.[3][4][5]
