No more than twenty-four hours after being toppled by Risi and Betschart, Scott McGrory and Matt Gilmore retook the lead at the end of the fourth night of racing in Holland. After winning the last one of the two Madison races of the night, the Belgian-Aussie pair moved back into the top spot, and put one lap into all of their main rivals.
Local favorites Robert Slippens and Danny Stam took the first Madison, and moved up one place into second overall, whereas overnight leaders Risi and Betschart dropped to third. In other words, the situation of the top three places is the same it was 48 hours before. American Marty Nothstein and Dutch partner Max van Heeswijk lost one position in the GC, while Britain’s Wiggins and Hayles lost two, and are currently sitting in 10th place.
