Apparently broken leg as well, got a good angle from it and some people were sitting closer and speaking to them whilst walking back to the apartment they said there was blood everywhere.

A broken thigh is a broken leg unless you mean the other leg too.

Well I was there and obviously saw a completely different match

There was some decent racing and the atmosphere was brilliant 

Maybe you needed to be there

And congratulations to jack

 

Always said that  its the whole Speedway GP weekend experience which is why  its so enjoyable.

We're off to Prague again in 2 weeks and we couldn't care less if it's the most boring and processional racing ever witnessed. Guaranteed we'll have a brilliant weekend.

Thought it was a bad decision to exclude Lindgren, if they touched it was so minimal. Just encourages riders to lay it down & get a re-run. Lambert was far harder on Bewley in the British final! Should Bewley have laid it down to get Lambert excluded?

Get well soon Jason Doyle.

You cannot just "take someone out", like he did..:D

Freddie could have rode the inside line and left plenty of room for Kurtz...

But instead he elected to do a " block pass", (similar to Lambert on Bewley and one many riders use), but basically got it wrong by, literally,  just a few inches..

Almost a perfect pass, but sadly, for Freddie, it wasn't...

Agree.  Tough on Lindgren.  He was in front, and left plenty of room for Kurtz on the outside.  Kurtz made sure there was contact.

people posting comments about Jason's injury and based purely on over hearing other fans comments, is pure and simply wrong...why not await a factual press release from Jason or his camp.

Boils my absolute pi55.

They announced a possible broken leg over the tannoy in the stadium in Polish so calm your horses.

So some feel the need even without clarification of official or factual input to still post on hearsay...nothing more than attention seeking, each to their own and all that. Ohh the horses are calm, that is based on fact not hearsay!

A forum is for discussion, I see nothing wrong, people are concerned and curious that's all. Don't see why it should bother you. Many people speculated on the US election before any facts were known, that's normal behaviour.

This has been reported from his Polish boss "The initial diagnosis is a hip injury. We don't know yet how serious this injury is or how long the break in our player's starts will be. The entire Włókniarz Częstochowa community keeps its fingers crossed for Jason! We look forward to your return," it said in a social media release." translated of course

so there we have it a nut shell, posts on here said Jason had a broken thigh and leg...now just imagine if some of Jason's family, friends, sponsors, loved one's etc etc had read those comments.

 Sending best wishes and a speedy recovery to Jason, if ever a rider deserved a turn of luck then surely Jason is that rider.

Unlike some, I can't put any blame on Fricke. Nice to hear Dean's take on it...

From the stadium in our section it looked like Doyle got the speed after gating and went to get over fricke but fricke drifted wide and Doyle took avoiding action. If he hasn’t had moved they would have both gone down. If Doyle got past then lambert was next to be a victim of how wide fricke was going. Don’t really know if it’s a blame game or just very unfortunate riding incident. Again, only my opinion!

Couldn’t pinpoint what it was last night but it just seemed flat, like the whole event lacked importance and it felt like riders were just going through the motions, I know they weren’t and I’m sure being there it would of been amazing but as usual discovery couldn’t catch an atmosphere if they tried, the racing wasn’t great but even wasn’t what was missing, well done holder and Kurtz and get well soon Doyle. On a odd note when they interviewed Eric (the pole)in the stands, my first thought was he isn’t a speedway fan, he came across very well spoken with his American accent which a lot of young poles do have because a lot learn there English from tv show friends,then they dragged him out to carry the trophy up to the rostrum, again looking out of place as he trundled across the track, could of been a randem person picked out of the 50,000 but seemed like a bit of virtue signaling to me, watch this space

No blame on fricke, looks like Doyle catches the dirt delflector (again) and it straightens him up, first bend fair decision but no blame on fricke

one concern for me is the state of the track, yes it was smooth but didn't really give many racing lines. 

Speedway is in the entertainment sector, take out the attraction of being entertained and then there's only one outcome further down the line.

 Who ever did the track last night, do not let them anywhere near the Belle Vue track for those GP's/

Dont think Fricke rode anybody wide.He was in front.
