Now it&#8217;s time for revenge.<\/strong> With crowd favorite <strong>Nils Politt<\/strong>, Havik has a strong partner at his side. The Cologne native is entering the Bremen Oval for the third time and has already recorded one victory. Politt comes to Bremen as the Tour de France team winner. At the famous Tour of France, he also made a name for himself as a helper to teammate and overall winner <strong>Tadej Poga\u010dar.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The sporting director <strong>Erik Weispfennig<\/strong> is delighted to be able to sign World Tour rider <strong>Simone Consonni<\/strong> for the 58th edition of the Antenne Schlager Sixdays Bremen. The 30-year-old is an Olympic, World and European champion. Most recently he won silver and bronze at the Olympics in Paris. He will be competing alongside fellow countryman <strong>Michele Scartezzini<\/strong>. Scartezzini was a three-time Italian champion in 2023 and, together with Consonni, was second in the European Championships in the Madison.<\/p>\n<p>The duo <strong>Matias Malmberg<\/strong> and <strong>Moritz Augenstein<\/strong> could cause a surprise this year. Malmberg is considered brave, competitive and focused &#8211; Augenstein is the reigning German champion in points races, scratch and two-man team races (with <strong>Moritz Malcharek<\/strong>).<\/p>\n<p>This four-day title fight will not be an easy one, as last year&#8217;s winner <strong>Roger Kluge<\/strong> knows: &#8220;Of course Theo and I want to defend our title, but that&#8217;s easy to say. The competition is tough. In any case, we want to have a say in the overall victory and then we&#8217;ll see where it ends up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Sixdays Bremen will take place from Friday to Monday, January 10th to 13th, 2025, in the \u00d6VB Arena and the adjacent halls.
