There was noticeable dust from heats 1-4, Mr Dickson explained track prep prior to heat 1, then as he said he would watered the track after heat 4, this arguably left it a little too wet, especially in turns 3 & 4. I was stood on turn 1 and didn't get bothered by any dust at all during the whole night and I'm the first to move at the first hint of dust hitting me. The only place I saw any dust was when it was heading towards turn 2 and the pits, so @tellboy could have moved to literally any other part of the stadium to have avoided it.

The other risk is, have we peaked too early? 2023 we did and ran out of steam at Peterborough while chasing 4th spot, last year we ran out of steam after we made the final, after the celebrations on track after making the final I did think that was a bad sign. Fricke is a pretty safe rider (despite heat 6), if injury were to come I'd chances are it to come from elsewhere (although I appreciate you can never predict injury) and then you're in the realms of Kerr, Batchelor, Sedgmen etc. for your guests and they can particularly blow hot and cold.

It's a tricky one, first of all will he be allowed to return to the UK by his Polish club, if no, decision made, but if he is, a broken neck must be a tricky one to come back from mentally... for me, I think yes, get him back in, R/R has worked particularly well for us, but it only takes a rider to have an off night and then you're in trouble.

Eurosport, terrible professionalism.

I just checked on my Virgin box and to add TNT it was Β£25 per month. -
It's quite shocking to see that picture and know that heat 15 was completed especially in light of the incident with Craig Cook at Edinburgh with the photographer, where the police even got involved, what the referee was thinking in allowing that to happen is quite staggering! SCB Reg: 05.1.3 Neutral Zone Outside the safety fence a Neutral Zone, as designated on the Homologation Certificate is required, to which there must be no access.
