What was the point in that heat 24? 6 riders go through from one of the ones tomorrow, think its the Slovakia one but I'm not 100%.

Because there were some poor riders in it. In some of the GP's this year 7 points has been enough to get in the top 8 due to fairly balanced field.

So qualifiers are. Andersen Holta Kolodziej Jagus Laukkanen Gafurov should be reserve. So final standings should be : 2 Hans Andersen (Dania) 3 2 3 3 w =11 5 Rune Holta (Norwegia) 3 1 2 2 3 =11 6 Janusz Kołodziej (Polska) 1 3 2 1 3 = 10 13 Wiesław Jaguś (Polska) 2 3 2 1 2 = 10 15 Kai Laukkanen (Finlandia) 3 3 1 2 1 = 10 8 Renat Gafurov (Rosja) 2 2 2 2 2 = 10 14 Lukas Dryml (Czechy) 1 1 3 3 2 = 10 4 Danis Gizatulin (Rosja) 1 3 1 3 1 = 9 16 Sebastian Ułamek (Polska) 0 1 1 3 3 = 8 10 Rory Schlein (Australia) 3 u 3 1 0 = 7 9 Kenneth Bjerre (Dania) 2 2 1 0 2 = 7 11 Bohumil Brhel (Czechy) 1 2 3 0 0 = 6 1 Christian Hefenbrock (Niemcy) 2 0 0 1 3 = 6 7 Stephan Katt (Niemcy) 0 1 0 2 1 = 4 3 Henrik Moller (Dania) 0 0 0 0 1 = 1 12 Mikke Bjerk (Norwegia) 0 0 0 0 d = 0

Laukkanen wins last run off.

Now, Dryml v Gafurov v Laukkanen for last place.

Jagus won the first run off so is through. Kolodziej won the second run off so is through.

Strange they always use heats wins in GP's etc.

Yes I guess so.

I presume there will be a final for the top 4, not that it really matters.

Kolodziej, Dryml and Laukkanen had 2 wins so they go through. Jagus has 1 and Gafurov had none.

Finished as 2 Hans Andersen (Dania) 3 2 3 3 w 11 5 Rune Holta (Norwegia) 3 1 2 2 3 11 6 Janusz Kołodziej (Polska) 1 3 2 1 3 10 14 Lukas Dryml (Czechy) 1 1 3 3 2 10 15 Kai Laukkanen (Finlandia) 3 3 1 2 1 10 13 Wiesław Jaguś (Polska) 2 3 2 1 2 10 8 Renat Gafurov (Rosja) 2 2 2 2 2 10 4 Danis Gizatulin (Rosja) 1 3 1 3 1 9 16 Sebastian Ułamek (Polska) 0 1 1 3 3 8 9 Kenneth Bjerre (Dania) 2 2 1 0 2 7 10 Rory Schlein (Australia) 3 u 3 1 0 7 1 Christian Hefenbrock (Niemcy) 2 0 0 1 3 6 11 Bohumil Brhel (Czechy) 1 2 3 0 0 6 7 Stephan Katt (Niemcy) 0 1 0 2 1 4 3 Henrik Moller (Dania) 0 0 0 0 1 1 12 Mikke Bjerk (Norwegia) 0 0 0 0 d 0 I make it Andersen, Holta, Kolodziej, Dryml and Laukkanen qualify.

I couldn't beleive it when I read that today, if Andy Smith wants to go to Slovakia or Hungary to do a qualifer then he should be allowed! It's ridiculous that Middleditch has decided on Richardson and Kennett instead. Whats the point of having qualifying from the Championship of Great Britian, might at well just do seedings instead!

Nicholls will get a nomination if he doesn't finish in the top 8, thats why he's not bothered about doing the qualifiers. But Richardson won't.

Yep always enjoyed going to Vojens.

I booked mine through seetickets.com British site that did the Cardiff tickets.

Ridiculous, both times Crump was well in front looking straight forwards, they were trying to go round the outside through a gap that wasn't there. Crump probably didn't even know they were there. They should of shut off, like Crump had to when he got squeezed out by Lindback.

I think Crump would of given Hans a run for his money if he hadn't had gone so wide on the fourth bend on that first lap.

I know a Belle Vue official had £50 on Andersen at 10/1.

Can't see any other threads on this yet. As predicted by most Andersen wins. Skybet stopped taking bets on him. Only Crump from the top 10 makes the final even though he was struggling early on. 41 point lead, might as well give him the trophy now! Adams and Hancock did a 'Nicholls' and blew it in the semi.

I've not received them yet but I've got 2 for sale (due to 2 of our party not telling me they had got their own tickets!). They are standing tickets and cost £23 each. Will sell them both for £40. Please email me at rbecking@yahoo.com if your interested.

What does it matter none of them are going to get picked anyway!!!

Quite easy to get a train from central London to Reading station, probably take about 30 mins. Will probably be easiest to get a taxi then to the track, don't think it would cost that much. Have a look here for trains : http://www.thetrainline.com

I did three bets, Crump, Hancock and Hampel, so had 3 out of 4 chances winning in the final. Obviously delighted Crump won but he won me the least amount of money.

Practise it not open to the public at Cardiff. Even if anyone does look quick it doesn't mean a thing tomorrow.

I've done Hancock at 10/1 which is good.
