Think the other team win as the points are 4,3,2,0 so it would be a 4-5 result

Has Berntzon been officially confirmed to ride for Sweden today, or is this just a rumour?

Why could Brennan not replace Lambert when he was excluded for two minutes?

NC+ reported Sweden is one man team tonight. PHB only.

I’m not entirely sure of the logic but that’s what the rules state - no replacement allowed!

The other team,which has been said many times.It has been like that for several years now.Poland and GB have been top scorers overall before and lost out in the final heat to lose out on winning it.

GB did but didn't the rules change after that? Poland were 5-1'd by Russia wasn't a split heat.

And this clearly shows how important the SON is to the riders this year, some just cannot be bothered and some of the Federations just let it happen.

Very Amateurish.

It could be that the reserve rides so well (he has to have at least one race) that it is planned for a rider not doing too well to deliberately tape break to get the reserve in. Sort of Cheating the system.

But if he could be brought in anyway whats the difference?

No. That makes no sense at all.

The U21 guy could come in to any race without needing to 'cheat' at all.

Surely Ed, the logic should be to give the younger riders more experience.
