racers and royals

Tell you what I will do in a moment of madness you can have 50/1 WIN only

In the final Red Denmark Blue Australia White Poland Yellow GB confirmed teams should be known about 5pm uk time today.

Philip can you give an answer to the query regarding the rules for naming teams for the matches at Lynn and Vestervik-i say that the team and riding order is fixed when the 4 riders taking part are nominated 14 days prior to this 1st round(apart from a rider being injured or ill ) others say that riding order can be changed-there certainly was some misunderstanding this year about who was riding in what position within the team. Could you clarify what the rule is ?

Wait for it-Jim Lawrence.

" Main Man " advising Billy Hamill on the tacticals

Wrong-if Philip Rising agrees with you I will apologise.

Wrong -hopefully Philip Rising will confirm at some stage that "once the SWC final tournament has started " means after round one and 2 -because it says also "as teams progress" they are allowed to change line-up-ie race-off and final.

You are wrong-read the world cup rules here http://www.fim-live.com/fileadmin/alfresco/6550005_eng.pdf and when you have I will accept your apology.

You are obviously not reading what I am writing-the rules allow the run-off line-up and the final line-up to be announced 30 minutes after practice finishes-this does NOT happen in the 1st rounds-the teams must line-up with the team as declared 14 days previously(unless a rider is injured) It`s not rocket science.

Kelvin seems very frustrated at something-not his normal self at all- mic problems ?

But it didn`t necessarily happen-they rode in the 2 meetings in the line-up given 14 days ago-how the wrong order appeared elsewhere(was it wrong in the programme ?) needs explaining by someone.

Sorry but that`s not true-teams HAVE to give their riders and riding order 14 days before the Kings Lynn and Vestervik staged meetings-read the rules on this link http://www.fim-live.com/fileadmin/alfresco/6550005_eng.pdf it hasn`t been a problem in previous years and it`s not a new rule.

USA-Red 1 Manzares 2 Ruml 3 Wells 4 Hancock Czechs -Blue 1 Milik 2 krcmar 3 Franc 4 Dryml Australia-white 1 Ward 2 Batchelor 3 Doyle 4 Holder Sweden-Yellow 1 THJ 2 Nilsson 3 Berntzon 4 Jonsson

Think it`s pretty versatile http://www.etihadstadium.com.au/stadium/seating-configuration

They can`t for Lynn and Vastervik.-see my previous post or view here http://www.fim-live.com/fileadmin/alfresco/6550005_eng.pdf

No changes were allowed to the riding order which had to be submitted 14 days prior to last Tuesday-Danish Webmaster for 1 I`m sure had access to the confirmed line-ups-however the Czech`s seemed to have swapped Dryml and Franc around-Maybe Philip Rising can let us know why this apparent anomaly happened ?

Regarding Poland -yes they have to be U21

Yes-confirmed line-ups should be known about 2pm uk time. Tomorrow the final line-ups will be known about 5pm uk time.

Sportowefakty.pl are reporting that`s it a done deal for Melbourne to host a GP in 2015.

Sweden won`t even be close to the Aussies-they are certainties to win tonight.

We are back in Polish league action this Sunday-3rd August.-all uk times 1st up at 12.35 pm for 1st race at 1pm Div 1 Lublin v Lodz teams http://www.sportowefakty.pl/zuzel/wydarzenie/25288 followed at 3pm for 3.30pm 1st race Tarnow v Torun teams http://www.sportowefakty.pl/zuzel/wydarzenie/25235followed at 5.30 pm for 6pm 1st race Zielona Gora v Leszno teams http://www.sportowefakty.pl/zuzel/wydarzenie/25237 http://soccer-live.pl/transmisje.php?id=motorsport http://www.meczyki.pl/

You can have 20/1 team gb with me-Euro`s Zloty`s accepted.

It is Smederna v Rospiggarna on TV next week-see post 33

Well I for one do not think Denmark will have it easy-with the team they have picked -I can see Sweden running them close.
