The 2012 Paris–Roubaix was the 110th running of the Paris–Roubaix single-day cycling race, often known as the Hell of the North. It was held on 8 April 2012 over a distance of 257.5 kilometres (160.0 miles) and was the tenth race of the 2012 UCI World Tour season.
Omega Pharma–Quick-Step's Tom Boonen won the race for a record-equalling fourth time,[1] after riding alone for 53 km (32.9 mi). With 56 km (34.8 mi) to go Boonen had made a breakaway with team-mate Niki Terpstra, but the latter quickly proved unable to follow the Belgian. Boonen continued solo to win in Roubaix by over a minute and a half. The second place was settled in a sprint finish with Team Europcar's Sébastien Turgot just edging out Alessandro Ballan of BMC Racing Team.[2][3]
