European U 23 team Championships qualifying round Pardubice Saturday 20th April

my only guess is lack of depth, not knowing if any of our GP riders could do it or not -
European U 23 team Championships qualifying round Pardubice Saturday 20th April
stevehone replied to racers and royals's topic in International World of Speedway
the only main FIM event in the year is the SWC/SoN, all the others are FIMEurope and these meetings have a lot more limitations, not only financial but also on riders allowed i.e only one GP rider in teams. Some nations choose to use a GP rider, some choose to blood youngsters, others choose experience with youngsters. It's about finding the balance and of course riders that want to be involved. Pulling on a national racejacket isn't always the same now as it was in the past, sometimes it comes down to finances and availability. I can assure you though that GB do take things incredibly seriously and are constantly working to try to progress and push riders that want to be involved and there will certainly be more medals earned this season. -
i wonder if it's more of a way to guarantee all riders are present as practice for Cardiff & Warsaw is on the Friday

European U 23 team Championships qualifying round Pardubice Saturday 20th April
stevehone replied to racers and royals's topic in International World of Speedway
Last year at Pardubice we had a meeting postponed and then rearranged for a 9am start, Mikkelsen and Bewley got helicopters to their Polish meetings and Adam Ellis drove but missed his sign in by minutes I believe so couldn’t ride in the meeting -
Kings Lynn vs Sheffield - Monday 22nd April
stevehone replied to SpeedwayFan91's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Buster used to get much more detailed forecasts from RAF Marham, so maybe they’re expecting some more localised issues. But if there’s been cars on an already wet track it certainly doesn’t help -

Bednar looks to be one of the best coming out of the Czech Republic, worth keeping an eye on for sure -

Terrible last 4 heats, and Brennan missed his last ride to get his helicopter -
European U 23 team Championships qualifying round Pardubice Saturday 20th April
stevehone replied to racers and royals's topic in International World of Speedway
As does Tom Brennan. weather here today has been really up and down, torrential rain, then warm and sunny, but far too much of the wet stuff for the track. it was tipping it down again at start time so a good call really. time will tell if the track is any better in the morning, I’m not particularly confident. expect Kvech at reserve to have all his rides early in case the meeting doesn’t go the distance so going to make it even tougher for GB -

Birmingham v Leicester 15th April 2024
stevehone replied to StephenMiller's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I think you’ve mentioned a few times now on here that Birmingham should pull out the league .. that won’t do the sport any good will it, or having lost Peterborough you don’t really care? -

King's Lynn v Birmingham 04/04/24
stevehone replied to Bagpuss's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
looks like a bit of rain very early morning then dry rest of the day .... -
he has Poland
-
I think people used to look at Wimbledon as being the only track that had races OVER 4 laps because of the finish line being further along than the tapes
-
i mean when the gate was on the home straight and the finish post was a bit further on .. were league meeting times taken from the finish post, but FIM meetings at the tapes?
-
was there a change in start line/finish post locations?
