mothorsen 39 Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) Wrong exclution. Nicki's move was pure racing with no intent to harm or cause an accident. Batch on the other hand could've moved out of the way instead of trying to defend an already taken line. "What comes around..." and "You reap what you sow" does not justify a wrong decision. Snarlig at people is not ok, but kicking the paperstand is a nice way to let of some steam. He is in contention for a rostrum spot in the world championship, and frustration is understandable.

TheReturn 1,724 Posted September 14, 2014 I agree with this, where was Batchelor supposed to go, Turn right?....You reap what you sow Nicki, you reap what you sow...Unlucky, get over it! No just stick to his line he had ridden himself onto, not turn into the rider who was already through the gap that Batch left. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheReturn 1,724 Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) QUITE a few riders watching on the TV monitors in the Vojens pits wouldn't agree with you. Doesn't mean they're right. Many of them are anti Nicki anyway as previous interviews have shown. Two other riders, Nichols and Tatum both suggested Nicki was unlucky to be excluded.

PHILIPRISING 7,298 Posted September 14, 2014 QUITE a few riders watching on the TV monitors in the Vojens pits wouldn't agree with you. Sorry, that was misleading. Those riders around the monitors felt that NP was the cause of the accident and that TB had no say in the matter! Doesn't mean they're right. Many of them are anti Nicki anyway as previous interviews have shown. MAYBE, but in matters like this I always feel riders are better judges than people like me who have never ridden a speedway bike let alone been in that situation. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
THE DEAN MACHINE 4,746 Posted September 14, 2014 QUITE a few riders watching on the TV monitors in the Vojens pits wouldn't agree with you.dont you have an opinion or are you just agreeing with" your mates" as usual. Did Barry Briggs say it was all caused because the dirt deflector was set a wrong height ?. My mate said bls bla bla .pathetic 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ghostwalker 1,859 Posted September 14, 2014 Sorry to spoil the party but I think the referee was dead right. Pedersen did pass on the inside but delayed his turn fractionally on the third bend enough to hit Batchelor who was trying to turn. Spot on ref. So did Chris Harris on Nicki but Nicki got excluded for that one so both you and the ref have double standard just so you can find an excuse to blame Nicki.

PHILIPRISING 7,298 Posted September 14, 2014 BJERRE had a dislocated shoulder which Nicki P's physio put back for him and he has a bettered and bruised hip. Full extent of his injuries weren't immediately apparent last night but no doubt he will contest the GP Challenge on Saturday but as Mr Tatum would say he will be "feeling very second hand."

Sorry I edited whilst you were posting. I agree that riders are better judges, but I added to my post to point out that two other riders on commentary suggested that Nicki was hard done to. To many of the GP boys seem to have problems with Nicki, so I suspect every incident he is ever involved in many of them will blame him, regardless of the facts, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PHILIPRISING 7,298 Posted September 14, 2014 THESE decisions are always made in the eye of the holder (no, not Chris) and rarely are absolutely black and white. Plenty agree with Nicki, plenty don't ... nothing wrong with that and good for sensible debate, which isn't always the case here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
