moomin man 76 171 Posted April 16, 2016 As far as I am aware, Nike Lunna is the only Finnish representative in the qualifiers and he will ride in the semi-final at Belle Vue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iris123 20,993 Posted April 16, 2016 Wish all the lads success,but to me it seems the title winner has been given the hardest task in Pocking.Thought the British champ would get the home meeting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it Motoarena or something else? We had a slot for it as well, the date was given 6 weeks prior to the meet. Had to give it away.  Slightly offtopic, but 19 250cc riders, that's cool!  I believe Hansen will still only do 250cc racing this year. Thats the Torun longtrack you mean?
