In that case, if any rider isn't fit to take his place, his replacement's score counts surely?

I'm probably wise to skip the rest of the season, I may even climb places that way. I did better in the round I didn't take part in.

I fully agree! Actually, I would say I only disagree with about 50% of Ladyluck's posts. When he gets on it there's no stopping him but he is very precise with his posts, never misses a trick and I enjoy most of his posts whether I agree with them or not. On this occasion I agree with him. Shovvy, however, just wants to cause a reaction but then when he does he can't take the flack. Me, well I'm just brilliant.

It's always been a quality looking site but it does look great at the moment and it's good that they are now headlining it Speedway world championships which may attract outsiders more.

And added nothing (but gained plenty) to another's set up about 6 years ago.

I expected Jonsson to do well in Leszno after reading the article on SGP site about his involvement with Blomfeldt. Not because Blomfeldt is necessarily doing anything out of the ordinary (from what I've seen previously, I think he's had his day long ago) but the fact that Jonsson was confident in his equipment. With that placebo effect I expected him to make the final but it wasn't to be. With this one in Sweden he should improve on 5 points but if by the end of round 3 he hasn't done anything I think he should ditch Blomfeldt and start again before it's too late.

I'm pretty certain they would and have always used local time. And of course, as the first GP was in Poland the time difference would be the same for that one.

Again, it had to be said that any rider who has never been so fortunate would be more than happy to wait 20 years or so to become world champion. I remember Erik Gundetsen saying in 1984, "not many people are lucky enough to become world speedway champion but I'm one of them."

I only know because I happened to look on SGP site around 12.50 and thought the draw was early as it was already listed but then noticed it said local time so of course it would be 12.00 here (UK).

Why Delilah?

if you look carefully it actually says 13.00 local time.

Maybe it's his first time?

The easiest way is by the peak. Try his website or SGP website or if you are going to a Grand Prix they're usually on sale there.

I've never watched the pre meeting entertainment. As others have said, I stay in the pubs until 5 minutes before the meeting. Last year the fanzone was excellent and gave those who don't want to be in bars something to see all day. Wouldn't have been quite the same had it been raining though. To me the fanzone and the bars and restaurants were all the pre meeting entertainment you could want.

that would be cool.

Buxton or Jamaica.

I don't think you'll get face value for these as you can buy the cheapest tickets on the day and sit anywhere you like.

Not while he's sponsored by Prodrive you won't.

With regard to the silencers, the general opinion from my experience seems to be that rather than being dangerous they are unpredictable. It may well be that once they regain confidence in what they are riding things will return to normal but nobody likes going into a corner with their mind pre-occupied as to whether or not they will come out of it.

You only asked for 3. Ok I'll play the game this time: Gollob Bjerre Sayfutdinov Laguta Although most of them look too high to me to have much of a chance.

Three of them qualified and the other was the Polish wild card. Where's the confusion? (Holta will always be Norwegian as far as I'm concerned)

Three below par races, one in which he was very unlucky to be squeezed out of 2nd and lost all his momentum, and inevitably, people can't wait to write him off. He won't be happy with 5 points but Gollob had only 6 this time last year on the same track so last night means very little at this point. He admitted he made some bad decisions that's all.

if they were that memorable you would surely know if it was two or whether it was three?

Easy... Tomasz Gollob Jarek Hampel Greg Hancock Just noticed when I try to type Tomasz in my phone it suggests gonads. Gonads Gollob has a certain ring to it I think.

He'll be top of the world until at least September.
