Leif Lampater and Roger Kluge took first blood on evening 1 of the Berlin Six day series, but there is very little separating the top six teams.
The duo lead perennial six day racers Iljo Keisse and Kenny de Ketele by eight points, with defending champions Leigh Howard and Cameron Meyer 14 down.
The madison was the most exciting contest of the evening with Lampater and Kluge banking the key points to give them the early lead.
