The 2013 season for FDJ.fr began in January at the Tour Down Under. As a UCI ProTeam, they were automatically invited and obligated to send a squad to every event in the UCI World Tour.

Having raced as FDJ-BigMat in 2012, the team lost their sponsorship,[1] and competed as FDJ for the first half of the season. Prior to the Tour de France, it was announced that the team would change name slightly, becoming FDJ.fr.[2]
