Robbie B 262 Posted July 19, 2010 So what are everyone's predictions for the forthcoming Speedway World Cup then? Here are mine fell free to scoff and have a good laugh if you want I don't care. Event 1 Poland to win this one very easily by about 14 points at least, I guess. Second to Poland will be a very nervy Danish team who will finish about 4 points in front of the Russians. The Czech Republic will be about 10 point behind the Russians. Event 2 I can't any reason why Great Britain can't win this one. It will be close I can see us winning by 6 points. Australia will be second about 4 points in front of Sweden, with Finland about 14 points behind the Swedes. Race-Off This will be massive battle between all the teams. I think with Leigh Adams returning to the Aussie team they will just have enough to pinch-it by 4 points. Now for a surprise the Swedish team to finish second 4 points in front of the Danes, who will badly miss Nicki Pedersen due to injury. The Russians will be 8 points behind Denmark. Final Poland are obvious favourites, but I feel they will come in second place, about 4 points behind the winners. Sweden will come fourth. So this now leaves just Great Britain and Australia. If the British riders ride to their full potential I can see them winning it (you may think I'm mad) they will need the sort of meeting that they had in the race-off in Vojens a few years ago. Australia to finish third 4 points behind Poland. I do feel that this is the best chance Great Britain have had for a few years to,if they all stick together and ride at their very best. It's just a shame that Jason, Nicki and Emil will be missing from the competition due to injury, they will be missed by all of their team greatly. Get well soon one-and-all. Now you can all have a good laugh - put your predictions on here if you dare. It's good fun really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mateusz 0 Posted July 23, 2010 (edited) can see an easy win for the danes,bjerre,b pedersen ,iversen and andersen are all in good form,so with home advantage they should cake walk it. Gollob, Hampel and Kolodziej in their lifetime form, Holta doing well in SGP as well. Danes - only Bjerre's in a good form this year, the rest is just average (may be doing fine in UK but rubbish results in Polish leagues against world's best riders, not stars like Kosciuch or Stachyra). Any other result than Poland winning it this yr will surprise me much. Edited July 23, 2010 by Mateusz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
