I imagine Rickardsson in particular has identified a huge gap in Swedish talent. Maybe they think Hellstrom Bangs will make it anyway. Maybe with Lambert and Bewley being young they don't see the need to develop another Brit. Maybe not enough Brits have bought Discovery Sport + packages so why give a spot to a Brit. Or vice versa. Lots of factors feeding into the decisions beyond having the best available field. Regardless everyone had the chance to qualify so can have no complaints if they didn't secure their place on track. That is the bottom line. Can't really understand the moaning. Brennan had his chance and failed to finish in the top 5 in his round. So might have tsruggled to finish in the top 8 here...Generally there are 3 or 4 riders in with a chance of winning and the rest are there to make up the numbers..... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTT 1,227 Posted May 27, 2022 Track not fit for racing again unfortunately. Seeing quite a lot of that this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted May 27, 2022 This is now ridiculous. And the girl is going to get 2 points. Unless she also falls. As bad as the Swedish meeting last night. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TTT 1,227 Posted May 27, 2022 Heart in mouth time for our young drivers. Heat 10 proving the track has now reached un-rideable levels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She is playing it safe I remember another woman rider over a decade ago, who usually picked up a point or two by cruising round and not sliding in the bends, whereas the other youngsters at least tried and often failed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was going to record the GP and watch the CL Final but I don't know if I'm going to bother recording the GP altogether now. The track is awful even on a good day. Never seen a good GP around the place but the weather is making it 1000% worse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tactical Joker 60 Posted May 27, 2022 Tractor just did more laps than the bikes to try to take the dirt off, much of which is now on the back straight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TTT 1,227 Posted May 27, 2022 Celina's tactics in Heat 10 don't bother sliding, Just poodle round and hope Knudsen falls off. Waste of a wildcard just to get a box ticked. Sorry but it has to be said when this is supposed to be a professional sport. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
