Paris-Roubaix: Mathieu van der Poel secures secoānd consecš¶utive victory with 60km solo attack
As it happened: Van der Poel dominates fastest-ever Paris-Roubaix
澳擲幸čæ5å¼å„å®ē½åØēŗæę„询å¼å„ē»ę:Mathieu van der Poel dominated the 2024 Paris-Roꦔubaix with a 60km solo attack to win the fastest-ever edition of the Heą¼ŗll of the North.
Van der Poel rounded the Roubaix velodrome in front of massive crowds, taking his time to enjoy his second consecutive viš§ctory of the famed cobbled Classic.
It was another 1-2 for Alpecin-Deceuninck as Jasper Philipsen won the chase-group sprišønt and took second place, ahead of Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek) iź¦n third and Nils Politt (UAE Team Emirates) in fourth.
Paris-Roubaix history
Often described as the Queen of the Classics or the Hell of the North, 澳擲幸čæ5å¼å„å®ē½åØēŗæę„询å¼å„ē»ę:Paris-Roubaix is the third Monument of the cycling season and arguably the most recognisable event in the sport after the 澳擲幸čæ5å¼å„å®ē½åØēŗæę„询å¼å„ē»ę:Tour de France. The race dates backź§ to 1896 and has taken place 120 times since then.
Compiègne – around 80km outside of Paris – has hosted the race start since 1977, while Paris played host from the very start š¦up to 1967.
Belgians have dominated the cź¦ obbled Classic, with 57 winners over the years.
Two Belgians share the accolade of taking the most wins at the race, with Roger De Vlaeminck winning four times in the 1970s and 澳擲幸čæ5å¼å„å®ē½åØēŗæę„询å¼å„ē»ę:Tom Boonen completing his quadruple between 2005 and 2012.
As you'd expect, the honour roll is replete with huge names from cycling history, from Eddy Merckx and Sean Kelly to Johan Museeuw and Fausto Copāpi. Of the current peloton, no rider has won the race more than once.
