Nice one Bobby Lambo.

Even though he’s a Norfolk munchkin, you can’t deny that he is right up there now on the world stage

Brilliant to watch tonight..

Speedway, with consequence, jeapordy and a decent prize fund can actually get some decent crowds.

Who knew?...

Witchcraft...

That was entertaining and a perfect example of how good the racing can be and it was good to hear the national anthem at long last. Just a pity that the media are not interested in the UK. Now it is a three horse race let’s keep fingers crossed for Robert next week. I hope he does not sit back and just accept his qualification for 2027 when he is so close to upsetting the odds. Thanks to all the riders tonight who made it such a good meeting.

Someone gave him a nudge......Freddie's out, Dans out, Jacks out........only BZ and Brady left.......you got probably a never to be repeated opportunity.....GRAB IT

Great meeting, enjoyed it, track was good.

Congrats to Lambert, I'm not a fan but a deserved win on the wave of recent excellent form.

Missed opportunity by Brady, with a rare meeting in which BZ didn't get setup right.  Thought Fricke was stiff and deserved a better outcome, he needs to keep finding form to lock in a top 7 or he wont be there next year.

In some ways the weather conditions made this a better meeting.  Slick tracks tend to produce more predictable outcomes.  Here it was who adapted to the conditions prevailed.

Kurtz 109
Zmarzlik 109

So on what grounds has Kurtz overtaken Zmarzlik?  1 GP win each.  Podiums is Zmarzlik 5, Kurtz 4.  Both have missed the final once.  Kurtz has 2 seconds & 1 third to Zmarzlik's 4 3rds.

[Col]

Well I was so glad I was there for that, my third British GP win.  1 for Lambert, 1 for Bewley & 1 for Harris.  Woffinden has won than them combined and I've never seen one.  Woryna is a loon, that move that took Kubera off was ridiculous.

I think you've answered your own question there!

Kvech deserves a wildcard next year on his performances as a reserve.

So you'd give him wildcard instead of Bewley, Holder or Lindgren?

No.  I think they have messed up dropping the challenge result picks down when the top few will qualify automatically anyway.  I'd much rather have Kvech than Jakobsen.  It's a shame Holder being injured and Tungate qualifying will mean no Fricke or Doyle.  Bur I also wonder if Lindgren & Doyle will call it a day at the end of the year.

perhaps for GP's but they are both solid performers at league level

Certainly in front of Lingren

[Fromafar]

That was a very enjoyable GP great track and some great racing.Bartosz was struggling all night for some reason.Got of lightly considering he don’t make final.

[ShanoXtra]

7 GPs and 7 winners.

People will realise next year that we are blessed this year to actually have the best riders of this generation all in the Grand Prix (apart from Nazar) but minus the Russians.

Anybody can turn up and win this year, I would have happily seen this line up (official line up) go again next season.
