Wout van Aert has dreamed of winning Paris-Roubaix for his entire career and now, at the age of 31, the Belgian superstar has finally added one of the sport’s biggest prizes to his palmares.
To do so, Van Aert had to both match Tadej Pogacar’s pace in the final 50 kilometres, and then outsprint the world champion in Roubaix velodrome.
One of the sport’s most iconic races served up one of its most enjoyable editions, and one of its most emotional finishes.

When an insurance company is deciding whether to pay for your medical treatment, it generates a file, which should contain all records associated with your case, including documents explaining why the claim was denied.
You have a right to see this file.

Just watched a Shahed fly over central Kyiv. Everyone at the bus stop was gawking at the wing lights coming through the fog and its trademark moped sound.
It must have been flying pretty low, you could see the outline of the drone through the thick nighttime cloud cover.
