That must have cost you a lot in 2006 And by the way I am not who you think I am.

Edited for accuracy.

Was told the hire cost would be immense and with no roof it was likely to be too much of a risk. Personally I thought it would make a great venue.

How to piss off the National Champion and Captain in one go. Iversen fully deserved a wildcard after the performance he has had, this is very poor judgement on those that made the decision.

Perhaps its something that he wouldnt agree too, anyone else gone missing at the same time

Awful GP and that can hardly be called a racetrack, and that has to be the poorest crowd at a GP so far this year.

Complete rubbish, several tracks can better that week in week out and Peterborough is one of them.

I think a lot of the empty seats are down to the price, its just far too expensive, Parken the other year was just a complete joke. I think the GP's have a lot going for them but it is very expensive and its certainly not the riders who are earning out of it.

Good GP once we had run a few heats, not sure Olsen should be in charge of track prep as it wasn't good to start with. Nice to see Holder win and an excellent Final, interesting to see a Hampel and Gollob fall out, didn't appear Gollob was to happy with the outcome or the fans reaction.

Surely the proof if anyone needed it that BSI have let someone make the decision who shouldnt have done. Massive step backwards in my opinion.

Many thanks for that

Can anyone point me to the location of the above final averages for last year please

And not likely to get any better when they serve up dross like that for the first half of the meeting, admittedly it did improve and the last few heats were good but Teranzano isnt condusive to good racing and like a lot of these GP tracks this year provides boring racing most of the time. I thought the incident with Holder and the tapes not going up cleanly was an absoloute disgrace, that race should have been restarted Holder was well disadvantaged.

So basically they should all have waited until Jim Lawrence declared the race officially, which is his decision alone to make. Having been given wrong info Sky made a meal out of Lawrence changing his mind, which to be fair is completely untrue, despite Sky now knowing the full facts they havent corrected the mistake after saying they would. !! Think perhaps in the future everyone should take of who makes the decision - The Referee, especially when its not clear who finished where.

Interesting information come to light since the Final was broadcast The Referee Jim Lawrence DIDNT change his mind in heat 21, sky inadvertently showed the wrong result before the referee had declared it. Whats really bad is that Pearson and Tatum now know they got it wrong on the night having made a meal out of it and havent had the decency to admit they were wrong on Sky.

Cracking advert for the sport but the tactical joker has now run its course its embarassing get rid of it. It would be nice if they staged it every other year as well.

Looks the the FIM rules are as watertight as the SCB BSPA rulebooks are

Can only agree, we were always going to be a distant 2nd, and with Bridger in for Nicholls in the Race Off we might struggle to finish 3rd in that.

If it was at Eastbourne it would be a no brainer but other than that he is hopeless

Complete and utter rubbish, we get this year after year at this venue.

Not according to the referee it wasnt and lets be fair his decisions are generally spot on

The only advantage I can see in running a NL side in 2011 is that it keeps regular speedway at the Showground, I certainly wouldn't be satisfied with just NL speedway and to be honest if the the Panthers are taking legal action over the AGM fiasco I think it unlikely they will get accepted into that.

And the other reason is that to few of our riders can trap consistently. Overall a good final which was very watchable but the bottom line is we came 4th and however much Pearson and Tatum bleat on about Bronze Medals (and boy did they bleat)we still missed out because we couldnt consistently get out of the starts.

Most of the star names think its a joke and cannot be bothered so you cannot really blame the supporters if they follow the same line and ignore it. I loved the opening line by Tatum "its a bit slick", Kelvin its always slick at Vojens.

If they are going to do anything with it why not run the whole show at one venue over 4/5 days, it would save a fortune on air fares and surely would encourage fans to go to them all especially if discounts were offered.
