- 01 hours 46. With Lasse Norman Hansen I had an Olympic champion as a substitute after the fall of Jan Willem van Schip. Things went great. We won the chase and are in the lead. Jan Willem fell hard on his head and as a precaution he did not drive again tonight. Hopefully he can ride the bike again on Wednesday. . Yuri Hawk.

- Hours 00 33. The occasional duo of Hansen and Ha-Intisar. Maybe Hansen and Havik should retrain to become a permanent couple for this six-day event? They took a run at the competition and Havik scored bonus points in the final race! And also the end of the first day of the six days. Havik and Van Schip will also end the evening as leaders for these six days. He is followed by crowd favorites De Vylder/Ghys and Van den Bossche/Hesters in second and third. Now: Go to bed and count the sheep. (For riders anyway 😏).
