The 114th edition of Paris Roubaix was decidedly not going to script. Even after 100 kilometers into the race no one was able to gain even a minute or two on the following peloton. At this point those attempting to escape the big names of the sport were, Nils Politt (Katusha), Robin Stenvit (Wanty-Groupe Gobert), Evaldas Siskevicius (Delko Marseille Provence), Gediminas Bagdonas (Ag2r La Mondiale), Benoit Jarrier (Fortuneo-Vital Concept) and Kenneth Van Bilsen (Cofidis). Politt is taking the opportunity to peek back over his shoulder to see if he can espy those chasing from behind.
