Paul Fietzke from Cottbus won the silver medal in the junior category.
Behind the Danish solo winner Albert Philipsen, the 17-year-old won the sprint for second place against the Norwegian Felix Orn-Kristoff. Last year, Fietzke's compatriot Emil Herzog even won gold at the World Championships in Australia.
The highlight of the World Championships is the men's race over 271.1 kilometres on Sunday.
