racers and royals

However will there be anyone at the race-off ? recently i believe the host country have been been in it

Surely they will have to put in place a contingency for riders getting injured during meetings.

20 heats instead of 25 naturally the admission price will be adjusted accordingly.

Poznan or Wroclaw are the airports generally used for Leszno-Wizzair or Ryanair fly from various airports.Are you releying on public transport in poland ? Try www.booking.com for hotels.

Tickets bought roll on April 2012 !!

Belle Vue a round of the u21 championship and Scunthorpe a semi-final of the team u21 championship.

What a stupid suggestion-great if you want to end world championship speedway.What about supporters attending on a weekday as against a weekend-would halve the crowd at a stroke.

Thanks to Ghostwalker`s excellent Swedish 2012 thread i can answer my own question as regards Sweden. 1 u21 rider per line-up can ride anywhere in team minimum 3 rides per meeting.

I agree we should have one u21 british rider in each team-obviously Poland have the 2 reserves as u21 Poles but i`m not so sure that the Swedish u21 is always at reserve.

Should the Elite league here introduce a compulsary u21 British rider next season ?-I was wondering if someone could post how the rules work with the u21 riders in the top flight Polish and Swedish leagues.

Oy-You Are Not To Far Away to get a slap

Sportowefakty are reporting that Leszno are hopeful that the Pawlicki brothers will ride for them in 2012 and could sign next week.

At Prague one has to pay to see practise so maybe some competitive action would increase the punters attending.

Phillip Rising has said on another thread that the staging time for the practice is possibily going to be later-6pm i think was mentioned.I have been to several over the years and i have struggled to keep awake. Someone else mentioned that the GP bikes now have transponders fitted,and that set me thinking as what could be done to improve practice for the spectator. Obiviously there`s no grid position in speedway-and the draw number doesn`t really affect the outcome to much in my opinion.however could a one flying lap(don`t want to ruin the starting area)competition be introduced with the fastest being awarded one GP point. Thoughts anyone ?

Which is what Ghostwalker said in his OP a week ago !

Do you mean Nikki P rather than Lindgren ? ? I would counter that by saying what has Lindgren ever done in Poland-not a lot most weeks.

Maybe in that case he might end up at Wroclaw with "magic "-if they can afford him !

Speedwaygp.com are reporting that Thomas Gollob is staying at Gorzow for next season so it set me thinking who will be the five that miss out on getting a polish top-flight team.My guess is Harris,Bjarne Pedersen,Lindback,Lindgren and Bjerre. I am also guessing the teams might look like this. Leszno hampel Zielona Gora Hancock Rzeszow Crump Bydgoszcz Sayfutdinov Torun Holder Gdansk Ward Wroclaw Jonsson Tarnow Protasiewicz Czestochowa Nicki Pedersen Gorzow Gollob it would be interesting what our polish forum friends think will happen.

Only a last race 5-1 kept Czestochowa in the extraleague-after winning in Gniezno 47-43 they lost the 2nd leg 44-46 and were 39-45 down with one race to go. Scores http://live.sportowefakty.pl/launch_speedway_3094.html
