The two Canadian WT race are held in Québec this Friday and this Sunday.
On Friday, it takes place in Québec (the city) :
I would say the 216 km race is for punchers-sprinters. Last year, Matthews🇦🇺 won; it is his race : he won it 3 times, has been on the podium each of the last 6 editions + 2 other times previously.
This year, the circuit was modified a bit compared to previous editions.
On Sunday, it takes place in Montréal :

This 209 km race offers a longer climb, opening the race and adding climbers and classicmen to punchers, with still a few sprinters. Pogatchar🇸🇮 won 2 of the last 3 editions, and he will be there on Sunday (as well as in Québec on Friday).
The circuit remains the same as previous editions.
I always find these gifted victories kinda weird. If you want to gift someone a victory, stay back and don’t attack. Don’t make it obvious that you’re stronger.
