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. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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... 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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 Edited June 14, 2022 by Fromafar 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Welwyn 62 Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) 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).

customhouseregular 1,651 Posted June 15, 2022 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. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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 Edited June 15, 2022 by iris123 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
