  1. Actually I think Laguta has come out of his comfort zone. His manager says there has been a difference since Laguta winning Prague. Certainly he is chasing with a view to take on a pass. He went round the outside of Freddie last night…… brave man.
  2. The last half the meeting was good racing, but half a meeting wasted waiting for the track to come to the riders. This is the world championship, the pinnacle. The riders deserve something better, the fans who have paid good money to be there deserve something better, the tv viewers having paid good money to view deserve better, and so do the sponsors of the event and riders alike. Malilla is a better race track then we got last night. I know track staff will have worked very hard to get any racing on, and I appreciate that, but it would take not a lot of effort from a load of juniors doing different racing lines for 10 or more laps just to help the track along.
  3. I think tonight has highlighted the fault in the scoring system like it’s not been highlighted before.
  4. It might annoy “us” if a procedural point is mentioned more then once, but what if someone new was watching (which we all wish). Repetition for emphasis is very useful in such cases.
  5. Just send out 4 riders at a spacing so they don’t get filled in, rider different lines for 10 laps, job done.
  6. Why don’t they send some riders out and develop the track a bit. Madsen big loser there.
  7. Nice tribute to Phil Rsing from Scott and Charlie in the studio. Prostate cancer I heard, if you over 50 go get checked.
  8. Have the meeting somewhere else and it would be far away for most of the country. Manchester is well placed for the national M-Ways
  9. You can imagine the rush for the second night when the final positions are determined and the rostrum is filled. Could be someone who wants to see both nights is restricted to Friday only. Doing the way they have, a ticket for a double nighter means the true fans get to see both nights.
  10. So to see the worlds best it is very good value. When speedway dies in the uk we have to treasure certain race tracks, NSS is one of them. The Phoenix will rise from the ashes.
  11. Is the price shown for 2 nights racing, I can’t see options for the Friday or Saturday. If it price for 2 nights it’s a bargain. If it’s price for one night it’s still going to be value for money.
  12. Ove Fundin (no brainier for me), Peter Craven, Igor Plechanov, Peter Collins, Chris Morton. All value for money riders.
  13. I just read on speedwaygp website that after discussions with local authority another 1000 tickets been released for sale, but they don’t think many will be available for entry on the night.
  14. What would the crowd be for a league meeting pre COVID?? For a league meeting during COVID restrictions, have they also restricted fans to only certain parts of the track?? Have restrictions eased in Sweden, or the Manilla area of Sweden, that would open up to more spectators. I just trying to think of reasons why it could be different.
  15. The story goes the Saudi company Aramaco (nothing to do with oil) has just invested £130 million over 5 years which allows Valentino Rossi to put his VR46 team into MotoGP (he already has Mot2 and Moto3 teams). The money out there.
  16. Ah, so that’s why Lockatev is first reserve for the series and probably come in this week for Vaculik. Interesting how this Saturdays No 16 goes on, Aspergen. He has a tough act to follow after last Fri/Sat but what an experience it is for these guys. A handful of points would be good.
  17. So right Ian. One qualified as Euro champ, and Lambert is do I very well. 3 qualify from GPChallenge and Thomson not too bad, KK shows signs of a fight but can’t turn into points, and Berntzon is not ready for GPs. I thinks nexts next entrant from Euros, Mikelson will do ok. Just waiting to see the three from the Challenge. Quality riders in the field, will they shine through or fluff it.
  18. Vaculik was going well last a Saturday, looked like he was going to get much needed points. What should he do now? He could ride this weekend to try to get some points back, but risk it either not working out or even his situation made worse. Or he could save himself for the week after, GPChallenge, and try to get on top 3 to secure his place in next years GP. Whatever, I think he is deserving of being there in 2022.
  19. What you don’t know is that Freddie gave Martin a mobile call on Monday to wish him well. Not everything goes on social media.
  20. If it is weather you thinking about, Hyde Road used to be cram jam full for the BLRC. I know times are different now, but everyone now knows what a race track NSS is and there will be plenty racers there. But there again it’s on telly live.
