Give the man some credit. As for Pearson commentating his usual shambolic performance. In that last race screaming Lingren had made a flyer when it was Lambert then shouting Team GB edging closer to a medal.. when in fact we have already secured a medal, with two rides left we cant drop out the top three now.

marko 950 Posted June 9, 2018 I’m starting to think Jason and Max don’t like each other, that old familiar thing of the Aussies don’t like each other? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Poland have riders in depth, large crowds, many super stadiums, etc, etc. I was also in Manchester SWC 2016 and that was 3 times the attendance of any race off in World Cup history without the home nation. Only GB can do this. Don't think you should talk GB down. Where are the mighty Polish fans tonight, no football friendly tonight. The reason of low attendances at all events this week is fans are not sure of the format. I'm sure with a little tweaking this format can be a success. What do BSI do, attendances haven't been good this week, do they carry on regardless and continue with SON or reinstate the SWC for next year and alternate . Feel BSI / FIM would like the SON to be the format for good with the involvement and potential win for more nations Edited June 9, 2018 by New Science Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,424 Posted June 9, 2018 (edited) Russia now looking likely winners. Both riders are looking ominous. Laguta looking better than Hancock out the starts. Emil now on it. Hope I am wrong. Edited June 9, 2018 by Steve Shovlar 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LagutaRacingFan 1,919 Posted June 9, 2018 The final has potential to be carnage. The rider who's going to be leading is going to be trying to slow the race down if his team mate is at the back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
