And a least by being there you didn't have to put up with Sir Screamalot (formerly known as Sir Shoutalot)

You'd think he'd never ever seen a rider pass others around the outside before, the way he screamed when Woffinden made such a move

Is he still the PR man for him? that would account for it!!

you didn't say 1 person though did you  you didn't aim it at 1 individual 

you said even the people in the pauper pit the smelly people 

obviously now you are having a personal joke with a friend but you have still labelled all in that section the same 

and its still on here that you called them smelly poor people 

you think you were having a joke 

how many sitting in them seats will know you didn't aim your comments at them 

 

Is this the room for an argument?

Depends on how many times it's rained.

Firstly, good to see that Doyle appears to be ok. Well done to Zmarzlik on the win but Woffinden looks guarenteed for the title now as long as he stays fit.

Lambert obviously didn't have a great night but was just one of those meetings where everything goes wrong, just a shame it happened to be the GP. Thought that he came across very well when interviewed on BT, to be able to stay calm in situations like that and put it behind you before the next race is a good sign. Sounds stupid given his score but I think he enhanced his reputation.

Great to see Cook doing well, he's proved he can beat riders of this quality in pressure meetings in the qualifiers so pleased to see him do it here and hopefully he can have a few more like that in the remaining GPs. Had good pace and who knows what could have happened if he hadn't crashed in his last ride, was making some excellent starts so had every chance of at least making the final. Unlucky in his first race as well, looked like the perfect start to me.

As for the ref, I can only assume he had been sampling Cardiff's pubs all morning :blink:

How quick was Lambert to see what was happening with Cook inside him and get the bike down safely to avoid Cook sliding across the track in front of him? Good to see how many riders (Hancock, Woffinden et al) were quick to go and congratulate Lambert on avoiding what could have been an extremely nasty further development.

Also quite Strange on the replays to see how Doyle’s front wheel seemed to flick inwards before he went over. You would have expected it to splay outwards after any contact- just wonder if there was any failure on the bike.

Looked like he hit a rut . don't think it was anything to do with lambert  ,

UNLIKE you to have a moan about NP:wub: Try actually going and you won't have to put up with it.

THE roof is more than a protection against the weather. A closed roof helps the atmosphere inside the stadium and means they can do so much more with the lighting and special effects, etc. In my view the perfect setting for this event and a big well done to the BSI crew for all the work and effort they out in. The Race Director has very little to do on this occasion ... Olsen is there for the track (and hats off to him too) and apart from getting the riders onto the track for each race the RD is almost a by-stander. The riders are well versed in getting to the starting grid as and when required.

Thoroughly enjoyed last nights GP, it came over well on tv and was enhanced by the Tatum & Pearson commentary. Meeting had everything, good races, bit controversy and the Brits did well. Congratulations to Bartosz Zmarslik on his win but Tai Woffinden must be delighted this morning looking at the leader board, Freddie Lindgren needs to get back to his early season form if he is to get his challenge back on track.

Nige and Kelvin were brilliant yesterday. They have an excellent rapport, no awkwardness or hesitation and are funny.

Far superior to all the stilted, cliched, pseudo-insightful and just plain dull commentaries in the football World Cup.
