surely we want the best 15 riders. those who finish 9th / 10th are highly likely to be in that 15. New faces dont mean a stronger field

How do you know about Jacobs injury ? No chance he could ride for 6 weeks with broken ribs

take your point but far from deliberate and it was unfortunate he hit the fence without an airbag

If Thorsell cant ride on Wednesday what is the replacement situation. RR or can they use a guest. What guest ?

Are you sure ? I thought BWD took his place in 10.

tactical injury for the very poor Ellis. Kennett absolutely awful

I agree with Ghostie that Holder so do the 2018 GP qualifiers. Plenty of other riders like Iversen should do them as well. Riders can't expect wild cards due to nationality or Monster.

Hans is the master of the small roller. Holder fell off. NO way he laid that down.

Tungate stayed down. We need the Polish red card rule in the UK to stop that happening.

I agree. Must not grumble with 30 heats on TV.

Hard for riders to pass as the spray looks really bad. Riders getting filled in.

Kennett is pretty average everywhere bar Rye House.

If that is the case I hope Vaculik is 8th, Zagar 9th. No way can they drop Zagar after 2 GP wins. No way back for Holder in that situation unless Hancock retires. Nothing against Holder but I can't understand the logic of allowing Holder a card if he finishes well below the other two and has not won a GP.. All to race for in Torun and Melbourne.

Classic Hans roller in heat 4. Best in the business at that trick.

How hard is it for a TV director to ensure the shot we see being the best bits of a race ? Lovely close up's of one rider are fine but not when the other three riders are racing closely and over taking.

Woffy started on fire and then got extinguished. Well done Leszno.

Ha Ha. Moosh - that must be a Dorset saying. Moosh-tastic Shovel Load.

Kind words. You must know the saying about every village When is he ever right ?

Go away troll

Depends on form throughout the GP series, injury, form in the league etc.

I would have sympathy with Holder not getting a card but results are results. he's come knowhere near winning a GP but Zagar & Vaculik have both won a GP. Holder's not done much this season to get our pulses racing, he has faded. And arguably if riders hadn't been injured would have found the recent GPs even tougher. Vaculik could improve further with this season under his belt.

You are correct but I don't blame Kildermand for going down easily. If in the same position 99% of us would do the same. The rules are in black and white, can be stretched or used by anyone, to there advantage. The rules heavily favors any rider being passed on the inside who gets any form of contact. Maybe the rule needs wording differently to include contact that is deemed normal, fair or reckless. This will give a grey area for a referee but would stop riders falling off at the softest touch in the knowledge they will get the decision. It would encourage riders to stay on the bike.

I wish I could turn your sound off. You said Emil picked the wrong gate. Which he didn't as Zagar won from the same gate. What happens after the tapes go up is irrelevant.
