It was run in the Sarthe department between 7 and 10 April 2015 and consisted of five stages, two of which took place on the same day.

The race was won by the defending champion, Ramūnas Navardauskas (Cannondale–Garmin).

[1] Navardauskas won the race by one second ahead of Manuele Boaro (Tinkoff–Saxo), thanks to six seconds won on the final stage at intermediate sprints.

Two of these took place on the same day, with a short road stage in the morning and an individual time trial in the afternoon.

The three flat stages were seen as opportunities for sprinters such as Nacer Bouhanni (Cofidis), who was without a victory to that point in 2015, while the time trial and the summit finish were expected to decide the general classification.
