Night 4 - November 7th

There are still three pairs involved in the fight for victory in Munich. Just six minutes from the end of the one hour chase, Bartko and McGrory managed to win a lap to stay on par with the others. Martinello and Kappes won the chase though, and the German-Australian duo are so far behind on points that they probably must gain another lap to win the whole race.

Italians Baffi and Collinelli are definitely hooked off in fourth, trailing four laps and are accompanied by Beikirch and Villa, with Gilmore and de Wilde another lap behind.
