Newman shouldn't have ridden without goggles. That was his choice, the rule was broken, so he should be disqualified with his 2pts taken away. Heat becomes 3-3. That is not anti Poole but is pro the rules being adhered to. Same for both teams.

RIders don't risk their lives to only give us entertainment. They take risks that they are happy to accept because they enjoy racing, riding a bike and to earn a decent living doing something they enoy..

If he is that concerned about his dad, mental state all over the place, why doesn't he fly home ? That is the bit that I don't understand. Good luck to all riders and hope it will be good TV.

Well said Bee. The information loaded is always informative. As for the racing. Tai is riding a very quick bike. I'm sure its legal before anyone thinks that is a dig but it is super fast and so much quicker than the rest. Riders like Pedersen and Emil cannot get close..

I've never seen the Spanish football team sing the Spanish anthem and they still won a Football World Cup. It means nothing if you dont sing along.

Your the one talking rubbish as I'm not a Harris hater, the opposite in fact. My point was to try to illustrate the stupidity of the rule. Riders (and that would be all of them) know if they get a nudge from a quicker rider passing on the inside they can slip off the bike knowing they will get a re-run. The likely outcome being an exclsuion for the rider who gave the nudge. Any rider can leave their left leg hanging out to get it taken away. It's a con but referee's take the bait most of the time. Some riders do it more than others.

Why the fuss about Tai not singing the anthem. That is ridiculous. Who cares. Its what he does on the bike that matters.

Tonight showed how stupid the rules are. In the semi Bomber held his line, got a nudge and fell off. Kildermand out. If Bomber had moved wider and let Kildemand to go past him then nothing would have happened. Refs need to be wiser. Exclude the rider who is slower and playing the system..

Harris allowed him through by coming off the white line.

Harris should have won Ht1 and Doyle nearly caused a crash.as normal

Understand the commercial business issues but it's unlikely we would get to 8 Poles and 7 Danes. In the near future Sweden is the only problem country but Lindback can maybe fill that void. For commercial reasons you should want the strongest 15 + a strong wild card who can add to the racing. I don't care if he is from the home country as I want proper racing. Not someone on a push bike as in Slovenia, Prague and Latvia. The best riders fill seats not someone like THJ who is limited at world level. How many bums on seats would he sell in Sweden. Few if any.

I bet you wear out your .......................... button.

It does annoy that we have people saying too many Poles or Danes which rules out a rider. Pick the best 15 and a competitive wild card. Not kids but a proper wild card who can win races. If this wild card comes from outside the host country so what. In Slovenia the wild card and track reserves were rubbish. Would ticket holders and TV have prefered Emil or Laguta or Vaculik to be given a go. No disrepect but Craig Cook wont put bums on seats at Cardiff but Emil would. It's the world championship not a quota system. Wishfull thinking !

I hope Poole play it straight, North rides and its a fair final over two well contested legs on good tracks. Hope Belle Vue win as I love the underdog.

A team of gaters but you keep Harris ? Strange one.

FORE

he has been awful and should be ashamed of his two leg performance. NO team meeting from Rossiter. Maybe he has lost the dressing room and they can't be bothered listening..

That is right. Nice to see young lads get a chance but we want proper racing not a lad riding a lawn mower who is tailed off as in Slovenia.

Ridiculous rule where a rider goes through the tapes to get excluded but the team manager can then bring in a new rider. Team not punished. Also allows manipulation when needed. Havvy will have a hard job defending that gate on behalf of Sargeant. He must be a bit dense to continually drop the clutch before the tapes go up..

Good ride from North in Heat 3. Sorry, Kennett.

Heat 1. The ref giving 4 starts to ensure Poole get away properly. No one touched Holder when he fell off. Why was the race stopped when Holder decided the tapes went up too soon and he sat still.

Where are the rounds for the SEC in 2015. anyone know or when they will be announced.

Poole are stretching the rules as far as they will go with North being rested. Shame to hear his dad is sick but surely if it was badly hurt he would be on a plane ride home to visit and not playing golf with Davy Watt as said by the Cov promotion. Rules in this sport need tightening up to stop abuse.

How much would the stadium cost to buy Ghost ? Any plans to redevlop the stadium. Its a great track and should get some big meetings.
