 Think the GP challenge needs a re-jig.( for instance)Think the Top 6  Challenge Final should meet the bottom 6 in Gp standings for places next year.( or something different).

And that could easily be done a couple of weeks after the last GP...

They make it WAY more complicated than it needs to be.

Another very tough GP challenge , hopefully Dan and Robert can make it through!

Good to have two GB riders who now go into these meetings being feared by opponents rather than "hoping they can do well", which has been the case for too long in this country when riders reached this level.. 

They both now seem very comfortable at the "top table" suggesting they both truly now believe that they are "naturally" in their rightful position...

Which can only bring further confidence and reward...

 Don’t think present GP riders should be allowed in Challenge qualifiers.Think the GP challenge needs a re-jig.( for instance)Think the Top 6  Challenge Final should meet the bottom 6 in Gp standings for places next year.( or something different). Present GP riders should should not get 2 chances.To Cosy.That would still leave places for wild Cards

I've been saying for years along the lines of the next 6 or 8 in GP meet the qualifiers.

These Gp riders are spoiling the qualifiers,finishing 5th with 3 Gp men in Top 3 is no what the Qualifiers it is about.IMo

Apologies if this has already been posted and answered elsewhere but does anybody know if the tickets for the GP challenge at Glasgow have been released yet? If not, any idea when and where they are to be released? Thanks.

I'd have thought this would be a good meeting to stream, BSN?

How about?

Top 6 through.

7-14 join 8 qualifiers in the GP Challenge. 15th misses completely.

Top 6 in GP Challenge Qualify.

Leaves 3 spots:

1 goes to SEC Champ.

2 Wildcards (allows for covering riders who get injured and end up in 15th or miss the Challenge as a result).

Once upon a time nobody got seeded. Everyone from the World Champion down started the next year from scratch. Didn’t stop Mauger winning 6, Fundin winning 5 or Briggs winning 4.

You'll have to point out which quali meetings Briggo rode in ,in 1958 

I also am finding it difficult to find Fundin in the Nordic, Continental or European Finals in 1957
