  2. I've been watching speedway since I was born in 1986 and have seen probably thousands of heats since then, and have been commentating on the sport since 2007. That ninth heat tonight was the best heat I have ever seen anywhere.

  6. I see it the other way... Lidsey’s front wheel rode up Zmarzlik’s dirt deflector

  12. It might be over as a contest but heats 8, 9 and 10 right out of the top drawer. Heat 9 the heat of the season without doubt, stunning stuff.

  15. NOTHING to gain by having Harris there. Look to the future. England have some excellent prospects coming through the ranks. Invest in them and, hopefully, reap the benefit later.

  18. If Jeppesen does get added as the No.8 then I still think -6 is a good bet considering the track is wet and the start has been delayed. As Najjer said Walasek will probably be useless and Klindt is a fan of wet tracks either.

  19. " Bartek has been around while and doesn’t crash much considering the way you think he rides.Its very hard to be safe rider in Speedway so much depends on other riders." I think most probably Bartek intimidates some riders, that they know he won't pull out, once he decides he is coming through on the inside.

  20. Hello I'm a postie and don't really think the packaging has anything to do with delayed deliveries. At my office there are probably around 85 staff and for the last week we have had 40+ people off with Covid so unfortunately some people will receive mail late and there's not a lot we can do about it we are trying our best but we just don't have the resources, and I'd imagine it's the same up and down the country. but hopefully things should start to improve in the next week or so.

  22. What is the point of taking Harris, he would only be having 1 ride each day as Bewley will be taking the majority so might as well take Kemp.

  25. Chris Harris would have been a better option. Experience is key in these pressure events. Bomber is also a proud Brit, he would put it all on the line.

  27. Zmarzlik was offered up at 12 points tonight, bet you’d of got heavy odds on him to score 3 points from 5 rides!

  28. Well the ref disagrees with us all. Can’t for the life of me believe Zmarzlik was at fault.

  31. If a team is allowed to dominate by signing the best riders, it doesn’t make it a league victory, but more an extended victory parade. Whilst Poland can boast of having the best riders, it doesn’t mean it has the most exciting racing or most thrilling finals. The British premier/championship finals are far superior imo. The Swedish league is a sorry excuse lacking anything of interest. Just riders turning up for a pay cheque.

  34. bet365 have paid us out already on the handicap. Good from them to not try and kick up a fuss like other bookies have done on the Speedway this year.

  37. It says on the Berwick website a link will be posted on the day of the event for the pay what you like deal. I'm assuming this is in case of bad weather and making sure that it goes ahead. Better than having to make loads of refunds imo.

  41. Bartek has been around while and doesn’t crash much considering the way you think he rides.Its very hard to be safe rider in Speedway so much depends on other riders.Crump,Doyle,Pedersen all had serious injuries that just the nature of the sport.Im sure the riders don’t give it a thought or they are in the wrong sport.Look at Adams and Gollob rode the sport for 20 years and both seriously injured “playing about” after they finished.Air fences have reduced the injury risk somewhat,Tai at the weekend being a perfect example.Hate to think of what his injury would have been before they came along.We just have to enjoy what we are watching and wish the riders well.

  42. That is the the reason Bartek is double World Champion though,you don’t win by pussy footing about.Tai won’t win another Championship riding conservatively.As for injury it could happen to any rider at any time it’s part and parcel of the sport.I don’t think Bartek has been quite lucky.

  44. After the disappointing meeting from ZG, this was a meeting full of drama and great heats. Gorzów's track has been slated a good few times this season but it was pretty damn good last night. Some wonderful performances from Kołodziej, Woźniak, Holder, Thomsen and Zmarzlik. The scenes of celebration were also great to see. When the underdog comes back it's always entertaining. Yes, it'll be an easy overall win for Leszno tomorrow no doubt, but fair play to Gorzów, and their fans, for making the 1st leg a pretty outstanding meeting under the circumstances.

  46. We had this system with the D, C, B, and A finals during the 1990s SGP Series. It was also used for a long time in ice racing, but I did not like it. Last year's points system was the best we ever had in the SGP! Every point counted.

  47. A Final 25, 21, 18, 16 B Final 15, 13, 12, 11. C Final 10, 8, 7, 6. D Final 5, 3, 2, 1. Those who have done the best on the night head to head against everyone else gets rewarded with the "big points".. And there is an extra reward in every final for winning it.. And the overall GP winner gets a decent amount over second but hopefully not enough to have the series over by half way due to an unassailable lead if he wins a few.. And, which will please the FIM, the GP winner is the one who crosses the line first in the final.. And the fifth race for everybody would be crucial to their final points scoring as the vast majority of the field would still not be sure of which Final they will race in, meaning a tense last four programmed races ideal for TV.. Then you can add four finals with the most evenly matched quartet of riders from qualifying up against one another...

  48. I think I could sign up to a 4 final formula. Top 4 from the 20 heats to the A final, the next 4 to the B final and so on. Then award WC points as per this year's system. This would satisfy both arguments. Every race would count in that riders couldn't relax too much as the odd point could make a difference of 4 places or more. And the winner of the A final would always get the most points. Also, someone crawling into the latter stages couldn't still win the meeting. I think there's some real mileage in this.
