The 2024 Paris–Roubaix was a road cycling one-day race that took place on 7 April in France. It was the 121st edition of Paris–Roubaix and the 16th event of the 2024 UCI World Tour.
The race was won by Dutch rider Mathieu van der Poel of Alpecin–Deceuninck for the second year in succession, after a solo attack over 60 kilometres.[1] The margin of victory (3 minutes exactly) was the largest since the 2002 edition of the race. For the third year in succession, the race was the fastest on record with an average speed of 47.85 kilometres per hour (29.73 mph), beating the record set during the 2023 edition.[1]

Route
Starting in Compiègne, the race finished on the velodrome in Roubaix after covering 259.7 kilometres (161.4 mi), with 55.7 kilometres (34.6 mi) of cobblestones (the longest in 30 years), spread out over 29 sectors.[2] A chicane was added prior to the entrance of the Trouée d'Arenberg sector, to slow the speed of riders and improve safety.[3][4] Some riders criticised the decision, with Mathieu van der Poel stating "Is this a joke?".[3][4]
