Paris-Roubaix report/As it happened
Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin-Deceuninck) powered to a third win in a row in the Hell of the North as runner-up and race debutant Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates-XRG) stayed on terms with the defending champion into the finale, but then faded to second after misjudging a turn and having an ungraceful get-off with 40 kilometres to go.
Van der Poel, en route to victory brushed off challenges like a bidon flung at him by a spectator and his own late puncture to go solo to the finish, ahead of Pogačar, Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek) then claimed the last spot in the winner's podium from a sprint of three.
