Arenberg out!

From a pop-up press release on letour.fr: No forest of Wallers-Arenberg
in this year's Paris-Roubaix, for safety reasons. Apparently the road
surface has deteriorated considerably in the last few years. Despite not
including this famous stretch of cobbles of 2.4 km, the total length of
cobbled sections is now 53.2 km, 2 km more than last year.

Is it true that Hainault is coming out of retirement now that the forest is
out?
