I think even the wild cards have to be nominated by a federation, to be considered by the FIM for inclusion. 

Normally yes, I think covid makes it a bit different. They dont normally ask SoN nations for names either...

Lenarduzzi and Goret seem to be rather eccentric picks. There must be about 15 young Danes/Poles better than those two. Even if this has been done as one rider per country (plus second Pole as they provided last year's champ) I'd have put Pacalaj (Slovakia) above those two. 

Slightly surprised that Kotlyar is the Russian pick over Saydullin.

I imagine Chulpac will be the wild card.

And only two Poles so no Chugunov.

Goret scored well in the French league matches which were run earlier this year- could be an improving talent.

Should have looked at your U21 rating to get a better idea. But as long as Castagna has a hole in his rear there was going to be an Italian in

Jordan Palin saying on twitter that he has been selected to compete in the World U21 Final. 
Is this in place of Dan Bewley or am I misreading something?

Good well be, but since all riders were selected by FIM & associated, not 100% sure that a FMN can just change their rider, even with injury.

It is possible/probable that Poland would prefer to nominate "real Poles" for selection, rather than "flag of convenience" carpetbaggers.

Poland putting Chuganov forward would be like the ACU pushing Rory Schlein into a GP as the British representative.  

It might be official and legal, but Poland is a very proud nation, and might fight shy of making such a move.

Didn't Jason Crump get a wild card to a British GP at Hackney? Not sure who chose him though

That's right, and Gollob was the wild card the following year. There were 6 Brits in the 96 GP series and no Poles..Those were the days!

Would fancy Kubera or Lidsey for the win,any can happen on the night though.

Looking at the list definite chance of a rostrum place for a Belle Vue rider
Lidsey has had plenty of practice in Poland whilst Dan Bewley has the talent to be on the rostrum.

TV coverage has been confirmed- meeting starts at 4pm UK time. It’s live on Eurosport Poland but it’s looking very unlikely that British Eurosport will be showing it at all- live or recorded- reason French open tennis. At least there will be Polish links.
