Great race though. Always enjoy Paris-Roubaix; my favourite race of the year. One of the more accessible ones for neophytes too (way easier to understand and appreciate than the grand tours).
Agree that the maniacs jumping the level crossing need DQ-ing, plus a severe telling off.
Updating now
No bonus points for TGV-dodging, by the way.
I could've sworn I picked Deggers, but I didn't
still, at least had the foresight to stick a couple of quid on him 
(though that doesn't beat the 150/1 each-way bet I got on Theuns for Scheldepris! Any more of those and I'm quitting my job.).

should be disqualifications of anyone who jumped the barrier.
Possibly a large number of fines and/or disqualifications after 20-30 riders go through level crossing with barriers down and TGV on its way.
Steegmans also out. Not a good spring for Trek.
Gap below 7' at half way
S4C to broadcast it live from 15:10.
Not sure if it will be available to watch later.
