01h39. We had a rough start tonight. We weren’t fully awake yet. Drank too little coffee. No, we made small tactical mistakes. It was all a bit disappointing, but we recovered well. We were stimulated and that’s all we need to get sparks. Robbe Ghys.

01h20. Team race (2): podium teams in the rear. The curtain falls on this second evening with the last pairing race. We have Dutch winners again, but not the world champions. Vincent Hoppezak and Philip Heijnen fill their pockets and prove that they are not just participating in this in Ghent. The three top teams for the podium were forced to do a lap and did not play for the win. In the stand, Lindsay De Vylder and Robbe Ghys take over command. They are in the same round as Fabio Van den Bossche/Jules Hesters and Yoeri Havik/Jan-Willem van Schip, but count more points. Please note: the Dutch world champions have 99 points and are therefore within 1 point of a bonus round. So they are virtually in control. .
