Track Building Gelsenkirchen Gp (11 Oct.)

[Mr Bee 64]

It has been mooted to me that it could be a deliberate ploy by the promotion:-

 

Tickets sales reportely to be very poor indeed. (Just a couple of thousand?)

Meeting insured for a call off.

Polonia Bydgoszcz already lined up for next saturday.

City Hotel Bydgoszcz suprisingly fully booked.

Guaranteed mega sell out with T Gollob set to pick up $200k.

 

I smell a rat.

 

I think that you are spot on with that.

[beercellar 7]

so is this going to happen if the australian gp goes ahaed next year ? all check your travel insurance before traveling to these avents in future, those poor guys in germany, must be fumming, i would be, as someone said ealier tho, u might get some cash back through insurance as it was cancelled.

I'v been in hospital since Thursday,got discharged at 15.00 Saturday afternoon and went home looking forward to the last GP of the season.When i turned my PC on and read that this GP was cancelled and the rerun was to be held in Poland,where attendances for league matches are higher than some GP'S,my very first thought was exactly what you wrote pugwash.

Checked the webcam and it's been ripped up as one expected.

What a total disaster for SGP - such a shame, but maybe this might be a wakeup call, let OO direct the race and someone else build and deliver the track.

 

If all the things about ticket sales and poorly pedo etc come out to be the real cause it will self destruct SGP.

 

just feel for everyone who has spent good hard earned dosh in these credit crunch times to get there and it be orf.

What a farce!!!!

Be interesting to see who carries the can for this one!

It simply isn't acceptable for Olsen/BSI/IMG to blame the "locals" like they did after Gothenburg.

Feel very sorry for all those who made the trip out there.

 

Gollob will be happy about the location for the re-staging though. Hopefully Smolinski gets to keep his wild card spot.

Olsen and his team should carry the can for this one talking to a stadium worker on saturday he quoted to me that the reason that the shale had got to wet was down to the cost of 2000 euros for sheeting to keep the shale dry to me thats about 1600 pounds i would say thats peanuts to what its will cost I M G in expenses and refunds for me should be the first to get the sack along with a few more

[Paddi 19]

Didn't enjoy that one did ya

Just a little side issue

Just how do you get your money back let alone the "free tickets" for next year"?

I have emailed see tickets...no response

I have phoned see tickets and there is no one available

I have used other phone numbers on their website and the phone just rings

Seems that getting the money back etc is going to be a pain

After the aborted Ullevi meeting I should have learned a lesson I suppose

What's that got to do with chucking your money down the drain tripping off to Germany? I should think you'll boycott the GPs now won't ya after being treated so shabbily??

Why do you boycott world finals after 1975, did Oxford fans boycott Oxford after they had a rain off on one of the hottest days of the year once over.

 

Dspite one or two luddites who are revelling in this,the GP will continue to go from strength to strength

See tickets sent me an email on saturday giving an address to return the tickets to for a refund,

 

I too have emailed them re how and when do we get our free tickets, as yet no reply

 

They are not getting my tickets back until I get a satisfactory reply
