After launching in 2021, Paris-Roubaix Femmes is back for its sixth edition, and will take place this year on Sunday, in tandem with the men's race for the first time.
Four days before the race, last year's winner Pauline Ferrand-Prévot (Visma-Lease a Bike) announced that she will go against her earlier schedule, and return to defend her title across the cobbles.
No rider has won the women's race twice, and while the Frenchwoman may hope to be the first to do so, she will face competition from Lotte Kopecky (SD Worx-Protime) and Alison Jackson (St Michel - Preference Home - Auber93), two other former winners on the start list.
There will be 123 riders at the start of the race in Denain. Teams are allowed to field a maximum of six riders, however two teams will compete with fewer: UAE Team ADQ, down to four after Sofie van Rooijnen suffered a training crash, and Ma Petite Entreprise, who will ride with five.
