The highest priority is meetings in which you represent your country. especially when the EL wants to have meetings every day of the week.

Same problem with Swedish commentator is normally are very good at commentating, I think it might be a problem with the on screen graphics.

no the mistake was to schedule the speedway at 19.00 rather then 19.30 or 20.00 I also don't think that scheduling on ES2 would be a mistake since I don't think that there are that many that have access to ES2.

I think Iris123 is spot on. Speedway will be on once the tennis is finished.

My Eurosport still shows the tennis from Roland Garros, with speedway listed as live from 19.00

There already is a thread in the gp forum.

results from Avesta MASters; http://www.masarna.nu/nyheter.cgi?id=24483 Semifinals: Semi 1: Antonio Lindbäck 3, Ted Hagansbo 2, Nike Lunna 1, Maksim Bogdanow 0. Semi 2: Eric Andersson 3, Andziej Lebedev 2, Anton Rosén 1, Chrisitan Agö 0.

Wackie its the head that's the problem but rather his bikes. Also Antonio had a very poor start in last year's series. If his poor form continues I agree that he should not get a wc however qualify by own performance applies to the other riders aswell, particulary Lindgren and Harris who are two of the most charitided riders in the history of thr Grand Prix.

TWN, I agree with you and two riders who most defenitely don't deserve Wild Cards are Harris and Lindgren. Especially Lindgren since he won't bother doing the qualies.

It seems that THJ will try to ride in St. johann afterall. This is according to his website.

Ok, I'm just relaying what the announcers said, Billund Speedway center and Grindsted is part of Billund. But I guess that's the same as Eskilstuna Motorstadion which is also outside the city but still use the city name.

Trivia: this track is located in the same town (Billund) as Legoland and Lego HQ.

good stream as usual. Mads Korneliussen is joining in as expert-commentator.

Lineups for tomorrow's re-staging of the fogged off meeting between Västervik and Piraterna. Västervik - Piraterna, 2013-06-05 Västervik Peter Ljung 1,415 - 2,118 Daniel Nermark 1,719 - Tomasz Jedrzejak 1,679 - 1,444 Ludvig Lindgren 0,841 - 1,500 Troy Batchelor 0,895 - 1,867 Hans Andersen 1,424 - 1,286 Daniel Davidsson 0,666 - total average; 8,638 - 8,214 Piraterna Linus Sundström 1,455 - 1,091 Jonas Davidsson 1,356 - 1,867 Greg Hancock 1,892 - 2,000 Przemyslaw Pawlicki R/R 1,722 - 1,867 Chris Holder 1,719 - 2,267 Anton Rosén 0,782 - 1,154 Fredrik Engman 0,500 - 1,182 total average; 9,426 - 11,427

Vetlanda won.54-36. http://sverigesradio.se/sida/gruppsida.aspx?programid=179&grupp=7514

Alan, admission is 160SEK, or £16. I have a season ticket though for a bought for 700SEK Which was a limited time special offer.

I would guess that Smederna vs Indianerna in round 7 or Smederna vs Piraterna in round 8 will be televised.

Weird with rain in Kumla, here at Smedstadion the sun Is shining from a more or less clear blue sky. Pk and El Zorro got a 5-1 for Smederna in ht 5 to Make it 18-12.

I am certain that THJ won't be there due to his injury.

Vaculik laying his bike down was not the cause of the stoppage and that is what matters not who fell first. Lindgren is the cause of the stoppage since he is the one causing Tai to hit Nicki which is why Vaculik laid his his bike down. Vaculik realizes quickly that Tai is out of control and he (Vaculik) anticipated that if he continued he would most likely have ended up hitting Tai. Vaculik didn't really have any option then to lay his bike down and fair play to him for his quick thinking.

Elitserien 2013 round 5, 2013-06-04 Time flies its Sunday already and the teams for Tuesday is out. Dackarna - Vargarna Dackarna Patryk Dudek 1,609 - 1,700 David Watt 1,393 - 1,250 Michael Jepsen Jensen 1,651 - 1,952 Patrick Hougaard 0,786 - 1,813 Fredrik Lindgren 1,646 - 1,870 Dennis Andersson 1,119 - 1,100 Simon Gustafsson 1,250 - 0,667 total average 9,454 - 10,351 For Dackarna,compared to last week Joel Larsson is replaced Dennis Andersson who have rested for two weeks due to the concussion he suffered at Dackarna's away meeting against Smederna. Form for the two latest meetings: two losses away vs Smederna (Round 3) and home against Indianerna (R4). Vargarna Peter Kildemand Anders Mellgren 0,750 - 1,211 Scott Nicholls 1,360 - 1,667 Tomas Gapinski 1,721 0,91 Grzegorz Zengota 1,556 - 1,273 Adrian Miedzinski 1,600 - 2,095 Pontus Aspgren 0,679 - 0,769 Kim Nilsson 1,164 - 1,176 total average 8,334 - 10,000 Vargarna is again without Nicki and unfortunately I don't think Vargarna will be able to keep up with Dackarna. Form: 4 straight losses. Latest away against Hammarby (R3) and home against Smederna (R4). Scott Nicholls will for some reason not ride and he is replaced by Gapinski. Elit Vetlanda - Västervik Elit Vetlanda Martin Vaculik 1,714 1,381 David Ruud 1,900 0,429 Jaroslaw Hampel 1,964 2,130 Jacob Thorssell 0,677 1,000 Janusz Kolodziej 1,950 0,600 Bartosz Zmarzlik 0,790 1,333 Ricky Kling 0,508 1,000 total average: 9,503 7,873 Form for the two latest meetings: two losses. Västervik Chris Harris 1,682 1,611 Daniel Nermark 1,719 R/R Peter Ljung 1,415 2,118 Tomasz Jedrzejak 1,679 1,444 Troy Batchelor 0,895 1,867 Ludvig Lindgren Ja 0,841 1,500 Hans Andersen 1,424 1,286 total average: 9,654 9,826 Form for the two latest meetings: two wins Before the season one might have expected that Vetlanda would be in the top and Västervik at the bottom in the standings but as you know its the direct opposite. Will Vetlanda final be able to break their loosing trend or will Västervik continue with their winning streak? For Elit Vetlanda, Thomas H Jonasson is out indefitenly becasue of injury. Ikaros Smederna - Hammarby Ikaros Smederna Andreas Jonsson 2,071 - 1,765 Magnus Zetterström Ja 1,328 - 1,625 Grigory Laguta 1,600 - 1,833 Krzysztof Buczkowski 1,646 - 1,789 Kenni Larsen 0,941 - 2,167 Oliver Berntsson Ja 0,500 - 0,750 Peter Karlsson 1,672 - 1,375 total average: 9,758 - 11,304 Form for the two latest meetings: two wins, home against Dackarna (R3) and away against Vargarna (R4). Hammarby Artem Laguta 1,630 2,143 Grzegorz Walasek 1,803 - 1,579 Andrej Karpov 1,075 0,778 Sebastian Aldén 1,630 - 2,143 Rafal Okoniewski 1,432 - 1,500 Leon Madsen R/R 2,015 - 1,600 Mikael Max 1,446 - 1,467 Robin Aspegren 0,500 - 1,333 Alexander Edberg 0,540 - 0,429 total average: 8,638 - 9,249 Form for the two latest meetings: One win at home against Vargarna (R3) and one loss away against Västervik (R4). Smederna have showed good form after their initial defeat away against Piraterna and theu continue to field the same seven riders who have taken them to three straight victories. Kenni Larsen is still at nr5 due to his good form and PK is still at reserve despite riding well. Jonsson injured himelf at Cardiff, I think he ran over his own foot. but as he is listed as nr 1 I would assume that he will ride. He had an x-ray today and nothing was broken. Hammarby is currently at the bottom end of the table after only managing one victory so far. I am not sure but i do think that they will use R/R for Madsen. Obviously the lack of Madsen considerably weakens Hammarby. Indianerna - Piraterna #tv meeting# Indianerna Emil Sayfutdinov 1,688 1,500 Antonio Lindbäck 1,469 1,176 Piotr Protasiewicz 1,836 2,133 Damian Balinski 0,561 1,529 Niels-Kristian Iversen 2,462 2,238 Joonas Kylmäkorpi 1,241 0,933 Mathias Thörnblom 0,682 0,833 9,939 10,344 Form for the two latest meetings: two wins, away against Elit Vetlanda (R3) and away against Dackarna (R4) Piraterna Greg Hancock 1,892 2,000 Jonas Davidsson 1,356 1,867 Przemyslaw Pawlicki 1,722 1,867 Linus Sundström 1,455 1,091 Chris Holder 1,719 2,267 Anton Rosén 0,782 1,154 Fredrik Engman 0,500 1,182 9,426 11,427 Form for the two latest meetings: one postponed meeting away against Västervik (R3) and one win at home against Elit Vetlanda (R4). Race card for tv meeting: http://www.mediafire.com/?bvdqkhot2wp4obu Indianerna vs Piraterna, this weeks tv meeting, is a derby battle between the third and fourth teams in the standings. Indianerna is currently third with three wins and one loss, Piraterna at fourth place have two wins one loss and one postponed meeting. Both teams are at full strength and the track at Kumla usually provide prety good racing. It also the second longest track in the series with its 375m. Hammarby's track is 1m longer. For Indianerna Antonio is showing a somewhat mediocre form atleast in the GPs and might be a liabillity in this meeting Kylmäkorpi, now riding on a Swedish license, haven't started the season partuclar well either. For Piraterna the youngbloods, Engman and Rosén have done very well so far and Engman have nore then doubled his floating average in the three meetings have completed so far. There will also be a new try on Wednesday with the the fogged-off meeting between Västervik and Piraterna from round 3.

Actually there was contact. Freddie's backwheel takes out Tai's leg. http://www.youtube.c...Nnm512G0#t=115s Vaculik have to lay it down because he only have two choices either continue which likely would have caused him to crash into Tai or he could lay the bike down. A very alert move by Vaculik avoided a bigger crash.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Danish riders Peter Kildemand and Kenni Larsen as well as someone like Zmarzlik would find their way into the GPs in a couple of years time.

Oh you mean his updates aka the BSI propaganda? Did he not report that that the track would be fine by tape drop? Was the track fine? no it wasn't. It was rubbish. His reports would be valuable if he stopped with the BSI propaganda and actually reported what was going on. What the track actually looked like. What the riders really thought about the track instead of just going with what BSI told him.LIke the would actually tell the truth to a reporter. Obviously BSI will never admit that there was something wrong and that is why reporters like Philips needs to be more neautral and stop being BSI's PR person.

Excuses. Swedish commentator said before the GP that riders were still not happy with the track. Also why do you always write like you were a BSI PR person rather then the magazine editor you actually are? BSI and their staff did a very poor job with Cardiff this year. Why cant you just admit that the track was really poor qnd unsafe. No Freddie said himself to Swedish media (SVt Sport): "I found a hole at the third bend and i couldn't control my bike so i crashed". So 100% track fault.
