Ive Relive the final KM as ?? @DylanvanBaarle wins Paris-Roubaix!
P Return to last kilometer and victorious ?? @DylanvanBaarle! mainly in the second half of the track. The cyclists enjoyed the challenging races in sunny weather. At the beginning, several groups tried to escape, but Owain Doull (EF Education-EasyPost), Laurent Pichon (Arkea-Samsic) and Alexandr Ryabushenko (Astana) managed to break away, but they did not have a bigger lead. Behind them, the peloton split into two groups in the wind and the second surprisingly remained favorites Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin-Fenix), Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma), Mads Pedersen (Trek-Segafredo), Matteo Trentin (UAE Team Emirates), Alexander Kristoff (Intermarché-Wanty-Gobert), Kasper Asgreen (QuickStep) or Greg Van Avermaet. There were about 70 competitors in the first group and all Ineos riders worked on it, who took care of the division of the peloton. The van der Poel and van Aert group lost more than a minute 170 km ahead of the finish line and worked hard to catch up. Another 30 km, the shortage shrank in less than a minute, in the peloton, there was a big fall in the section with cubes, so it split again. About 90 km before the finish line, van der Poel and van Aert also reached the group that remained from the main package, and Matej Mohorič (Bahrain Victorious), Tom Devriendt (Intermarche-Wanty-Gobert) and Laurent Pichon ( Arkea-Samsic), a piece behind the trio was van Baarle. The trio had about 40 seconds before the end for a good 40 seconds. Only Mohorič, Devriendt, Lampaert, van Barle in the leading group remained in the game for the final 30 km, followed by Stefan Küng (Groupama-FDJ), van der Poel, Ben Turner (Ineos), Pichon, Adrien Petit (Intermarche -Wanty-Gobert), Jasper Stuyven (Trek-Segafredo) and van Aert, who, however, had a defect and again had to relinquish the loss. Van Baarle attacked 17 km before the finish and finally made his attempt to a victorious end, as Mohorič and Lampaert and others were no longer able to withdraw the loss. Lampaert eventually lost the podium after one of the spectators at the track misled him and the Belgian fell.
