In Paris-Roubaix’s brutal 258-km cobbled classic, Wout van Aert outgunned Tadej Pogačar in the velodrome after a day that punished everyone, from Ganna’s multiple punctures to Mathieu van der Poel’s late rally that fell short due to mechanical woes. The race underscored Roubaix’s democratic cruelty: endurance and resilience prevail when the road breaks the field, and van Aert’s victory adds another chapter to a career defined by the moments between rises and falls.
