Thanks for joining us today for what was an utterly scintillating race - perhaps even better than last week's Tour of Flanders.

0km

Result: 1. Terpstra, 2. Degenkolb, 3. Cancellara, 4. Vanmarcke, 5. Stybar, 6. Sagan, 7. Thomas, 8. Langeveld, 9. Wiggins, 10, Boonen.

0km

Geraint Thomas took seventh in the sprint and Wiggins took ninth.

0km

John Degenkolb punches the air to take second place ahead of Fabian Cancellara. They finished 20 seconds down.

0km

The host broadcaster failed to show the final spring for the remaining podium positions! Terrible stuff there - they were following the third group to the line!

0km

Victory in Paris-Roubaix for Niki Terpstra of Omega Pharma-Quick Step!

0.5km

The bell rings!

1km

Terpstra makes the turn into the velodrome and he'll be able to parade himself to victory!

1.5km

Unless he picks up a flat, this is his. What a ride from Terpstra.

2km

Terpstra approaching the final cobbled section, just 300m outside the velodrome. It's his to lose now.

2.5km

It's a race for second place now... 18 seconds now the gap.

3km

They are all cooked. None of the chasers has an answer. Sagan looks like he's about to wilt and fall to the side of the road.

3.5km

Terpstra's face is a picture of pain as he gasps for air. He has 15 seconds. Finally, a success for Omega Pharma-Quick Step!

4km

It's now back up to 14 seconds. They have given up!

4.5km

Eight seconds now for Terpstra. It's now a pursuit. This is very exciting.

5km

Tepstra has 11 seconds and they're hesitating behind. He can do this.

5.5km

All or nothing for Terpstra. Quick Step had to do that - with the numerical advantage it would have been offensive had they not.

6km

ATTACK: Niki Terpstra pings off the front!

6.5km

De Backer is burying himself for team-mate Degenkolb. Just the one more cobbled section before the velodrome...

7km

Wiggins, Thomas, De Backer, Degenkolb, Boonen, Terpstra, Stybar, Cancellara, Vanmarcke, Langerveld and Sagan... one of these will win. The chasing group is at 22 seconds.
