Germany, November 4 - 9, 1999

Night 6 - November 9th

With just a little more than half an hour left of the 36th six days of Munich, Martinello and Kappes were a lap behind Risi and Betschart. Then they put in the "grand attack" and not only took a lap to get even with the Swiss, but also gained another lap immediately, a so called doublet. The rest of the night was a mere 20 minutes transport.

The Swiss pair became second only eight points ahead of Bartko and McGrory. This was Silvio Martinello's first victory in Munich and Kappes' third.
