June01 270 Posted September 22, 2014 RUSSIAN federation provide no help for Emil or any of their riders for that matter. That's one reason why they have no competed in the SWC of late. Do the BSPA provide any "help" for any of our riders? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vince 9,459 Posted September 23, 2014 Â Money is more important than the world title, the world title doesn't pay the bills when your 50 or 60. Emil is milking the SEC. Â He gets paid more with exclusivity rights. I'd have thought the best financial pay out in Speedway would be the year you are World Champion with increased exposure comes better sponsorship and a little more money in every race from every club you ride for. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SCB 15 Posted September 23, 2014 SAYFUTDINOV and the Laguta brothers have refused to ride in the SWC because they have no support from the Russian federation. But then what support do the Russian federation get from BSI/IMG? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SCB 15 Posted September 23, 2014 Last time they had an Aussie GP at the end of the season a few riders who had nothing to ride for become injured anyway. So you might find they need a few replacements. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PHILIPRISING 7,298 Posted September 23, 2014 But then what support do the Russian federation get from BSI/IMG? AS the Russian federation are members of the FIM, maybe that question should be aimed at Geneva Last time they had an Aussie GP at the end of the season a few riders who had nothing to ride for become injured anyway.

pandorum 1,259 Posted September 23, 2014 SAYFUTDINOV and the Laguta brothers have refused to ride in the SWC because they have no support from the Russian federation. So basically exactly what they did last time and I think the time before that. I don't blame them to be honest. They have said it's not just for them but for Russian riders who are up-and-coming and I believe them. Russia could have won two world cups if not for a bigger bunch of imbeciles in charge than we have. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
