Leszno confirm that Ben Cook, Zengota and Kolodziej will all stay with the club in 2026. Pickering is leaving for pastures new.

Exactly and it’s not as if the points difference is vast for the non-finalists and the finalists. The more points scored in the 20 heats the better chance of scoring 12 rather than 11 in finishing 2nd in the LCQ’s and so on 10 to 9, and 8 to 7. I like it - easy to work out ( now WBD have stopped cocking up the scorechart for TV ).

Bydgoszcz home 1st- it’s in the rules.

For 2025 yes because of the Cardiff fiasco under the old rule of ‘ who beat who ‘ ( 2nd in line after wins, 2nds etc) last season.

A simple rule !!! If riders are tied after 20 heats it goes to wins, 2nds and 3rd’s - if that cannot split them then the fastest time set by each rider is the determining factor. It shouldn’t be but it is. All because they couldn’t work out who beat who in the 4 rider tie in Cardiff in 2024.

Not quite 14,500- 16760 in today

Parnitskyi has signed for 2 more years in Leszno

I’m expecting the announcement on or around Monday 22nd September. They have to wait to see who wins the SEC on Friday evening in Pardubice. If a rider wins it from the 11 already confirmed( Lebedevs or Madsen) then WBD/FIM get an extra wildcard making it 4 not 3.

Longtrack of nations tonight rained off after 9 races- try again tomorrow in Vechta with a new meeting from heat 1
