f-s-p 832 Posted April 28, 2010 (edited) Is it true that Kylmakorpi is riding in Lonigo on Saturday? I have no idea. Naturally the Slovenian team manager would be my first choice of people to tell my info regarding this one... Edited April 28, 2010 by f-s-p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomazpozrl 8 Posted April 28, 2010 I have no idea. Naturally the Slovenian team manager would be my first choice of people to tell my info regarding this one... Now, now, mate, where's a fair play here? I play with open cards and tell you all the news about Slovenian team and you try to keep secrets about Finnish? Is it another of yours 'FIM doesn't want Finland in the SWC' things??? I guess I'll have to rely on Eastbourne news then. They should know if he is riding on Saturday or not.

iris123 20,958 Posted April 28, 2010 They have 25 words for Reindeer poo in Finnish,but not a single word for "fair" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f-s-p 832 Posted April 28, 2010 (edited) They have 25 words for Reindeer poo in Finnish,but not a single word for "fair" actually it's "reilu", pronounced a bit like "raylu"?????? I guess this would be a good place and time to ask if tomazpozrl is travelling with any of his photographing friends, I'd be happy to receive and publish a few pics of the meeting...

Sandie 53 Posted April 28, 2010 Weirdly, I have just directed some Americans to this thread as its the only place that the WTC meeting is being discussed and they are keen to find a source for updates. Will either Slovenia or Finland be offering an update service for their fans? It would save us a lot of money texting America from Italy via the UK!!! And Tomasz / f.s.p. , sorry, no photos as its going to be a USA win!! (please) :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sandie 53 Posted April 29, 2010 No updates from Slovenia, I'm afraid. We'll be too busy beating those Finns. Thanks Tomaz, no problem beating those Fins, but is it so important when its only for 2nd and 3rd!! GO TEAM USA!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f-s-p 832 Posted April 29, 2010 According to BSPA website Joonas is riding in Lonigo. I guess it's not up to FIM to not want us in the World Cup anymore as the Greek goddess of speedway, Spay, apparently has it in for us big time! Timo Lahti was smashed last friday, Kauko has a hand injury from tuesday, according to Anders someone tried to fence Kylmä also on tuesday... Thats speedway I guess...

f-s-p 832 Posted May 10, 2010 I hope the lad is not seriously injured, the crash looked bad enough. When was this race/crash? Last year in July. He was taken to a hospital with a suspected broken thigh but was walking the week after again and riding in a few weeks. The last time I spoke to him about this was almost two months after and no xrays were taken by then. But like I said, he was back on the bike only a few weeks after. He had done that same move on the season (-09)opener to another guy who gave room, but this time it did not happen... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Keskinen was very impressive during the qualifiers and lead after 20 heats. There were a few excellent heats of racing and they all involded Rene Lehtinen. He had a good battle with Autio, Keskinen and Teemu Lahti but lost them all. Lahti had a slow start but started to get on the pace later on. After a good start to the final it looked like he was satisfied with his position after almost throwing it away by try too far from the outside. Pasi Pulliainen (-94 Finnish U21 champion) took an easy win from his first race after a 13 year absence from speedway racing but fell on the first lap of his second and wrecked his bike to a degree that he withdrew himself. His 2nd bike was on it's way to Poland to help Kalle Katajisto's ambitions in the U21 qualis. Pictures from the meeting have been sent to speedwaysuomi.com and hopefully they'll be online during the weekend. Edited May 14, 2010 by f-s-p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
