Seem Russia has a new star in Tarashenko, anyone know how old he is? Glad Madsen does not seem badly injured, Mikelson was a bit naughty there, but it was an all action race. Madsen did very well to win that rerun. Good track, but got a wide line everyone wanted. Tarasenko is a Laguta, Artem and Grigory are his uncles. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If so, he shouldn't have problems. Dan is due to be at Glasgow this weekend and then at Kings Lynn 2 days before the Gustrow round so he definitely could have problems.

Eurosport is more than a couple of TV channels and a dodgy app/player since it was taken over by Discovery. Another part of Eurosport called Eurosport Events is taking over the running of the events from BSI. However BSI had lucrative deals for TV coverage with the likes of NSport/Canal Plus in Poland and may decide it's more profitable to keep selling the rights to third parties. We can but hope. BT still have the SGP/SoN this year so we have a season's grace. But yes, you cannot rely on Eurosport................ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The point was that they didn't class riders going to World U21 qualifying rounds in this way, so the Brits that were due to race in Germany recently had to forfeit their place in the qualifying round in Germany. SEC competitors MAY be looked on more favourably as it is a higher level of compatition, but who knows! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do they actually reply to peoples messages as a rule, or is it just lip service? I'm a big fan of Email the CEO via this wonderful site https://www.ceoemail.com/index.php have used it numerous times when not getting anywhere using the recognised avenues, British Gas, BT, One Stop Insurance to name but 3, it has worked every time, not necessarily with them replying but them handing it to someone who will ensure I get a call. The previous CEO of British Gas actually replied directly within an hour to advise he was just boarding a flight but would ensure I received a call within 2 hours, which I did, so it does work. Here's the details that are provided for Eurosport's top cheese if anyone fancies filling his inbox, https://ceoemail.com/s.php?id=ceo-290346&c=Eurosport Television-CEO they have always been up to date with my previous attempts, so no reason to suspect that this one isn't.

Sorry about that, it's maybe not been updated, as I said I've used the site before with relative success but not for Eurosport. Hope it wasn't a long email as that would be even more frustrating for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
