Wildcards to be announched soon. Probably tomorrow.

Harris looked quite desperate. Suffered mechanical failures in two of his heats, also in practice. He is missing serious focus due to his speedway commitments I think.

The reserves will by the way be provided by the MFR instead of the numbers 8 from Olching/Terenzano. FIM changed this rule, just like in the semis.

Today we are in France for the second Longtrack Final in La Reole. Very hot temperatures (over 35+ degrees), so not easy for the riders. Practice went well, no crashes. Don't forget to follow the live results: https://www.longtrack-live.com/event/221/fim-long-track-world-championship-final-2-la-reole.html Wildcard news for the third round in Muhldorf: Martin Smolinski. Jorg Tebbe and Markus Eibl will be reserve. Jannick de Jong still included in the lineup, so I guess Tebbe will move up.

Olching Erik Riss (9th in the Abensberg quali) Rene Deddens (did not take part in the qualis) Terenzano Paco Castagna (14th in the Zarnovica quali) Daniele Tessari (12th in the Lonigo quali)

Any thoughts on the new reserve rule for the Semi finals? It seems that the hosting nation can now use their own riders as reserve.

They put that up because they sold all the normal tickets

De Jong posted a statement today. He had a very small amount of amphetamine in his body, but he does not know how this happened. They are now waiting for more test results.

New update to the Olching starting list: Erik Riss and Rene Deddens are named as reserve.

It was there earlier today. Here is it anyway: 1. Max Fricke 2. Matej Zagar 3. Linus Sundstrom 4. Craig Cook 5. Jurica Pavlic (wildcard) 6. Micheal Jepsen Jensen 7. Matej Kus 8.
