I got splinters in my fingers scratching my head over that one. Meeting overall wasn’t too bad, impressed with Mickelsons meeting. How old is he - 24?    What’s happened to Milik this year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes - and I seem to recall he as already ridden in the European Championship as an ACU nominee. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_Speedway_European_Championship_qualification Edited August 11, 2019 by arnieg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col 849 Posted August 11, 2019 Just watched meeting from Vojen's much better meeting than I expect from that track! Heats 5-8 & 17 to the end produced some great racing. Lebedevs & MJJ were the entertainers in chief. I do wish a Premiership team would persuade the Latvian to do a full season here. Horrible incident that saw Lindback injured, how Kildemande wasn't excluded I do not know. Jacobsen could surely have done better to avoid the Swede. Dave Rowe kept saying the final round was in Gorzow? I thought it was in Katowice? Haven't looked at the overall standings after this yet, but imagine it's wide open with Madsen missing the meeting & Laguta failing to make the top 6.

The only thing that persuades riders these days is money, something speedway clubs in Britiain don't have much of. I saw Lebedevs at Berwick a few year ago in the World U21 finals. Certainly livened the meeting up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is that the only remaining venue left that hosted a World final that still has a speedway track? Seen standings. Looks like shoot out between Pedersen & Laguta. Michelson 3 behind, big ask to make that up in a single meeting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
