well i kinda doubt that. Sweden could have put this team on the track: 1. Tomas H Jonasson 2. Simon Gustafsson 3. Billy Forsberg 4. Ludvig Lindgren 5. Linus Eklöf but neither Simon Gustafsson or Billy Forsberg could participate due to injury and they are together with Jonasson our 3 best U21 riders. Unforunately for Billy this was his last chance of a U21 team title as he'll be 22 y.o. next year.

Hello, there are already two threads about U21 TWC in the International section.

the answer is simple. release the throttle a bit let Nicki pass and then try to go on Nickis inside. NO ONE forced Emil to stay on Nickis outside. Emil should have backed off earlier and realized that Nicki had passed him. I think referee decisions like this might take away riders intrest in trying to make a pass since if there is contact they will get excluded. Sure Nicki was only 95% ahead of Emi but the last 20-30 centimeters should not matter. A rider should realize that he is passed and should act accordingly to that. It would be different if they both were side by side but that was not he case here. Nicki was first into the corner and should be allowed to choose which line he want.

yep! All of these links are different kind of streams encoded by a special protocols like. To be able to view most streams (except a few like http://* and mms://* *.aspx) you will need a third party software like sopcast, tvu. tvants and etc... sopcast is the most commonly used. i recommend you to read the beginners guide: http://www.myp2p.eu/guide.php?part=software well i've been using myp2p.eu for over a year and have never had any problems with viruses and etc..

some transfer news: Sebastian Ulamek moves from Lejonen to Rospiggarna. Lubos Tomicek will leave Rospiggarna. The transfer window opened today and closes on Sunday at midnight. New riders can not be used until registered by Svemo which happens on Friday in the next week.

you couldnt be more wrong. Emil went to wide and stayed at the outside line too long. He should have eased of on throttle to go on the inside of Nicki but he choosed to stay on Nickis outside after all nicki was first into the bend and therefore should be allowed to choose which line he wants not his fault EMil stayed on the outside.

QUOTE (Rob B @ May 31 2009, 12:37 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> BUT Pedersen is the grandmaster of doing the move you described, looking over when being pased then moving in on the rider to make contact then fall off, he has done it so many times. yes but that is irrelevant when it comes who's fault it was. the only thing that counts is what happened then and there. A referee should never ever take a decision of exclusion based on who the rider is. We cant have referees making decisions based on what riders they like or don't like instead of taking a decision based on who's fault it is.

actually the Swedish commentators Johan Ejeborg and Erik Stenlund said that there had been complaint from the riders about the state of the track. Too slick, Too hard, too dry and too difficult. But i wonder if IMG/Ole really care if the do they shouldnt hold agp on Ullevi in the first place. On top of that Ole's claims that the track "is 100% better then last year" is just pathetic.

yeah Emil should have been ex'd. Where were Nicki supposed to go straigh into the fence or release the throttle and let Emil go around?. This time i really understand Nickis frustration and i think i agree with him that the ref's exclude him because his Nicki. and Emil wins his 2nd GP!!!!!!!!!!

yeah i agree. And Ole Olsen is a funny man. Yesterday he claimed that the track was 100% better then last year but now we know that he was only joking. Coz' if he didnt i really wonder what is so much better this year?

a bunch of streams: http://www.myp2p.eu/broadcast.php?matchid=...amp;part=sports

though i am not 100 % sure i think what it says is that you need to fill in your personal information to register but that you can give or deny them or their partners the right to, use it for marketing surveys (the first give/deny) and advertisings sent out via email or sms (not spam). The emails will have info about special offers at ticketone or from their partners. The second give/deny consent only applies if you are company. Again this is what i think it says and i am not sure.

i told you so as long as they got their money rolling in the quality of the racing doesnt matter: http://speedwaygp.com/en/newsdetail/a298?S...6705894c672959b

Vargarna are interested in lending Troy Batchelor from Ikaros Smederna. Smederna Team manager says he might consider a switch with Troy for Kim Nilsson. Personally i'd prefer to keep Troy he have only been riding in 3 meetings and though he didnt do good at the two home meetings i think given some time he will improve. About Kim he is a talent but i don't understand why we would need another low scoring U21 rider? Kim havent really done good this season from reserve. He would have to fight with Eklöf/R.Henderson/ R. Bergqvist for the last spot in the lineup. It feels like Smederna wouldn't gain anything on it more likely loose on it.

here is an article about one of the grid girls and also the Boss of the techical Steweard team who's assignment is to check that all the bikes are within the regulation. http://folket.se/sportfolket/speedway/1.371507

well no matter what happens on Saturday they still will comeback for next year since Ullevi signed a 3 year deal. And as long as they have 15-20'000 people watching it i doubt that they will move coz' money talk and more spectators is why they moved it back to Ullevi from Eskilstuna.

found an article about Speedway in Finland http://www.svenskmotorsport.com/nyhetsarki...ticle464687.ece

in general i think its the same old story about who will do good. Crump, Nicki, Hans, Gollob, Greg.... It will be interesting to see how Emil handles this long temporary track. Track length is 400m+. Hard to predict without a proper draw but i think The Final: 1. Nicki 2. Crump 3. Gollob 4. AJ Semis: Nicki Crump Gollob AJ Greg Lindgren Adams Emil S.

Anders, firstly i did not write that article, i only linked to it and im not out to trash anyone im just really pissed that the away team's opinions is worth more then the home team's. Which could have costed us a victory. Secondly. The home team represented by Zorro who spoke directly to the spectators, on a direct question on why is it takings long, replied that "we want to ride, the track is in the way we want it but Holta think its to wet". Then the clock had already passed 19.15. Also there had been a meeting about 1 hour prior to the start (=18.00) according to a statement by Smedernas racedirector, on a question why the track was not inspected earlier, but that nobody had any complaint on the track then. You should also realize that when i arrived around 18.30 the trac was very wet but dried up considerably after the track team had put on new dry material. It wasnt wetter then 3 weeks ago against Vetlanda. Another statement from Smedernas Team Manager, Bosse Jansson said that the track was ready at 19.15 but it was not good enough for Holta and Walsek who got the referee with them. Holta and Walasek are of course entitled to have an opinion but should accept that the home team team want to have the track graded in a certain way. So they would have two options either ride and try to make the most of it or dont ride. Of course the safety is very important but if the track is safe enough for the home team then it should be the end of discussions. I still cant understand why the referee chose to listen more on the away team then the home team? I mean for a team like Smederna that dont have the the same amount of stars as Indianerna the preparations of the hometrack becomes even more important and with the complaints of the away team that affected the referee this advantage I think you would be pretty upset as well if Smedernas riders when visiting Vetlanda would convince the referee to prepare the track in a different way then you team's riders want?

an fan written article about when Rune Holta chickens out :mad: :mad: (no offense Anders): http://www.svenskafans.com/motor/artikel.a...354&todo=ok

wow thats allot of questions. i'll do my best of answering them. with level of support i assume you mean spectator levels. In general the level of spectating have increased compared to last season. Although i think Lejonen have had a decrease of the number of spectators. About economics teams rarely reveal their economic situation until its very critical. Question mark is for Ikaros Smederna, Västervik and also Lejonen i think who do have a large sponsor but they have lowered their attendances this season and they had red figures last season with more people on the meetings. I Think Weather and injuries will be a very decisive factor as usual. You can compare for yourself on these links: 2009 2008 As for the Stockholm teams. Obviously i think they will draw some spectators from each other. This year Hammarby have an average of sligthly less then 700 so far and Getingarna about 300 fewer then Hammarby. Sure Hammarby can get back to Elitserien but i think that it will be difficult and will probably take a few years. The best track it depends on what you mean with "best". The easist tracks to get too is, Smedstadion/Smederna Eskilstuna, Kråkvilan/vargarna-Norrköping and Possible Orionparken/Rospiggarna-Hallstavik. For Eskilstuna you would have 3 airports to choose from (Stockholm Arlanda about 100km), Stockholm/Nyköping-Skavsta (about 80km) or Stockholm/Västerås-Hässlö A(bout 53km) The two latter are only flown too by Ryanair while Arlanda is the biggest in Sweden with full international air traffic. Eskilstuna and Norrköping also is by far the two biggest cities in Elitserien. In case you would like to stay a day or two extra these two cities would offer the most non-speedway activity and would also provide a wider range of accommodation and food, i know that the pasta restaurant on Kungsgatan in Eskilstuna is qite "popular" for some of Smedernas riders. Linus Eklöfs parents also runs a restaurant in the Town Torshälla about 8km north from Eskilstuna. I have to admit though that havent been to all that many other tracks in Sweden so i dont know really what they are like except track length. About Smederna this season is extremely important whether we will survive or not. If we just got a bit more spectators to the meetings i think we will manage atleast for this season. we got a new title sponsor for the nearest three years, Ikaros which was very crucial for the survival of Smederna. But it depends on the weather (not good so far) and the performance of the team good weather and good performance means more people which means more money. Micke (tarabanko) and Stephen (Zetters) know more about Smedernas chances then me so i think they should answer instead of me. ABout the tv viewing, i have no idea. if they have many or few vievers. it is shown on Canal+ who only sell their sports channels togther in a "package" costing about £17/month. They also provide single meeting purchases view on demand on their website. they signed a 3 year dela last year i think so they'll have one more season to go. more then 20'000 spectators for Gotheburg Gp? i doubt it. There were only about 17'000 last year and i dont think it will be more this year even if the weather is expected to be good during the weekend. A swedish speedway magazine. That would be nice. I remember in 2003(?) there was an attempt, i think they made one edition before they cancelled it. I dont know why people wouldnt buy it. Possible allot of people didnt know about it. There arent even a good online community like this one. There have been a few attempts but disagreements between creator(s)admins/moderators/ l ed to that they were closed.
