Homeboys take Copenhagen Six

Danish riders Alex Rasmussen and Michael Mørkøv won the Copenhagen Six Days by snatching the lead from Dutch riders Danny Stam and Peter Schep in the final night. Rasmussen/Mørkøv were equal on laps in the end with Stam/Schep, but had amassed almost 100 more points (254 versus 158). The lap gain came only thanks to the rule of lap gains every 100 points.

The Danes started the night with 199 points, so made up the lap almost immediately. Despite strong efforts from the Dutch pair, this was enough for Rasmussen/Mørkøv to win the event.
