Starting the match earlier would mean many of the crowd having to take a half day off work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaizer 2,864 Posted October 12, 2021 Cracking lineup. Poles look ridiculously strong though. Could be a bit of a hiding on the cards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s the experience the uk riders will get that matters. They will be racing as a team for the first time for ages. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I'd assume will be streamed. Musielak was on another level at the qualifier on borrowed machinery. And he's what 4th or 5th in terms of international recognition. Hope weather behaves will be great meeting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SharpenRake 1,505 Posted October 12, 2021 Clearly the Poles are taking this seriously bringing over Musielak as their 6th rider when they could easily have used Glasgow's Marcin Nowak. Musielak was unbelievable in the Grand Prix Challenge using Brady Kurtz's bike, so goodness knows what he'll be like if he has his own machine! Just hope the weather is kind. The weather has been unpredictable recently with it pouring with rain in one part of the City and dry in another so fans shouldn't assume if it is raining where they live or if approaching Glasgow that it will be raining at the track but then again .........
