So we have the following through so far

 

Current GP

Vaculik, Iversen , Zagar

Past GP

Cook, Ljung, Harris

New ones

Lambert, Aspgren,Thomson,Bellego, Mikklleson, Fricke.

German qualifyers

???

Bjerre , Smolinski(Past)

Millik,Sundstroem,Przedpelsi,Bech, wright (new ones)

Cant see anyone else doing anything.

 

What do people want next season?

3 current ones to qualifer

Any past GP riders

Or brand new faces

The best three riders who will enhance the GP series next season is who I want to see. Not someone who flukes a top 3 place in the final and who will be an embarrassment when it comes to the GP's next year and there's certainly a few names in there who have a history of that too!!....(sadly, two of them are British!!)

Lambert surely has a chance of top 8 as well. Can't see a situation where he doesn't race almost all, if not all, of the GP's  (barring him getting injured himself that is)

My 3 for today are Kenny Bjerre, Vaclav Millik and Smolinksi will get through on home shale with Pavlic going through wherever he finishes

Can anybody explain what the deal is with Pavlic, and why he's expected to get a wildcard to the final anyway?

Because the challenge final is in Gorican - so Croatia are assured of a place in the field.

I see - thanks for that.

A little bit of a joke if he flops today and then turns up at the final and walks into the GP series.

rubbish happens. Harris has been knocked out, got back into the Challenge and qualified in previous years I think

How do you 'fluke' a top 3 place in the final? Surely you must 'fluke' your way through the other qualifying rounds as well. That's a lot of fluking.

If riders can't beat those you deem to be an 'embarrassment' then they don't deserve to qualify anyway.

Smoli looks to be safe now, given his opponents in ht 20, surely

After 4 rides.

1 Martin Smolinski - 3 - 3 - 3 - 3  = 12
2 Aleksandr Lokoksiev - 3 - 1 - 3 - 3  = 10
3 Kenneth Bjerre - 3 - 3 - 2 - 2  = 10
4 Paweł Przedpełski - 3 - 3 - 3 - 0  = 9
5 Timo Lahti - 2 - 3 - 1 - 3  = 9
6 Jurica Pavlic - 1 - 2 - 2 - 3  = 8
7 Linus Sundstroem - 2 - 2 - 2 - 2  = 8

Milik & Wright no longer in contention, both failed to score in their fourth rides.

Edit, sorry Milik finished 3rd in his 4th ride, but still not in contention despite a rather easy looking heat 17.

Przedpełski & Pavlic?  But he only needs 3rd to tie for top spot.

Heat 19 will decide allot.  Expect Bjerre to win heat 18 comfortably.

Feel really sorry for Timo Lahti missing out because of the wildcard rule.

Could have been worse, he could have been drawn at Glasgow.  The quality of that field was in my opinion far higher than the others.
