The spectator who threw a water bottle at Mathieu van der Poel during last weekend’s Paris-Roubaix has issued a public apology, calling his act a "stupid gesture."

The Lille public prosecutor’s office confirmed Monday that it has opened an investigation into "violence with a weapon" after a water bottle was thrown at Mathieu van der Poel during his Paris-Roubaix victory on Sunday.

Mathieu van der Poel won cycling's Paris-Roubaix for a third straight time on Sunday, edging Tour de France champion Tadej Pogacar in the race nick-named 'The Hell of the North.'

By Sunday evening, Mathieu van der Poel could become the first back-to-back Paris-Roubaix winner since Tom Boonen. But don’t expect the reigning champion to go it alone. Jasper Philipsen, twice a runner-up here, is more than just a shadow. He’s a contender. And together, they’re ready to shake the race apart.

American cycling legend Greg LeMond believes Tadej Pogacar can conquer the grueling Paris-Roubaix at his first attempt on Sunday—and is well on his way to becoming the sport’s greatest rider of all time.

The 2025 edition of Paris–Roubaix may be 400 meters shorter on cobbles than last year, but don’t let that fool you—this will still be hell on wheels.

Mathieu van der Poel. Tadej Pogačar. Wout van Aert. All three will line up this Sunday for Paris-Roubaix, and one thing is certain—no amount of hype will protect them once the wheels hit the stones.

Tadej Pogacar won an epic see-saw showdown at the Tour of Flanders 2025 on Sunday, soloing home from 15 kilometers, with Mads Pedersen edging Mathieu Van der Poel to second at the line a minute later and Wout van Aert fourth.

The cycling season is filled with storied events. Some are one-day battles. Some last weeks.

American Neilson Powless won the Dwars door Vlaanderen 2025 (Across Flanders) cobbles classic Wednesday, leaving Wout van Aert and his Visma team with egg on their faces.

Four of the six traditional segments of the Flanders Classics will be taking place in April this year, and next up is the Dwars door Vlaanderen on April 2.

Danish cyclist Mads Pedersen won Gent-Wevelgem 2025 on Sunday at the end of a 55-kilometer solo burst, adding to his previous victories at the classic in 2020 and 2024.

The new cycling season is picking up momentum, and some of the sport’s biggest names already are making headlines.

Tadej Pogačar is going to Paris-Roubaix. It’s official—and it’s huge.

Denmark's two-time Tour de France winner Jonas Vingegaard revealed Monday that he suffered a lengthy concussion after crashing during Paris-Nice on March 13, leaving him feeling tired and nauseous for days afterward.
