Paris-Roubaix: “Is this a joke? », the addition of a chicane before Arenberg makes Mathieu Van der Poel jump. The defending champion, winner of the Tour of Flanders last week, was worried this Wednesday about this new installation supposed to slow down the riders.

According to our information, this chicane will only be used for this 2024 edition. The organizers have already imagined, for the coming years, a much more flexible installation, this time on the left side, with specific arrangements.
