What a great night of racing! Wow . Just added some photo's to my website (smiling Krasnikov ).

I've made a couple videos of yesterdays' racing, sound is abit knackered sadly (taken with my phone).

Been to the Roelof Thijs Bokaal practice yesterday... it all looks good . Only been there for 20 mins, but great to see some ice racing again. The Russians were looking very good. Made a couple of photos... Bit pitty that the organisation didn't gave me the permission to make pics on the inside, or even giving me acces to the paddock . Oh well. Ian; please send me a pm with your mobile phone number, we have to meet up this time lol, I'm going tonight and Sunday .

Oh dear, oh dear.... looks like it's all over for Franky Zorn... just seen on his website that he's got a cervical fracture . "Hallo Fans ! Endlich wieder zu Hause. Russ war eigendlich ein toller erfolg, bis ich am Mittwoch vor UFA eine acute Harnröhren infection bekam u. beim training am Freitag in UFA sehr grosse schmerzen hatte. Mit meinem Haus Artzt abgesprochen schickte er mir ein Rezept nach Russland u. musste sofort Antibiotikum einnehmen. Am nächsten Tag ging ich schmerzfrei ins Rennen u. Stürtzte aber im ersten Heat mit Krasnikov u. zog mir wie sich zuhause feststellen lies einen Halswirbelbruch zu. Mein Team hat Spitze gearbeitet u. möchte mich dafür sehr Herzlich bedanken bei allen involvierten. COOOOL ....FRANKY "
