April 8/23 11:40 am - Alison Jackson Wins Paris-Roubaix Femmes
Posted by Editoress on 04/8/23
Canada's Alison Jackson (EF Education-Tibco-SVB) is the winner of the third edition of the Paris-Roubaix Femmes after nearly four hours of racing. A member of the decisive breakaway earlier in the race, Jackson outsprinted the five riders remaining in contention to take possibly the biggest win of her career. Katia Ragusa (Liv-Racing) and Marthe Truyven (Fenix-Deceuninck) finished second and third, respectively.

A crash caused chaos in the main bunch with all the favourites, but the final kilometres became a nail biter, as a group containing Lotte Kopecky (Team SD Worx), Marianne Vos (Team Jumbo-Visma) and Lucinda Brand (Trek-Segafredo) closed to within 12 seconds. In the final kilometre the gap was still over ten seconds to a group of seven containing Jackson, so it became apparent the winner was going to come out of the lead group.
Femke Markus (Team SD Worx) crashed in the final half lap, leaving six to contest for the win, with Jackson sitting in second behind Marta Lach (Ceratizit-WNT). As Lach faded, Marion Borras (St-Michel-Mavic-Auber 93) went to the front. But Jackson was biding her time, and surged out of the final corner of the Roubaix velodrome to win by a bike length.
"I saw it coming," said Jackson. "I had clear space ... it's just a dream come true. To cross the finish line first of any bike race is a special type of fun, but this tops that."
