Chris Brown 542 Posted September 7, 2007 Martin Vaculik won tonights Czech Championship on this own track at Slany He won the final when Lukas Dryml fell while challenging for the lead. Looks like Josef Franc was 2nd with Adrian Rymel finishing 3rd. An ill Ales Dryml failed to make the final finishing with 9 points in 6th Results are from www.speedwaya-z.cz although a 'confused' Lukas did say that Josef Franc had won the title. I'll go with the website version Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll go with the website version <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm at Prague airport on my way back from the meeting Vaculik (a Slovakian, not a Czech!) won. He was last in the final (a four rider sudden death job) when Lukas mis-timed his dive under race leader Franc, having already passed Rymel. In the rerun the ref held tapes for a long time and Vaculik got a flyer. The four finalists were clear from early on. Simota missed out because of a 2 minute exclusion and Ales Dryml suffered an engine failure (one of many in the meeting). Sitera looked worth keeping an eye on, Tomicek had a miserable day including two EFs and the one time he was leading the race was stopped. Excellent racing, but the stadium makes Stoke and Smallmead look smart! Yet it had the best toilets I've seen at a speedway track!

Went to Slany for the 2002 World U21 Final and you are right about it being a poor stadium. Not sure whether its got floodlights yet but the timer of the meeting suggests not. What it does haev is a cracking pub at the bottom of the hill where you can get a meal for about £2 Obviously Lukas assumed the race had been awarded when he toppled off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pinstripe 0 Posted September 9, 2007 nice to see lukas coming back to form this year. his EL form has been very encouraging at home and has picked up away from home lately whilst on the international stage has been impressive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
