Would agree regarding British Riders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with your second paragraph but not the first. If they're a lot better, then they should have finished higher in the qualifier i.e. the British Final.

SharpenRake Posted 5 hours ago Report Share Posted 5 hours ago Some comments are suggesting that you should use current form for selecting the riders to take part in this year's GP qualifiers rather than from a meeting from last year. Yet the qualifiers from this year's GP qualifying meetings qualify for next year's GP Series. By their logic next year's qualifiers should be picked based on their form next year and not on qualifiers this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly how it should be, I'm not a fan of performances last season determining places for the following season, other than finishing in the top whatever in the GP qualifiers.

Is it not the case that Poland hold their qualifiers round earlier this season though.? I if so when can everybody else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
