God I love this race, watching live stream at sbs.com.au now. 10 mins to live pics on TV. Let the carnage begin!:thumbsu:
 
Shame. Quickstep just cant take a break today!

Strange PR so far, all the favourites are shadow boxing..
 
AFL and NRL could take a lesson from SBS and their ability to easily stream online.

He won by 19 seconds which is not inconsiderable. In reality, he would have won by more than that - probably about 30 seconds. He slowed down during his final lap of the velodrome, enjoying the chance to soak in the atmosphere in the knowledge that he could not be beaten. While he was slowing, Cancellara and the 3 remaining members of the breakaway were all racing hell for leather in a battle for the remaining podium positions.

No win in this race is ever "easy", but he did have a fairly comfortable margin up his sleeve at the end.

I think this is what Freakie meant.

Anyways, good on him. Paris-Roubaix is always special, and now his name goes down in history.
