Probably be allowed to guest in NL next season,just to make it pay of course Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You'll love next season when those two mediocre riders sign for the mediocre Pirates. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My point is not that is subjective but rather that you cannot put an = between GP-rider and top 15 in the world which some are doing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fromafar 10,367 Posted August 27, 2019 Having just watched Challenge on You Tube.Not a bad meeting .Imo.What ever the thoughts on Aspgren as aGP rider ,he certainly was the most unluckiest on the night.The present GP riders showed their class and consistency and deserve to be in Next Year.Harris was on a lawn mower( or couldn’t get the set up) Cook showed he just isn't good enough when the going gets tough in tight situations at that level .Imo 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave_minall 232 Posted August 31, 2019 I'd just like to point out that the folks who were annoyed at zagar and iversen for qualifying for next year should get their coats 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BWitcher 12,453 Posted August 31, 2019 (edited) Some posts on here really haven't aged very well at all have they, bemoaning the 'no hope' Zagar and Iversen for qualifying for next year. Who are those two in tonights final again? Edited August 31, 2019 by BWitcher 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pinny 2,536 Posted September 1, 2019 Makes you laugh, Iversen just 4 points off top 4 and Zagar 6 with a few rounds to go. Yet people whinge they shouldnt be in there . And also , both in the final tonight. Comical. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One day the shout shout is “I want to see the top 15 in the world race”, next day “give some new blood a chance”. The two are not always, very frequently, the same.

Gavan 5,050 Posted September 1, 2019 Iversen and Zagar proving yet again they are totally in the top 15 in the world and deserving of their place in the GP series Quite a lot of keyboard numpties saying they are bored they are in......clueless about speedway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triple.H. 1,986 Posted September 1, 2019 (edited) GP Challenge final shouldn't be till after the last GP. Maybe have it at the same track as the final GP but the day after. Ideal for TV coverage Edited September 1, 2019 by Triple.H. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also if a rider wanted to go on his holidays before the end of the season he'd soon change his mind if he wanted the opportunity to continue as a GP rider or become one if he wasnt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you're a GP rider and doing the qualifiers as your plan B . you'd still be doing your best to get a top 8 place till the end of the final GP as you wouldn't know you already had a place for next season.
