ROUBAIX, France (AP) — Pauline Ferrand-Prévôt overcame sickness and a crash to win the Paris-Roubaix women's race for the first time on Saturday with a well-timed solo breakaway.

The 33-year-old from France added the prestigious and grueling Roubaix classic to her Olympic mountain bike gold medal at the Paris Games last year and the 2014 world road race title.
