Looks like after 2 days German Speedsters are in the lead.

If I understand correctly, they've put in 400K so far in 17:31. That
comes out to 22.8kph(14.2mph).

I think that was 200K in 8:16 on day 1 and 200K in 9:15 on day 2 for
24.2kph(15.0mph) and 21.6kph(13.4mph) respectively.

Looks like they've got some work cut out for them to hit expectations
according to this poll. The mean of the poll was 25.2kph(15.6mph).
The median and mode were 25kph(15.5mph). Will the last two days be
that much faster than the first two days?

EDIT: Those daily breakdowns are off because one day was a bit under
and another a bit over 200K (day 1 under, day 2 over) but the overall
average looks sound.

Doing my best to measure daily distances off of the elevation profile, I
came up with 198.1K for day 1 and 202.3K for day 2.

That gives 24kph for day 1, 21.9kph for day 2, and 22.86kph overall.
