Adam Ellis had a good meeting, his gating was perfect, he dropped a point to Lambert, who passed him in his first ride. Then in his second ride he found too much drive on the 4th turn and lost a further point. The Russian,Chugunov and the Danish rider, Jackobsen both outscored him. So you cannot blame FIM bias if Adam Ellis doesn't get a wildcard pick.

There were a few being used in the U21 qualifier in Eskilstuna today

He looked good in his first two heats 4 points, but he had a heavy fall in heat 12.

The Russian Chugnov could be a wild card on his performance today,he was just caught for the second qualifying place in the run off

Tough on Adam Ellis in the last heat, tried really hard just not enough

Really smooth performance from Lambert

Only 300 people and less than £5 entry fee

Adam Ellis was fast from the start

It looks like a good lineup Saturday at Eskilstuna. I've not seen either of the British riders race before, I will take my flag and cheer them on

Why is there a thread about Woffinden in the Premiership section ? Would it not be better in the international section which is where he rides.

Speedway in the UK would finish without the goodwill shown by the spares suppliers and unpaid volunteers. The sport has not evolved, riders not paid by clubs/ sponsors don't pay their bills. Promoter's run their clubs like used car dealers hoping for better sales next week to pay last week's bills. The whole of speedway's "food chain" is living on scraps. The sooner it becomes a honest amateur entertainment which is its real level the better. It started as a circus act and the clowns are running the show.

INCOGNITO the Swindon Robins were relegated at the end of the 1992 season.

Nobody wants to pay for the poor product speedway has become

It appears there will be a change in the GP line up. Stefan Pletschacher has withdrawn because of an injury recieved in Steingaden on Sunday. His place will be taken by Harald Simon

The Swiss championship was run today the top three was 1st Ronny Häring 2nd Simon Gartmann 3rd Jarno Möri

Good luck to the two British riders, Roger Newton and Rob Irving racing in Champex-Lac this weekend

Nice to see the young Swedes in the top 6 shame that Niclas Svensson just missed out last week

Last season Belle Vue had both, a top 4 team and the 'best' track in the UK, but still not enough supporters came to pay the riders

Martin Hewlett died of a brain hemorrhage not a track crash

My apologies you are correct

The FIM regulations have always stated, no advertising below the knee on a race suit, but like everything else it gets ignored

Nice to see a British representative on the podium.
