f-s-p 832 Posted June 11, 2010 Rene Lehtinen has crashed in practise yesterday pretty heavily. The info from the Finnish longtrack supremo Seppänen is that he has a couple of compressed and fractured vertebraes in his back. He lost the axel in his front wheel and flew over the handlebars and in the end to the fence. Luckily (apparently) the was no fear of anything worse and the story I have is that he's out for 10 weeks on scrutches and a corset/back support. Lehtinen uses the donut-style neck support. Forecast for this weekend is pretty moist for most of Finland, so Kauhajoki on both days looks under doubt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icicle 896 Posted June 11, 2010 Anyone have any info on Jani Eerikainen? He seems to have been clocking up some good scores recently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f-s-p 832 Posted June 12, 2010 Born June 17th 1986. Ride's decently with below standard bike's. Very nice guy too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f-s-p 832 Posted June 12, 2010 Extraliiga at Kauhajoki rained off. New date later. First round of the 80cc Suomen Cup was won by Henry Ahlbom before Vili Mattila and Niilo Vuolas. Vili Hautala was third. It looks like Jooa Partanen (currently out with a hand injury), Miikka Hyyryläinen, Vili Mattila and Ahlbom are the Finns for the 80cc Euro's and World's. Today's meeting was supposed to be a quali between Ahlbom, Mattila and Hautala for two places. Partanen and Hyyryläinen have already been nominated before. Full results tomorrow, I'm too tired to write them now... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

f-s-p 832 Posted June 13, 2010 80cc Suomen Cup at Kauhajoki yesterday Vili Hautala was disqualified in the final after having ridden a competetive 9 point score. So it's a good headache for Marko Partanen, who is supposed to pick up his riders for the international scene after this weekend.

Vicar 2 Posted June 13, 2010 (edited) Not so many riders in Lahti and Seinajoki... I think Viljanen has one "3" less Something wrong with Olli Heikkilla (shouldn't he be last in 11th heat?) Why there is only one rider in some heats? Because of heat format for seven pairs? Why they didn't switch to 6 pairs format?

Bream 29 Posted June 14, 2010 Injuries and mechanical problems. I think that Palmi blew his engine in training just before the match. So Seinäjoki-1 lost a rider. I injured ligaments from my ankle in a football game last week. So Seinäjoki-2 lost a rider. Dont know about problems of Lahti. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f-s-p 832 Posted June 14, 2010 Not so many riders in Lahti and Seinajoki... I think Viljanen has one "3" less Something wrong with Olli Heikkilla (shouldn't he be last in 11th heat?) Why there is only one rider in some heats? Because of heat format for seven pairs? Why they didn't switch to 6 pairs format? There was a mistake on Viljanen's score on the excel sheet I got. You were right. O.Heikkilä indeed was last in heat 11. Would you believe that the heat had both Viljanen and O.Heikkilä finishing on 1 point? I do... But put Heikkilä for 4th and finishing last, that way the combined score adds up on both occasions. It's seven pairs because thats how it's been ridden from the first round and should be done so all the way through the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vicar 2 Posted June 14, 2010 It's seven pairs because thats how it's been ridden from the first round and should be done so all the way through the season. Yeah, I realize that. But nothing wrong would happened if they would change in this match heat format to six pairs. Just less heats with no full squad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f-s-p 832 Posted June 21, 2010 - Finnish speedway was taking a break last weekend as an integral part of it was attending Provinssirock at Seinäjoki. Action resumes tomorrow, when the third round of the Extraliiga is staged at Lahti. - Round 4 that was rained off at Kauhajoki a week ago is now set on July 6th. - Vili Hautala is now also nominated for the 80cc YTG after Finland received a fifth place in the qualifiers. - Kalle Katajisto rides in Slovenia next weekend in the U21 semi while Kauko Nieminen is not all that pleased to get drawn to Togliatti's race off in the SGP quali's. - Timo Lahti was the first Finnish rider ever to qualify directly in to the U19 European final yesterday in the 10 or so year long history of the competition. Katajisto was the first Finn in the final last year, when he was upgraded in to the meeting after qualifying as a reserve from his semifinal. It'll be interesting to see how Lahti Racing manages to ride in Gorican on July 24th and then attend practise at Kings Lynn on July 26th. Best of luck to both! - Lahti II has now been thrown out of the Kaupunki Cup after failing to attend their second meeting of the season. Rest of the season will now be ridden with a 6 team format, as requested by Vicar earlier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
f-s-p 832 Posted June 23, 2010 Extraliiga yesterday at LAhti. Nothing spectacular but a few good battles and chases. Jari Mäkinen was in the army so Jani Eerikäinen was covering for him. Haukat continues in the lead of the series to the final round of the spring half. Teams will have new averages after Kauhajoki's meeting for the final four meetings of the season and that is expected to create some debate how it will all turn out. Maybe we'll even see some avg. fixing!
