Löwenbräu Sech Tage Rennen Munich




The Löwenbräu Sech Tage Rennen Munich takes place at the world famous Olympiahalle stadium in Germany from the 8th to the 13th of November 2007

Local favourites Erik Zabel and Leif Lampater will be looking to avenge their defeat in last week's Dortmund 6D when World Madison Champions Bruno Risi and Franco Marvulli took the victory

Bruno Risi and Franco Marvulli have followed up their victory in the Dortmund 6D by claiming overall victory in the Löwenbräu Sech Tage Rennen Munich, beating local favourites Erik Zabel and Leif Lampater by a healthy margin of twenty-four points

However Zabel/Lampater did not go down without a fight, as with 8km (40 laps) remaining they managed to gain half a lap on the bunch, but the World Madison Champions Risi/Marvulli chased them down and they were unable to gain the lap

The final day also saw the Grenoble 6D winner's Alex Rasmussen and Michael Mørkøv beat Marty Nothstein's 200m Lap Record, which previously stood at 10.22s until Rasmussen/Mørkøv recorded a time of 10.18 seconds

After four nights of racing at the Löwenbräu Sech Tage Rennen Munich Milram's Erik Zabel and his team-mate Leif Lampater are still leading the overall competition with 205pts and a lap on second placed Bruno Risi and Franco Marvulli.

It was a disasterous night for yesterday's stars Robert Slippens and Danny Stam as they scored only 22pts and lost a lap on both the leaders and saw Risi/Marvulli move onto the same lap as them

Christian Grassmann and Andreas Kappes are again back in the race after Grassmann crashed on Friday evening

It was a dramatic day in the UIV Talents Cup as yesterday's third placed team of Pim Ligthart and Jef Vermeulen took the victory on the night and consequently also took the overall title.

However it was also a good night for the Netherlands' Robert Slippens and Danny Stam who also took a lap on Risi/Marvulli and moved onto the same lap as the leaders.

In Day Two of the UIV Talents Cup the Austrian team of Georg Tazreiter and Andreas Graf took the victory ahead of Ligthart and Vermeulen. The top four teams are on the same lap with Tazreiter/Graf and Bailly/Baumgartner equal overall leaders on 45pts
