Tom Boonen won the Hell of the North (Paris-Roubaix) for the third time yesterday

After 2005 and 2008, Tornado Tom won his third Paris-Roubaix yesterday in Roubaix.
In the Vélodrome he crossed the finish line way before number two, Filippo Pozzato.

Just like last year and as it's usually the case in the race which is also called the Hell of the North, the 27 cobble stone zones - of 52,9 kilometers from a total of 259 kilometers - gave several falls, flat tyres and sometimes clouds of dust.
