The Etixx – Quick-Step rider and his teammate Yoeri Havik stay upbeat about their chances of winning the 34th running of the Six Days of Rotterdam.

It was an up-and-down evening for Niki Terpstra and Yoeri Havik at the Six Days of Rotterdam: on one hand, they managed to grab 30 more points in the general classification, but on the other they lost a lap and because of that have slipped to sixth in the rankings. Despite this, Niki Terpstra – three-time winner of the race between 2013 and 2015 – is confident that he and his teammate can turn the tables around: "It wasn't our best evening out there, we are aware of that, but we still remain composed and optimistic. There are two more days to go and plenty of races to make up some of the ground we lost tonight. It ain't over until it's over."
