  1. His best GP years were 15 years or so ago. He is a gater. He rides like Laguta did prior to 2021…..get in a tight spot and he pulls out. That’s ok if you gate and earn a living, but that’s no good for GP’s. It’s like Berntzon said to Scotty last night “GP racing is a level above league racing”. Kolodzeij is riding for his pension pot. That’s ok, but not in the GP’s please.
  2. Then there is those who would like to see the 2 Russians back. Fricke doesn’t deserve to be in next year but Vaculik does, bad injury stopped him this year.What Nilsson and Kolodzeij will bring to the GP’s……I can’t see it being much. Woffy will get a place The selectors have a tough job anytime, but particularly this year.
  3. Next year Bewley, Lambert and Holder will have improved more. If Freddie can get rid of long covid and Madsen get completely fit and Woffy do what he says he is going to do then it could be a tough season for Zmarzlik. No Russians until complete withdrawal from Ukraine, which isn’t going to happen anytime soon. Remember the list of riders for next year will, traditionally, be announced within 24 hour of the last GP of the year.
  4. They were affordable in 2016 and it paid off because stadium wasn’t not quite full. For a GP it would the the same or even full.
  5. BV can be extended to 9/10k with temporary stands as 8n 2016 for world team championship. Do you think there is 9k at Mallila tonight? I don’t.
  6. So, I watching qualifying, there are 3 tracks, one is smaller so I assume a training track for juniors. There is the GP track, but the third looks about same size as the GP track…. What is that for?
  7. Discovery+ (inc sports) may still do a free month trial. If you signed up today for a trial you will get tonight’s Mallila GP, tomorrow's British Championship, the final GP inTorun in two weeks time, plus any other speedway they doing ie Premier League within the time period. Gives you a chance to see the quality etc for free, maybe you decide to pay for a 12 month viewing contract (currently £60pa, sometimes offers on) sometime before next years racing starts.
  8. If he does it will be amazing. Think he is only one to win 2 GP this year, never mind 3 in a row,
  9. Any news on the condition of the guy who hit the fence in heat 3 (4). Looked a nasty affair.
  10. Looks a nice stadium, but not impressed with the track on what I saw tonight. Is racing any better at other times?
  11. I know there was a bad accident in one of the early hears…… but this is dragging on. Not a bad meeting, but well far from being a really good one. Cerianak impresses me, and Kacper Woryna seems to be doing better this year.
  12. and then there are others who have paid their subscription to Discovery+ and want to see it happen in their homes.
  13. Are they actually the same engine? Ice engine looked different when I saw some televised racing during last winter.
  14. Maybe with the downward economic trend being worldwide, many companies will need to cut their sponsorship budget, meaning riders and organisers will need to cut costs. Stick everyone on engines cheaper buy, to maintain, yet still produce good racing (and 2 valve JAWA did in the late 60's/early 70's) has to be considered seriously. JAWA will still have all manufacturing equipment facilities to run off an initial batch of 50 or 100 units to be tested in competition.
