Don’t think Doyle will get one,but too be fair injuries have been his downfall still can put himself about.He certainly put up a better show than Lambert this season,Lambert will get one if he doesn’t qualify though.

Gavan Posted Monday at 06:38 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 06:38 PM Take out Emil and Laguta and is Doyle one of the best 16 riders in the world?? Without injury he would clearly be 9th at the worst this season Hate the idea of ‘we must have new blood’ ….. not for me if they aren’t as good 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if Zmarzlik & Kurtz meet in LCQ1. Kurtz is 2nd which means 11 or 12 points, Zmarzlik is 3rd (9 or 10 points) or 4th (7 or 8 points). The world title would then be decided in LCQ2, the finishing order of 4 riders who cannot become world champion, would determine wether Zmarzlik or Kurtz wins the title! I challenge anyone to explain why this scenario is the best way to score the GPs. Edited Monday at 07:53 PM by szkocjasid 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shockster Posted Monday at 09:58 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 09:58 PM I'd give Doyle a wildcard if they are still against Laguta and Sayfutdinov, but would put those 2 in front of him for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted Monday at 10:05 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 10:05 PM I'm sure Lambert will get a wildcard, Doyle probably less likely if he's the 4th best Aussie. I'm not saying it's right, but nationality makes a difference to who gets a pick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doyle yes, still has the hunger and ruthlessness to mix it up,tai no, I’m no fan of woffinden but I am happy to see him back after injury but I don’t see him as a world force anymore, maybe a wild card for a round to show appreciation for his contribution to the GPs like they did with Gollob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topaz325 Posted yesterday at 10:38 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 10:38 AM Top seven qualify , all the rest have to go to challenge or challenge qualifier ….that could mix it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welwyn Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago (edited) 21 hours ago, topaz325 said: Top seven qualify , all the rest have to go to challenge 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.

This seems good - I much prefer people who qualify for the series than wildcards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See a lot on social media and on here about it, but to my eye it looked ok? Love Wroclaw for the weekend, love the track and the atmosphere was fantastic. 👍 I agree. We were on the first bend, row 9, and it didn't look overly wet to us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
