Little bit of a race at last. Lets hope it improves.

Can you?? Loads of gaps in the crowd... whats the point of going to these big stadiums then having no one in them

I’d turn the volume up. It’s clearly very decent atmosphere in there

Come on Watt, do the right thing and pull out and let the reserves take the remaining rides. It's embarrassing to watch.

Enjoy your retirement, stop prolonging it.

 

Will there be a pass today?

Id turn the volume up. Its clearly very decent atmosphere in there

Cant agree there at all but its impossible to get an atmosphere when no ones there

Absolutely.

Not the biggest crowd but the atmosphere is decent.

Think you're on the wrong channel.

 

The crowd isn't great for the stadium, but in reality bigger than the vast majority of speedway meetings in the world. Atmosphere sounds fine on the TV.

Track looks poor when going wide. Too grippy as riders can't turn the bike.

There’s definately an atmosphere there. 80% nitrogen and 20% oxygen with a few trace gases.

Stadiums too big for this event imo, the atmosphere isnt bad in here but half empty.

 

Interesting to hear rumours of a few so called young aussie super stars thrown out of a bar for indulging in Class As earlier on this afternoon 👀👀👀

So name a stadium that can hold speedway for 25,000 in Melbourne or any other well populated city in Australia.

 

Your comment makes no sense. Its like saying Cardiff is too big because only 40,000 attend a 70,000 seater stadium. .

Heat 9 good race.

On the one hand its fantastic the we are seeing speedway get into these kinds of stadiums but sadly there is virtually no chance of filling every seat, a crowd of 35-40000 for a speedway meeting is great but when they are sat in a stadium that holds double that the crowd looks poor. Maybe its a reflection of the racing we seem to be more interested on how many people is there.

Finally, a race worthy of GP standard.

Congratulations to Jason Doyle. Deserved title.
