Saga Magazine this month(shows my age ) full page Speedway article(GP and domestic) "armchair sport! by John Aizlewood(award winning writer). Decent article, he obviously did some research about the history of the sport. couple of quotes With BT Sport`s coverage seducing a new audience, it`s ticking over very nicely , thank you. Dirty ? yes smelly ? yes loud ? yes. And rather wonderful ? oh, yes

One thing has been clarified overnight by someone who knows. Yesterday i suggested that Sweden had broken the rules with their use of the U21 rider and i quoted this rule. " The U21 Rider must race in a minimum of 1 heat in each meeting, Final day 1 and Final day 2 will be classed as 2 meetings. If the U21 does not get nominated before the last programmed heat for his country he will automatically replace the rider in Red or White." I now know that i misinterpreted this rule(understandably i think !) and it actually means that if a team are just about to be pushed off for the last of their programmed rides and the reserve hasn`t been used, the Race Director will step in and make the reserve go in place of the red or white(depending on their gates).

Ghostie good to hear from you- problem with your schedule would be having to Watch Masarna twice !!!!(watching Smederna twice would be less of a chore )

i quoted it earlier- few posts back

Sweden have just been allowed to break the rules

From the SON regs The U21 Rider must race in a minimum of 1 heat in each meeting, Final day 1 and Final day 2 will be classed as 2 meetings. If the U21 does not get nominated before the last programmed heat for his country he will automatically replace the rider in Red or White.

Hope GB realise it has to be Cook(red) who has to be left out in heat 21 !!!!

Rosco, we won`t do it in heat 20 because we aren`t in it

If it`s not done before their last ride in heat 21 it`s the rider in red who can`t go

Dudek replaces the injured Magic

Macon club and French federation likely to be in hot water with FIM-EUROPE as they cannot run on the reserve date(today)- lack of medical cover i think is the reason given.

I wouldn`t get too concerned if you can`t buy before you go- as you know it`s a big stadium and a Friday night match against Torun won`t sell out !

seems like it`s not now postponed !!!!!! lighting fixed, riders don`t want to come back so they will try and get 12 heats in for a result.

I don`t think they are on sale yet(surprising!) surely will be from Monday. You could ask by sending them an email at klub@wlokniarz.com

Postponed and will not be tomorrow because for some reason the Macon club can`t stage it then !!!!! new date announced soon.

Still not started- all sorts of problems in Macon- rain and the lights have gone out. Could be postponed until tomorrow.
