Ice Racing 2013/14

Recommended Posts

 

Makharov rides for Moscow Suburbs Lukhovitsy, and quite a few people in the crowd were from there. The Kosovs are being hailed as The next big thing from Russia. The Novelty value of Twins riding in the same race had a few of the 'Togs trying to get them in the same frame whilst racing (have a look on the Saturday pics on my site). And the fact that apart from Dmitri K, who was seeded, Samara had the Wild Card AND the two reserves. They have a bit of clout at the moment.

On a personal note, I had a great time in Moscow, despite being ripped off by a Taxi Driver on my first night. Still, I'm going back next year, as I managed to get from my Hotel to the Stadium easily enough, and still managed to wire my reports and pics. I took the bare minimum of gear, so it looked like a tourist rather than a working 'tog.

Racing was great, and my pics are up on my site now http://iancharlesphotos.net/Image_Gallery/Image_Gallery.html and I made friends with fans from Togliatti and Lukhovitsy, as well as seeing some of my Russian Friends whom I generally only see in Assen.

Things to remember for next time:

1) Don't get a taxi from the airport :rofl:

2) Remember to take a spare LiOn battery for the camera and the charger (Thank you Good Shoot for the use of your charger in the press room on Sunday!)

3) Remember to take the hand warmers out of the bag for the aircraft hold and put them in the Camera Bag before going to the Stadium.

4) Find out the dates for 2015 as soon as possible :lol:

Excellent galleries Conkers. Pleased you made it there and back safe and sound. (Taxi apart)

 

Seemingly the locals love having it in Krasnogorsk and I'm sure you would agree a great cross section of age groups were in attendance. Long may it continue.

Zorn is out for 12 months at least :( Probably the end of his career as this injury also delays the start of his 2014-2015 season.

Thanks. Yes, it was a really good cross section and reminded me of when I first started to going to Speedway.

That's bad news, and means that it puts pressure on the others to try and match the Russians. Which on the evidence of the first rounds is going to be hard

According to Jouni Seppanen, Aakko withdrew after his second ride with broken ribs sustained in Krasnagorsk. Aims to be fit for Assen

Interesting article that the Amur Governmant paid 4 Million Rubles (€90,000) to transport all the riders, bikes, spares and mechanics out to Blagoveshchensk today,in two transporter planes. The return journeys will be on Monday (for those in the European Championship and Elite League) and Wednesday for the rest. It's in German so you'll need to use a translator if you can't read German

Big scoring from Mats Jarf. What a pity, he doesn't appear to have the budget to compete in the GP Series.

The Scoring System was 16 for first in the A Final down to 1 for last in the D Final. After two days the Final scores were added up, and in the case of a tie outside the top 3, heat scores decided positions.If there had been a tie in any of the Top 3 positions, it would have been decided by run offs. Seems FIM-Europe like to make things easy.
