Slippens/Stam take over

At the end of the second night of the Ghent Six, Dutch pairing Robert Slippens/Danny Stam assumed the position at the top of the leaderboard ahead of Andreas Kappes/Andreas Beikirch and (1 lap down) Franco Marvulli/Alexandre Aeschbach.

Slippens and Stam continued to build on their points total on night two, accumlating 107 points after performing well in the two time trials and finishing third in the first madison. Last night's leaders Scott McGrory/Robert Sassone slipped to fifth overall after losing a lap to Slippens/Stam in the first madison.

In the U23 Six Days of the Future, Danish pair Michael Larsen/Michael Berling (Den) kept their one lap advantage over Belgians John Van Den Abeele/Kenny De Ketele and Swiss Ralph Zimmerman/Olivier Mattmann, who are both on 39 points.
