The race included four stages. The first was a 12.1-kilometre (7.5 mi) team time trial. The remaining stages were all mountainous, with Stage 2 ending with a summit finish in Anras.^[1] The previous year's champion, BMC Racing Team's Richie Porte, chose not to compete. The principal favourites for victory were Mikel Landa (Team Sky), Romain Bardet and Domenico Pozzovivo (both AG2R La Mondiale) and Vincenzo Nibali (Astana).^[2]

After Astana won the opening team time trial, Landa won the second stage with its summit finish. The last two stages were both won by Astana's Tanel Kangert.
