Stuttgart Six-Day - Night Five

Crockett, If Marty is losing laps but gaining points to get the laps back isnt it somewhat of a
wash? He cant be doing that bad to be only 3 laps down. I see teams like Slippens/Stam and Lehmann
all over 8laps down. Marty is not losing that many laps.

The leading positions are unchanged and the German Andreas Kappes-Andreas

Beikirch-Gerd Dörich Trio look like avenging their narrow Bremen defeat last week with a narrow win
here in Stuttgart as they increased their slight lead from four points to nine overnight over the
Bruno Risi-Kurt Betschart-Franco Marvulli Alpen Express with both teams on the Zero Lap.

Quoted message said:

Who will take third spot will depend upon the Mixed Anglophone Trio,

[Jean-Pierre Van Zijl (Zaf)-Matthew Gilmore (Bel)-Marty Nothstein (Usa)], not losing another lap
which is something Nothstein has done frequently in the last three events he has ridden as he seems
to value personal victory in the individual events more highly than contributing to the overall
team effort.

Quoted message said:

The Guido Fulst-Thorsten Rund (Ger)-Alexander Aeschbach (Swi) Trio,

currently in fourth spot, on the other hand can grab third place simply by getting the bonus lap at
300 points and failing that, by gaining a lap on the Mixed Van Zijl squad.

Yeah what happened there, Slippens/Stam taking it easy for this 6-day, or De Neef not a lucky
addition to the couple?

It takes a hundred points to gain back a lap. If you lose a lap a night you will be very hard
pressed to make it up through individual events.
