Lynn managed to fit Riss in exactly on the point limit, they had 6.10 available. So Rose and Kerr now been replaced by Palm Toft and Riss, so much stronger now.

Completely different ball game now, Erik Riss flys round NSS and so does Palm Toft, at reserve could be unbeaten.

Etheridge Championship average is inflated by his home form, his Championship away average is 3.09. Riss Championship away average is 4.53.

Away Etheridge is 2.73, Drozdz is 1.82

Just been heavy downpour but its hot so will dry

The team riding could have been bit better but it wasn’t dreadful. Etheridge was fast first 2 laps but then started to slow, Fricke was looking for him but Thorsell was all over back of him. The track is so wide with racing lines it is harder to team ride to keep someone behind, if Fricke had slowed more good chance Thorsell could have had him.

Heat 11 from last night

I think overall crowd was similar to last couple of years but there has been a big movement to where people are sitting, the fullest part of stadium now is top tier on 3rd & 4th bendw here the cheapest tickets are. Large portions of middle tier are now empty and looks like they weren't even selling tickets for 6 blocks in upper tier on 1st/2nd bend. Funny enough we bought the cheapest tickets last week in top rows of 3rd/4th bed, when we went to collect tickets we were given free upgrade to sit in middle tier back straight where all the British flags were, ticket sales there were obviously poor and they were desperate to fill the area for TV cameras.

I thought the rule was only used if its an obvious case of a rider falling and staying down on purpose to get a rerun. That wasn't the case with Morris.

Years ago BSI said they always wanted Cardiff towards end of the calendar but could never do it due to rugby fixtures, with the rugby world cup in Japan in September maybe they have taken the chance available to them.

Couple of decent races from Swindon meeting, there were plenty more.

Start delayed to 8.00 and the rain is getting even heavier. Just call it off.

Typical been dry all day and started pouring down at 6.50. Track wet now and looks like rain in for another hour at least. Would rather they called it off then try and start in these conditions.

Most tracks take a few heats to get going, but especially this one first 4 heats or so are always going to be more processional as the grip is round the inside early on, once the dirt starts moving out that’s when the racing lines develop. The 5:00 rain misses too, might be some rain about 7.00 now but that might miss too. Nightmare for the track guys knowing how much to water.

Been no rain at all, might get a bit of rain around 5.00 as we might catch the edge of a band going across but it won’t be much. Fridays Colts meeting started in time despite very heavy rain an hour before start.

Will Rosco be slating Morris again like he did last time.

@Phil The Ace put on Facebook : "Getting alot of stick for my behaviour towards starman over on BSF apparently. And rightly so. I apologise to him and anyone else I offended. If anyone's on there fan they please put on my apology. As I have been banned from there"

Yep of course everyone going to stay around for that!

Poor promotion from BSI this year, stadium is only going to be two thirds full and no fan zone outside the stadium this year. Half an hour before gates open and nobody around when in past it’s been buzzing.

Of all the fuss Poole made about not wearing race suits, why has Klindt decided to get himself a new Poole race suit and not wear race jacket lol.

All been done before and didn’t last, there was Team Exide (Hancock & Hamil), Team Nilsen (Nilsen & Crump), Team Rickardsson (Rickardsson & Polish rider), Team Tatum (Nikon’s Klingberg I seem to remember) none lasted long.

When this happens they have normally changed the programme in some way like the title or time so the recording gets cancelled.

BSI really pricing everything too high, also the semi final at Belle Vue was too high, and the Danish GP is ridiculously high and looks like it could only be half full.

Don't know what happened tonight but it seems anyone who set it to record on Sky it didn't record, BT must have changed the programme information at last minute.
