The fearsome five-star cobbled sectors that you won't want to miss are the Trouée d'Arenberg, Mons-en-Pévèle, and Carrefour de l'Arbre, while the finish in the Roubaix velodrome is iconic in itself. The presence of Pogačar – a three-time Tour de France champion – adds a new layer of intrigue to what is always an unmissable event. Tour de France champions don't usually show their face at Paris-Roubaix, but Pogačar is the world champion and an all-rounder in incredible form after his solo exhibition at the Tour of Flanders last weekend.
Mathieu van der Poel, winner of the past two editions, is still the favourite, with Mads Pedersen also a leading contender for the cobblestone trophy.
