 You can only use FIM homologated tires in FIM meetings and Anlas tire is homologated. IT HAS TO BE.

I agree with your thinking.

Anlas tyres should not be banned. Anlas have bene offering tyres for a long time and not many riders have opted for them.

Artem Laguta and Magic's mechanical team have obviously spotted an advantage. 

Other riders should have been paying attention.

I wasn't thinking on this one. I was quoting the rulebook.

Every heat to be important towards the principale goal, the title. Like it was last l'an.

Someone will always want to win on the nuit. A rider not wanting to win don't mean the meeting won't be tout good. If you really want to make chaque rider wanting to win every GP, double the winners prize money. The scoring was perfect, now its rubbish.

 

 

I'm not saying I like the new scoring?  You can't have want you want for this season, so embrace the new as we are stuck with it.  Let's argue about the points for next years series.  IMO last years scoring wasn't perfect, it was better but to me the final should be 5,3,2,1 if they all finish. Riders should get a point for getting to the final and the winner should be rewarded. 3,2,1,0 makes it just another race.

Zmarzlik seems bitter that Laguta is faster.

When Zmarzlik was faster than everyone last year, everything was ok.

not only Zmarzlik it seems, 10 riders can't use them

Then it’s their fault. They had the choice before the series started. If the Turkish tyre is better, they 5hit out. They had the choice.

That was a great opening heat. Should have been called back mind. Massive roller from Vaculik. Unfair on Madsen.

Its just another race, which is good, but you had to be in the top 4 to get the chance to ride that "just another race". It was perfect, every heat counts and the better you rode, the more chances you had to score points.

Exactly. It openly available, why not have it in stock at the back of your van.

allegedly they signed 2-year sponsor deals with their tyre provider and they can't use others

Evening all.

Fricke is going to regret quitting British racing if the line-ups stay the same for 2021

No. They can’t change or they lose their sponsorship. Nothing to stop them changing. They always have the choice. Seems excuses from Zmarzlik.
