I have spoken to Mikael Karlsson previously about this very subject. To be fair it was added to the welcome bit before the start- but that isn’t always so and i think the way the scorecard has been created they cannot put 4 RR’s against the riders heats before the races, which i still think is so silly compared to the rest of the system- Also Poland and Denmark do not allow such amateurish happenings.

Very wet in Eskilstuna now.

Group D result from Krosno today Krosno 4 Rzeszow 3 Krakow 2 Tarnow 0- incomplete team Cumulative after 3 rounds( 5 team group) Krosno 11.5 (3) Rzeszow 7 (3) Lublin 6.5 (2) Krakow 2 (2) Tarnow 1 (2)

Not Prem P or Sorensen i think

In that case SVEMO should insist that the referee when he knows the confirmed teams insists that the volunteer when writing the little piece above the teams ALWAYS indicates that RR is operational. This is the inly thing that lets the whole thing down- declared teams on Sunday night’s and the updates are excellent.

SVEMO on the live updates have posted the confirmed line-ups a few minutes ago and have NOT mentioned it’s RR for Fajfer. Very poor on their part !!

Zach Cook has signed for Wroclaw

Piraterna running RR for O Fajfer tonight.

No sprint at this GP( because of SGP 3) Q 1 and Q 2 still the same but Q 3 to decide pick order 1-4 is the 4 riders out on track at the same team for 60 secs and whoever sets the fastest lap has 1st pick for GP.

It’s more of a pain when the confirmed teams come up around 30 mins before the start don’t mention that it’s R/R for ….. sometimes they do but others not. I don’t think we have had RR yet in Sweden this season which is a welcome change.
