2006 Paris Roubaix 2006

The 2006 Paris-Roubaix turned out to be quite memorable. The race came one week after the Tour of Flanders, with World Champion Tom Boonen riding high on his victory. George Hincapie also had a strong finish on the podium in Flanders, and came to Paris-Roubaix in top-notch form with a killer drive to win and a strong team to support him. Hincapie has wanted to add a win at Paris-Roubaix to his palmares for years, but things don't always turn out though. Hincapie's race ended up being very memorable, but unfortunately not in the way he wanted it to. The field was both strong and deep. Apart from Boonen and Hincapie, other strong riders including Peter Van Petegem (Davitamon), Fabian Cancellara (CSC), Juan Antonio Flecha (Rabobank), Steffen Wesemann (T-Mobile) animate the action.

Legend: Fabian Cancellara 2020

Fabian Cancellara is one of the greatest Classics riders ever, with three Tour of Flanders wins and three editions of Paris-Roubaix to his name. He also won the world time trial championships four times and took eight stage victories at the Tour de France, wearing the yellow jersey for a total of 29 days. He hung up his wheels in 2016, after claiming his second Olympic gold medal.
