Track cycling: Even after day #3 there was a change at the top at the Six Day Berlin. The German duo of Roger Kluge and Theo Reinhardt was able to regain the lead. However, it remains really exciting, because there are four more teams in the clear round.
Six Day Berlin: Five teams in the zero round
Back at the top: Roger Kluge and Theo Reinhardt go to bed as leaders after the third night – just like after the first. With 246 points, the Germans are just ahead of the Danes Marc Hester and Jesper Mørkøv (237) in the overall ranking of the Six Day Berlin. Last year's Dutch winner Wim Stroetinga is also currently on the podium with his Belgian partner Robbe Ghys (234). The five teams in the clear round complete the Poles Wojciech Pszczolarski and Daniel Staniszewski (220) and the Austrians Andreas Graf and Andreas Müller (206). The decisive factor for the renewed change at the top was above all the grandiose final sprint of the Germans. Reinhardt won the second Derny run and together with Kluge he was also the most successful in the second hunt at the end of Saturday.
🎆 FIREWORKS to finish! 🎆
