Stream Paris-Roubaix 2026 live as three-time reigning champion Mathieu van der Poel aims to achieve the seemingly impossible and fend off Tadej Pogacar. The Hell of the North has become an obsession for the Slovenian force of nature, who's been training on the 258.3km course this year and has said that he'd even trade a Tour de France title for a golden pavé.
Pogacar has won the other four Monuments, most recently the Tour of Flanders – ahead of van der Poel – last weekend, and it speaks volumes of his talent and mindset that finishing second to the Flying Dutchman after a crash on his Paris-Roubaix debut a year ago has inflicted such a deep-seated scar.
Such is the ferocity of his intent that van der Poel has cut a forlorn figure in the lead-up to a race at which he could make history. Only Roger De Vlaeminck and Tom Boonen have ever won four editions of the Paris-Roubaix, and neither of them did so in consecutive years.
Mads Pedersen joined them on the podium 12 months ago, and will likely battle for third with Wout van Aert, Jasper Philipsen, Filippo Ganna and Jonathan Milan.
