Tornado Tom, Takes Two
The pre-race favorites fought it out fair
and square this year, making sure the best man won the 106th running of
the Queen of the Classics, and it was Tom Boonen’s return to glory
after a quiet spring — proving again that he is the best sprint
finisher of the elite Classics riders.
The 2008 Paris-Roubaix
was a dream race as the world’s best one-day racers broke from the pack
on the famous Arenberg cobbles, but those rocky roads took their toll
on contenders Juan Antonio Flecha and Filippo Pozzatto, who were down,
but not out, after crashes. The lead group had plenty of firepower
though, including all three of the past three winners. Boonen and
Belgian champion Stijn Devolder (Quick Step), Fabian Cancellara and
Stuart O’Grady (CSC), Alessandro Ballan (Lampre), and George Hincapie
(High Road) were all in the group that lead out of Arenberg forest.
By the time the final selection was made, it was down to Boonen,
Cancellara, and Ballan. Who would bet against that breakaway? With
Boonen and Cancellara jousting for advantage through the final
kilometers, the crafty Ballan stayed with the two favorites, hoping to
surprise them in the velodrome.
Every minute of racing drama
is here… The attacks, the crashes, and the excitement that make
Paris-Roubaix cycling’s most brutal one-day classic and one of
cycling’s most sought after wins.
