Last gasp win for McGrory and Gilmore

Scott McGrory and Matthew Gilmore have pulled off an incredible last minute win on the final night of the 20th Six Days of Stuttgart. Despite being a lap down on the leading three teams coming into the night, McGrory and Gilmore had enough points to remain in contention. They took two laps out of Martinello/Villa and Risi/Betschart and one out of Beikirch/Kappes (the leaders coming into the final night). In the final hour of racing, McGrory/Gilmore overtook the Germans and finished in front by just 6 points
