France will get just a partial Olympic win on Wednesday when its bid to host the 2030 Winter Games is presented to IOC members.

International Olympic Committee president Thomas Bach confirmed Tuesday that full approval for the bid centered on ski resorts in the French Alps and coastal city Nice cannot be given since parliamentary elections this month left France with only a caretaker national government.

There will be a vote on the 2030 project but it will be a vote being linked with conditions, Bach said about a scheduled meeting Wednesday, hours before team sports start play at the Paris Summer Games .
