They have the same reputation over here. But on the other hand the stuff they sell is usually the same as next door yet cheaper. And they are putting money in to speedway. So thank you Bauhaus!

Utter guff waste of time tournament to massage a few corporate ego’s. 

Pointless event where fans have zero affinity to any team. Would be meaningful if club or country.  As it stands, unless you are an employee, who cares?

Of course,the competition has been snookered by BSI and the FIM now.When it was an international team tournament it was interesting,but obviously got up BSI's nose.Since turning into some strange firms event it has lost a lot of interest and I expect now BSI have moved into the pairs territory there is even less point in the thing.Some speedway fans on the fringe will still lap up anything thoughB)

Good to have a TV meeting so early in the season.  I will enjoy the racing.

Always a question mark against those.The British league has never had better coverage on tv than in the last decade,but what has it dome?The state of British speedway has continually dropped over that same period.As for sponsorship,there is also a question mark as to what extent that helps,and to what amount is pumped into the sport.I kind of have the feeling that this sponsorship is on the level that McDonalds sponsored Tobi Kroner or Robert Barth....i.e if you asked at McDonalds HQ about the sponsorship nobody would have a Scooby doo what you were talking about

For whom? For a private promoter and maybe 18 riders going through the motions in a utterly pointless event?
