Nu kör vi igen! Efter ett kortare uppehåll så drar vi nu igång igen. Vi inleder på tuffaste sätt med en bortamatch mot serieledarna Eskilstuna Smederna. Under transferfönstret så har vi gjort både frivilliga och ofrivilliga ändringar i truppen. Dessutom så skadade sig Filip under JEM tävlingen i lördags och vi vet ingen status gällande hans skada ännu, men han är inte med imorgon. Vi önskar Filip ett snabbt tillfrisknande! Följande sju förare är uttagna att köra matchen i Eskilstuna. 1.Artem Laguta, 2.Tomas H Jonasson, 3.Brady Kurtz, 4.Szymon Wozniak, 5.Bartosz Zmarzlik, 6.Johan Jensen, 7.Kasper Lykke Nielsen. I morse fick vi dock ett sent återbud från Szymon vilket gör att vi i skrivande stund kommer köra ”riders” för honom. Om det sker någon förändring återkommer vi med det. Övriga fem förare är inte tillgängliga till denna match av olika anledningar. Vi åker självklart till Eskilstuna för att bjuda dem på en riktigt tuff match. Nu kör vi och jobbar för en bra avslutning på grundserien, för att ge oss så bra förutsättningar som möjligt inför slutspelet. #VetlandaSpeedway2018 According to this, if translation was correct, RR for Wozniak and no changes possible as other drivers cannot run this meeting for various reasons. It means no Leon and no Magnus Karlsson either. Any chance to confirm Ghost?

Thanks Ghost.

Leon wasn't just a temporary signing to cover Wozniak's absence?

Sad to hear Rune Holta in hospital with broken leg. Season over for him.

Any idea if Swedish Individual final will be live on TV?

Why no Tai in nominated heats?

Expecting R/R for Protasiewicz and will be interesting to see if Maksym Drabik shows up this time.

Any idea why Drabik missed yesterdays meeting?

Cheers guys

Hmm are you 100% sure? Nicholls is in for Tungate. Isn't Tungate directly above Garrity? And Bewley below?

Who can take Garrity rides?

Poland now pumped up. If they can beat Russians in heat 5, I sense they will not be stopped.

Come back mode on! It will be exciting till the end.

Freddie lucky not to pick leg injury!

I believe Germans are allowed to replace Huckenbeck as he is injured.

Agree again but yet again the problem is money. BSI wants to make money and it only comes from Poland. Otherwise they would not stage all main events like Pairs this year and SWC next year in ... Poland. If it is about promotion of speedway, just make sure finals are in other countries than Poland. What about Pairs 2020 in Manchester then SWC 2021 in Sweden and Pairs 2022 in Denmark? But let's face the reality. BSI will not make enough money that way.

I'm not saying anything about yesterday. Polish riders were not good enough and I agree with all you said. But why can anyone remove World Cup completely only to punish Poland for being too strong?

Everyone loves winning. Is it really the way to punish us for being so strong as a team? To remove teams competition completely and replace it with Pairs?

BSI isn't stupid. They need Poles to be happy. Poland loves SWC.

Tomorrow will be pretty exciting. Plenty of questions come to mind. Will Poland catch Danes? Will GB keep Russia behind? By the way, I heard somwhere that Gorzow will host World Cup next year (yes, World Cup, not Pairs). And that both competitions will be run every 2 years. 2018 Pairs, 2019 Teams, 2020 Pairs and so on. Anyone to confirm? Personally I love this idea!

SWC used to be very popular here in Poland. A bit of bad publicity regarding new rules + Poland playing Chile the same evening, it all caused poor crowd.

Poland playing Chile tonight. Bad date chosen by BSI.

And this is how you should attack from behind when there is a good pair in front of you. Love the way Loram passed them. Class.

Watch it again. Watt gated off 2 as good as Gollob but Gollob rode wide line to let Laguta cut to the inside. For lap and a half looked behind all the time to make sure Laguta is on the inside and in front of Watt and covered outside perfectly to stop any attempt of passing.

Exactly my point. And it is even more difficult then simple ride in pair with teammate after both made the gate and cover the track using fastest lines available.
