stevehone 3,429 Posted May 21, 2022 Wasn’t easy against the Czechs, but I think they had a slightly longer tail. Bewley maximum, and I think Kvech did too as they didn’t meet. Brennan was really quick, Kemp got 8 from 3 completed rides, and Palin got a race win final in Krakow in October 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Technik 491 Posted May 23, 2022 ( Pardubice 21.05. 2022) The first of this year's six World or European Championship races, which the Pardubice Club will host throughout the season, took place at the Pardubice Speedway Stadium. That race was the semifinals of the European Under-23 Championship. The dramatic battle to advance to the finals of this competition, which could only be secured by the winner of the race, was decided only by the last twentieth race. By winning it, Dan Bewley secured the first place in the race for British colors. The biggest star of the race, a participant in this year's Grand Prix series, did not lose a single point in the race, he was the first to finish his race five times and he completely dominated this race. In addition, the other teammates did not let themselves be embarrassed, they created a balanced team, they won in another six races, which earned them the first place in the race and the way to the October final in Krakow. Their biggest rival in the battle for every point was the Czech team. Jan Kvěch, just like Bewley won in five races, his colleagues Petr Chlupáč and Daniel Klíma each added two winning races, but the British had an advantage in experience and in the quality of the fourth rider. Both of our remaining youngsters Bruno Belán and Jakub Exler did not collect as many points, it is known that they are just entering the world flat track and of course they do not have experience as their colleagues, finalists of this year's Junior World Championships. Our team lost four points in the final count, but the team has a very low age average of nineteen and a half years and can be in a virtually unchanged line-up for another two years. The French team finished third and the fourth place went to the team of riders from three countries. This Euro team replaced the last-minute apologized Netherlands. Celina Liebmann, a competitor who will compete with the world elite in Friday's final of the Prague Junior Championship, also presented herself in his colors. 1. Great Britain: 46 1.

GB failed to make the final so below Denmark, Sweden, and Latvia i believe (and Germany) I should have realised i could look up the rules " The winning team of each Semi Final will qualify through to the Final, together with two teams nominated by the TRC (the FMNR of the Final team being one of them, + one team according to the previous years ranking)." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
