Doyle has neck and chest injuries after his crash. Reported on http://www.speedwaygp.com/news/article/4560/doyle-stable-after-crash Hope they are not too serious.

To miss just one GP with injury is remarkable. He's stayed injury free with his own brand / style of racing and its given him a long career. Plus being a excellent gater has kept him out of trouble. Compare with Chris Holder who could be finished as a GP rider after 2016 as his form is declining fast after several injuries and the mental scars of DWs crash. Hope he can turn things around but 2016 will be more competitive with a stronger top 15 than 2015.

The track was very good but it should be given the amount of indoor tracks that have now been laid. No weather worries with the roof closed so the preparation must be without any interuption or problems. The racing was good but nowhere near the quality or excitement seen at Torun. Maybe that was because most riders had nothing of real value to ride for ?

No different to when Rickardson & Crump won everything. That was boring.. Crump was excellent on commentary today.

Taken the edge of him ? He won at Torun 3 weeks ago ! The vast majority of the criticism Pedersen gets is totally out of order. He did some things in his younger days that were a bit naughty but now he is hard but fair. Plenty of the moves pulled by other riders are far worse than anything Pedersen does. Bomber needs to go to Specsavers if he didn't see Magic today. If Pedersen had pulled that move there would have been an enquiry and all sorts of rubbish being spouted. In the final Hancock did nothing wrong, just tight racing, but if Pedersen had been involved we all know who would have been to blame.

Aussie / Monster bias instead !

I'm looking forward to the Championship presentation. Nicki and Hancock on the podium having to shake hands and smile for photos. I'm sure they will be very professional but will Greg try to shake Nicki's throat instead.

Showing loyalty to Steve Boxall would be the only plus point for Len Silver. He paid the bills and can pay who he wants but if he slags off his paying supporters he will lose business.

Len Silver shooting himself in the foot twice.

What happened with Doyle ?

That is a great question. I dont know the answer but there must be a rule to cover. Andersen will be a steal on his average. Had bike problems mid season in UK but scored very well elsewhere in Europe. Had very good play off matches against Poole.

With the Euro's packed with British riders that is a wonderful idea.

Is Spittin Gary Havvy back new year ?

Apart from the season when he was on the winner's rostrum. The only Swedes who can mix it are AJ and Lindback. The other names have shown they are not up to it right now. Maybe 1 Swede in 2016 to allow Hampel to be picked ? If one only then it must be AJ as he is reliable and shown some good form recently after changing a few things in his team. Lindback could go off the rails at any time..

Don't go or don't watch. Simple.

I hope AJ gets the nod over Lindback. He has been riding well the last few GP's.

Why don't you leave then ?

Not like you to be so negative Hump

You answer a question with a negative question. But yes they do. It can be improved but plenty enjoy the sport. Try it, you might enjoy it.

Hello Hump, do you ever post anything positive about the sport ? Just checking.

Greg Hancock showed some fight in the GP and made a very tough move in Ht10 on TJH. Some very brave riding through the meeting by Pedersen and Iversen.

Agree but we are used to seeing riders in there own kevlars. Its easy to tell who is who from those instead of looking at a program to see who is wearing red. Minor point.

Nice touch but won't be able to tell who is who in a race. Bar Batchelor as he will be at the back.

Poole weren't fired up for Ht15 but a pair of goggles decided the final.

Good final. Shame the BV riders couldn't lay it down when North fell as a.re-run would have been perfect..
