Hence why I say I don't know why. It's just a weird feeling I have that he'll do it, because it'll be so incongruous if he did. I'll be pleased for him, even it he isn't good to be in it. At the end of the day it is an oxymoron for anyone who says that the event is stale or that they want change then moan when the true open way in throws up a weird qualifier like Kim Nilsson. Or a decade of Andy Smith :ha:

I don't know why, but I still have a feeling Bomber will do it somehow!!

I've been having the same weird feeling. Almost reminiscent of Andy Smith back in the day!!

I would agree. But I would keep the wild cards. The big advantage of the wild cards is that we don't lose a top 5 rider from next years Championship because of a previous season's injury. Bewley should not be missing from next year's Championship because he was injured and having the old style Challenge would exacerbate the need for them as anyone between 7th-14th who happens to pick up an injury JUST before the challenge would need one.

So what averages are Troy & Kye on?

Announced now.

A Polish rider gets excluded in the re-run for an incident. Obviously very unlikely and the rider in question would have to be stupid (or have his bike pack in, but is in the realm of possible outcomes.

Brennan looking decent there.

That's unlucky. Correct decision but unlucky the bike caught the dirt like that.

This so: 7 from SGP 1 from SEC 5 from GP Challenge 3 WC's The wildcard is to counteract injuries that put people out of the GP Challenge. Imagine if Fricke and Lambert collide in Heat 1 in Vojens, both out of the GP & the challenge a fortnight later as Thomson makes the Vojens final. Suddenly two guys would be out of 2026 through a matter of timing. Admittedly, most of the time those WC's would end up going to the Huckenbeck's & Kvech's of this world but it helps prevent the above, or Zmarzlik being out of the 2026 & 27 World Championship if he get's carted into in an Extraliga meeting in May next year and is out for 2026.

Anybody else's feed gone down? Back now.

MJJ might have just cost himself a place in the GP there

Rye House

Anyone know if the Germans have anyone in the 4th qualifier?
