He couldn’t buy a point away from home up to that point but hitting the front is all that’s required at Poole sadly. I could probably get a result if I started well enough. The sheer frustration for Nico and Richie due to not being able to pass on the Poole track led to the unfortunate incident. Two points for Poole though and that’s all that matters down there. What total rubbish and by the way we got 3 points! Edited June 28, 2019 by foreverblue 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m guessing was announced due to halt in proceedings, just seen it was already agreed before which I’d assume then means it was a special reason. So I’m guessing again that this isn’t the usual deadline as others have pointed out Poole have ridden longer than that. 1 hour ago, cityrebel said: Some curfews are often used to suit the promoters. I had two dubious ones last season. A 10pm at Eastbourne, one meeting this year has already hit the 10.40 mark. A 10.15 at Rye House, when the previous meeting went on an hour later. At least at Kent everyone knows it's 8.30. I’d agree I’m sure there is a maximum curfew at most tracks. Wolves I know have gone past 11 with some of the British finals.

GAH 409 Posted June 28, 2019 2 hours ago, MMX Events said: It was the Referee’s decision to impose a 10.15pm deadline. It was discussed and agreed with both teams and the promotion before the paramedic had even begun his return journey. had the paramedic not returned within any reasonable time to allow for any more racing before that deadline it was agreed we would call a halt. The principle consideration by all concerned was for the fans .... (not withstanding the injured riders’ welfare) why were you informed personally ?????????????? or were you in pits to hear this ????????????? NO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NO The 10.15 curfew was announced before the racing restarted when both teams were 24 points each not before the meeting so both teams had equal opportunity to win the meeting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
