DutchGrasstrack 804 Posted May 19, 2012 (edited) Well the runoff for the first place was kinda strange... Pawlicki hit Worrall and Worrall fell... Pawlicki thought it would be red flag situation and he returned back to the 'paddock gate' but it wasn't so he rode the 4 laps just to complete the runoff. Should have been a restart... Anyway, it was a very good meeting. Never seen such a good meeting in Holland before.

greyhoundp 990 Posted May 20, 2012 it was sad to see some of the british Under 21 guys didnt appear in this, allegedly because there was NO financial backing from The BSPA, Joe Haines, Kyle Howarth, Jason Garrity all would have given a good showing in this, and just to be left with the guys who have most money or sponsors, is a sad indictment of British Speedway. Just a question for the BSPA where did the profits from the British Under 21 Final go ??? because i was at Monmore Green, and despite the weather there was definately a very healthy crowd, some of that money could have been used to help with transport costs at least.

Joe Haines was quoted in the Speedway Star the week after he'd won at Wolves that he wouldn't be doing the World Qualifiers as he couldn't afford it and the help from the British authorities was more or less non existent. Its been pretty obvious since Rob Lyon left the Team GB set up that the BSPA / SCB can't / won't invest in the future of the British team and that any future SWC or GP success is likely to be a very long way off. At least Mr Worrall gives us something to enthuse over, hopefully Middlo will have the good sense to get him and one or two others involved in the SWC pits for experience.

brandonbee48 1,194 Posted May 20, 2012 The usual "Google translate" apology, but it gives the gist. Regards. Alan. World Junior Speedway in Blijham Tonight (Saturday, May 19) was the first time in the history of Dutch speedway a qualification for the World Speedway U21 organized. Blijham had the honor to organize this competition. Many top riders were on the start list. Pawlicki including the brothers (and Przemyslaw Piotr) and the rapid Please Andzejs Lebedevs. Netherlands had a solid rider on the starting grid. Jeffrey Woortman was up against a lot of fast speedway talents. Lars Zandvliet and Randy Oldenziel stood reserve for the Netherlands. Before the World Cup competition was held were the first riders of the future art and theater. The 125cc class special was very well represented with 21 riders including the European (Sandro Wassermann) and the World Champion (Romano Hummel) last year. The match was eventually won by Sandro Wassermann. Wassermann was already good at the start right away and could not be overtaken. The second place went to the very strong driving Dave Meijerink. Meijerink ride all year already strong matches, a highlight for the future! The third place went to Romano Hummel. Hummel was unbeaten in the heats. Mike van der Noordaa was there again after his nasty wrist fracture during a game in Vledderveen. Van der Noordaa placed himself with 11 points for the B final but unfortunately went bottom up, luckily it went well. At 7 o'clock in the evening were the drivers for the World Cup qualifier on to the public. The evening was supposed to start with a minute's silence to remember the deaths of Lee Richardson last Sunday. Unfortunately, this was not the case. That the Netherlands is not really minded speedway is clear, but that in a World Cup match Heuze no minute can silently is downright disrespectful ... The match after 20 heats were both Przemyslaw Pawlicki and Richie Worrall on 14 points. Because no final was held had a runoff be driven. Both drivers got together in turn one and crashed Worrall. Pawlicki assumed that this "red" and was returned to the entrance of the paddock, but there was no great surprise given red and had Pawlicki still have 4 rounds spreading. A strange end of the evening. Ritichie Worrall was in second place. Worrall drove a strong race with a very challenging speedway style. Ritchie is not the only Worrall in the speedway world. His twin brother, Steven, also riding speedway tonight and had also occurred during an U21 World Cup qualification. Steven was Gorican (Croatia) ninth. Third place went to the younger brother of Przemyslaw, Piotr. Piotr had a bad first heat and scored a third place. In his next heat he had told his brother, both of Poland had clearly agreed that Piotr was going to win and this was also evident when the door is left open and Przemyslaw Piotr so the heat could win. The first eight riders go through to the semi finals in Terenzano or Chervonograd. The ninth rider reserve one of these contests. For this ninth spot to determine needed a runoff be held between Sean Mason and Marcel Helfer. Mason, who reserve stood at the Speedway GP in Auckland, was well in the lead until the last lap and he crashed. This was so Helfer ninth. Jeffrey Woortman rode a strong race and eventually became 11th with 5 points. Jeffrey wirst three thirds places, a last and a second place to score. Lars Zandvliet once came into action and scored a point. Randy Oldenziel did not play as a reserve. U21 World Cup Qualifying: 1. Przemlyslaw Pawlicki POL (3,2,3,3,3) 14 3 2.

Why do you assume it has anything to do with the BSPA? They seem to get blamed for everything! There is backing, some backing. Not huge amounts, but it helps. And it comes from the SCB (Speedway Control Bureau, not the forum member, FYI!) The problem is not so much that, but the ridiculous amounts of licences and fees that you need to compete in FIM events. Even when you have the various licences, and there are numerous, you still need to pay the one-meeting race fee, or whatever they call it, which is £135. The guys who were left to do with it were the guys who were either prepared to, or wanted to do it. It was nothing to do with money or sponsors. Oh, and Garrity didn't go, because from what I can tell, it was based on the Under 21 Final results, and he was below the 4 riders who did go. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
