SCOTLAND1314 121 Posted August 2, 2009 Who cares about his score, you should have seen how he rode! Good was he? Did he gate or do most of his scoring by passing? Is Pori a big track? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bavarian 768 Posted August 2, 2009 Why did Kylmäkorpi not ride in this Finnish final? Money??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bream 29 Posted August 2, 2009 Kylmäkorpi was in Germany. Riding in a longtrack meeting. What I read from another forum. Track was terrible and his earlier damaged hand could not take it. So he was just 14th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bavarian 768 Posted August 2, 2009 But why would he rather ride in a long-track meeting (I think it was actually a grass track) instead of in his country's national speedway championship final? Does anyone know how often Kylmäkorpi has contested the Finnish National Championship in the past? Did he ever win the Finnish title? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f-s-p 832 Posted August 3, 2009 (edited) But why would he rather ride in a long-track meeting (I think it was actually a grass track) instead of in his country's national speedway championship final? Does anyone know how often Kylmäkorpi has contested the Finnish National Championship in the past? Did he ever win the Finnish title? According to my stats he's been in it in 2002 and 2003. Never won it though, those were the years when Laukkanen was on top of his game. Money would be a safe bet as to why not ride in the Finnish final. The actual difference between a weekend in Germany and a trip to Finland for the final just for saturday while taking along his bikes (I'd guess) would be thousands of Euros in favour of a weekend in Germany. Also probably early in the season he was hoping he'd be riding for Indianerna on the tuesday before the Finnish final + Lakeside commitments during the week and then Poland on the sunday after the Finnish final, back to Lakeside and then again Sweden on tuesday. It was a very good meeting on saturday and with his current form he would not have won it. Edited August 3, 2009 by f-s-p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bream 29 Posted August 3, 2009 About Autio's "no-xray" thing. That is simply unbelievable! Because what I have heard and seen the pics. It was "High energy crash". And there should be atleast neck x-ray and usualy chest too. But trauma-CT would be the best. It will cause more radiation but you find everything from those pics. Il bet that there has been "arvauskeskus(guess center, name for finnish health center)" doctor doing summertime job in that local hospital. What I have learned this summer is that if you have a good doctor in private sector you should use him/her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
