The second evening of the Bremen Six Days saw a new team take the lead as things are looking very close at the top of the overall classification. The winners from 2015, German Marcel Kalz and Dane Alex Rasmussen, took over from Grasmann/de Ketele courtesy of a bonus lap. Neither of the two teams was able to claim a win in the two Madison events on Friday, though, which only emphasizes how closely fought this Six Days race promises to be.
Mora and Havik won the big Madison and look certain to gain a bonus lap on Saturday. The same promising prospect seems to await Mørkøv and Kneisky. However, Grasmann and de Ketele can look forward to doing the same and thus take sole command of the race.
An eventful Saturday evening lies in wait as the race crosses the midway mark.
