I hope the big pack will stay behind the small one, cause then Breschel could do a very decent result in a bunch sprint.

They are getting caught because Breschel ain't there anymore!
Hope it will be a more interesting race then Flanders. |

if you try hard in this race, you're dead in Roubaix. it's been well established. it's also the reason most favorites don't move a muscle or even don't show up (Hoste). Boonen will show up if it's a sprint

Think Cavendish is in with a great chance now that its looking like coming down to a sprint, but theres so many big names.
So, Cav with my heart
Freire/Hushovd/Boonen with my head  |

20 km to the finish, there is a big peloton.
Kurt-Asle Arvesen has just attacked. |

Elminger has also attacked and joined Arvesen in the break. Should still come down to a sprint |

O'Grady, Quinziato, and Guesdon have bridged the gap to Arvesen and Elminger. Should be caught by the bunch though in the run in |

Freire takes the win in a long sprint, nice done by Rabobank. |

Great race. Freire's form looked good all day. Where was Boonen or Cavendish? |

Boonen didnt participate in the sprint, only did some minor work for Weylandt, this is only training for sunday anyway for him
Cav probably lost the wheel of Hammond
