Det må du undskylde. Der er jo en forskel på Dansk og Svensk, men denne fejl var nu nok nærmere fordi jeg havde for travlt.

ELIT VETLANDA - INDIANERNA

After two previous losses, Elit Vetlanda finally won at home, by a big margin. The meeting was closer than the score suggests but the top riders of the home side were just too strong for the away team, winning the four final heats with a combined score of 18-6, making the final score probably bigger than it should have been.

 

The meeting was one of the better in Vetlanda for a long time;

 

- Hampel chasing hard to pass fast-gasting Okoniewski of the final lap in heat 3

- Holta and Protasiewicz with an amazing battle in heat 4

- Laukkanen's last bend blast around Ljung in heat 5

 

This is just to mention a few of the entertaining heats throughout the evening. Full credits to both teams for pulling off a great show!

 

Elit Vetlanda 59

1. Lee Richardson 3-2-3-3-2* = 13+1 (5)

2. Peter Ljung F-2-N-2* = 4+1 (3)

3. Jaroslaw Hampel 3-3-3-3-3 = 15 (5)

4. Tomasz Jedrzejak 1-1-2*-0-1 = 5+1 (5)

5. Rune Holta 3-2-1-1-3 = 10 (5)

6. Adam Skornicki 3-1-1*-1*-3 = 9+2 (5)

7. Niklas Larsson N-N-N-2* = 2+1 (1)

8. Robin Aspegren 1-0-M = 1 (3)

 

Indianerna 36

1. Magnus Zetterström 2-0-3-3-1-0 = 9 (6)

2. Roman Povazhny 1*-2-0-N-F = 3+1 (4)

3. Matej Ferjan R-3-2-2*-0-1 = 8+1 ()6)

4. Rafal Okoniewski 2-1-R-0 = 3 (4)

5. Piotr Protasiewicz 2-1-Fx-2-2 = 7 (5)

6. Simon Gustafsson N-N-N-N = 0 (0)

7. Kaj Laukkanen 2-0-3-0-Ef = 5 (5)

8. Ludvig Lindgren F-1 = 1 (2)

 

For Elit Vetlanda,

Richardson was razor sharp from the gate and determined throughout the heats. Ljung started will a fall in his comeback but progressed as the meeting went along. Hampel was excellent, hopefully this will boost his confidence after a slow start to the season. Jedrzejak did OK, a solid second string performence. Holta never looked exceptionally quick but still had a double digit score. Skornicki did very well, his first really good performence in Vetlanda, won both reserve heats and picked up points in the rest, celebrating with a donut after his fifth ride, much to the crowd's delight. Larsson came into heat 11 and showed no respect, was ahead of Laukkanen when the latter suffered an engine failure. Aspegren tried hard but lost a silly point when his dirt deflector wasn't on while coming to the tapes in the re-run of heat 10, his time - and points - will come.

 

For Indianerna,

Zetterström tried hard as always and won two heats in World Champion style but faded towards the end. Povazhny did what could be expected of him from the main body of the team, against Elit Vetlanda away. Ferjan blow hot and cold, his score doesn't lie! Okoniewski had an amazing jump from the tapes in his first heat, but has never seemed to like the Vetlanda track, going through a bad period as well, or so it seems. Protasiewicz was always in the thick of action, worth more. Laukkanen didn't make a gate all night but tried the best he could, had a fine win from the back in heat 5. Lindgren crashed heavily in his first ride, just before the finish line but walked back to the pit relatively unharmed.

 

Man of the match: Jaroslaw Hampel

 

Most exciting rider: Piotr Protasiewicz
