Speedway comes across as joke when somebody gets double points for actually doing nothing

I don't think Lynch was wrong at all to put Bjerre in against Morris. Don't give up a guaranteed two pts and potentially three. As for trying to avoid a tac.. seriously, if he can't rely on his No 1 to beat Musielak then....

You might think that but others including the ref didn`t

but you're suggesting the rule reads as...

 

 

"Where a heat is stopped, the Referee shall disqualify the rider,

-who in his/her opinion is the primary cause of the stoppage

-has indulged in foul

-unfair

-dangerous or reckless conduct thats jeopardised the fair chance of an opponent"

 

That's just stupid and makes no sense. Clearly all the clauses are linked.

Why did Musielek get double points when he beat no Leicester rider?

 

18.14.3 The TR rider starts from the Starting Gate and Race points scored are doubled provided s/he finishes ahead of an Opponent. NB a non-finisher is an Opponent

 

I would have said Newman was a non-starter and not a non-finisher

I would certainly say the track shape is better.

3 races to go and this has already been a decent night of speedway as far as I'm concerned, yes it's been patchy but on the whole it's been good entertainment.

 

Edit, 2 to go and it's up for grabs, can't grumble at that.

Poor Leicester, they don't deserve to lose this but ran out of riders.

 

Advantage Swindon.

Would be nice to see Riss get a win and put that crash behind him.
