Bavarian

Referee has excluded Lampart

Who's to blame for this crash, Blue or White ???

Don't think he will be selected fro Poland. They have better under 21's and neither need nor want a Russian to ride in their SoN team. Russia could use him very well, of course. Not sure if he will be selected, but as long as he holds both nations' passports he would still be eligible to ride for Russia.

Grigory Laguta ! What a phantastic speedway rider !

Not so. 26-28 after nine heats

all four back for me, classic case of first bend bunching

Nasty accident for young Torun rider Justin Stolp in his very first ride for the First League team.

British speedway should built and keep their own stock of riders. Let the super pro's go to Poland if they wish. There is only limited space from them over there. Keep the others exclusively in Britain and create Your own new stars. If one of them new born stars sometime attracts the attention of a wealthy Polish club, demand a transfer fee for him as long as he is contracted to a British club. This could bring quite some money into British Speedway. Do as they do in other sports (Football), and British speedway will survive and perhaps even thrive again. If You have exclusive use of Your own riders, British speedway clubs can use any night they wish to run their home meetings, weekdays or weekends, just as it suits them.

Come on, man! This was good speedway racing tonight. Leszno wins 55-35 and the fans really enjoy it and celebrate with THEIR riders/team's big win. There is no artificual levelling of teams due to points limits etc in Polish Speedway, and this is quite right so. A successful team won't be punished and don't have to release any of their riders due to a certain low points limit. That's a good thing. See how popular and succesful the Polish team building system is compared to the British.

Big win for Leszno, it's now 48-30 after thirteen heats, but nevertheless a very enjoyable meeting with lots of good racing.

Fair enough, Kasprzak and Iversen are trying very and giving their best. That's all one could ask for.

That 5:1 hurts. Iversen and Kasprzak are Gorzow's weak links. There was no team riding between them and Kolodziej just went by.

not quite, as he was beaten by Pawlicki

great racing again in heat 8 Pawlicki v Zmarzlik

Thomsen is top class tonight.

Gorzow are doing much better than expected ! Very entertaining match so far.

Just now Leszno v Gorzow Heat 5 was a great race !

But even if a match ends 60:30 it does not necessarily mean that the racing wasn't any good.

I enjoyed watching the Polish League meetings tonight. Much better than having to watch Snooker or Tennis, which is shown instead of speedway on the German Eurosport. They never show Polish League speedway here in Germany. Neither do they show the SEC, not even now with so few other live sports during the Covid-19 crisis.

Nico Covatti (= Italo-Argentinean)

Tarnow is a poor team, they have no chance at all against Torun.

Przemyslaw Pawlicki is really off-form this season. But Grigory Laguta in vintage form again this year. He should be in the SGP series.

This crisis is becoming quite disastrous for most professional sports. Polish League Speedway can survive with the 25% capacity crowds plus all the tv-money, but professional speedway in the UK is doomed.

Tony Loader's International Speedway Annual of 1991 has a meeting report (written by Dave Wright) with the results and point scorers for this meeting. NORTH ISLAND SOLO CHAMPIONSHIP December 29, 1990, at Gisborne Awapuni Speedway hosted the North Island Championship with 35 of the 38 nominations contesting a series of qualifying heats staged in dusty conditions the same afternoon. The North Island title again saw David Bargh take control, while Auckland's Chris Martin appeared impressive, as did Michael Long and recent returnee Nathan Murray. Hard-riding Gary Marsh gave an entertaining Performance, in heat 2 giving Geoff Tompkins and Richard Davidson a few anxious moments as he fought a Titanic battle between himself and his machine, while in heat 13 the bike won the fight, slipping from his grasp on the pit bend. Expatriot Brit Graham Wedlake too gave Tompkins a rough time. Wedlake having a rush of blood on the pit turn and bringing the Auckland rider down heavily. Tompkins was taken from the track in the ambulance. Luckily, little more than severe bruising resulted from the incident which also ended Wedlake's night. Bargh and Martin, level on maximum points after taking four rides each, met in heat 19, and a thriller looked on the cards as all four riders entered teh first bend together. However, Bargh emerged in front, and cleared out to a big lead over Martin, taking the chequered flag, and the title with an effortless 15 point maximum. With the dust eventually settling as the meeting progressed, the track was generally regarded by most riders to be near-perfect.
