After the first evening, Kluge/Reinhardt were still in second place overall. After losing some ground at the start of the second evening of competition, the duo were unstoppable from the moment they won the derny race. Kluge/Reinhardt were also ahead in the elimination race and went into the final chase on equal terms with their main rivals Elia Viviani/Michele Scartezzini and Yoeri Havik/Philip Heijnen.
Mit einer Energieleistung konnten sich Kluge/Reinhardt dort nach Punkten durchsetzen und zum dritten Mal nach 2019 und 2023 den Gesamtsieg mit 176 Punkten vor Havik/Heijnen (167) und Viviani/Scartezzini (163) holen. "Ich bin froh, dass wir es nochmal geschafft haben. Das war einmalig. Wir sind auf einer Euphorie-Welle der Fans geschwommen - das hat so gepusht. Diesen Abend wird Theo sicher nicht vergessen", freute sich Kluge nach der Zieldurchfahrt. Reinhardt war kurz zuvor von seinen Rennfahrerkollegen und Fans feierlich in den Radsport-Ruhestand verabschiedet worden. "So einen Abschied kann man sich nicht kaufen. Wahnsinn. Danke Berlin", freute sich Reinhardt, bei dem auch ein paar Tränen der Rührung flossen.
The third REMBE® rad-net rider in the race, Felix Groß, finished tenth with Dutch rider Roy Eefting.
Theo Reinhardt has been part of the REMBE® rad-net team since 2013 - longer than any other rider. During this time, he has become world champion twice and European champion three times in the two-man team event, as well as winning numerous other international medals and national titles. In future, he would like to pass on his experience as a coach. "I want to help other athletes to experience exactly that!"
"Theo was with us for twelve years, which is an exceptionally long time. That also shows that we knew what we had in common. He was a constant and once rightly described himself as the team's mascot. We celebrated many great successes together and we thank him for his professional collaboration. We wish Theo all the best for the rest of his life and his second career," says Managing Director Ulrich Müller.
