racers and royals

Business end of the season !! Spread for Wroclaw GP Saturday 31st August start time 6pm UK time Zmarzlik 14 - 16 Lambert 13 - 15 Lindgren 13 - 15 J Holder 13 - 15 Bewley 11 - 13 Michelsen 10 - 12 Madsen 8 - 10 Vaculik 8 - 10 Kubera 7 - 9 Janowski 7 - 9 Dudek 6 - 8 Fricke 6 - 8 Lebedevs 6 - 8 Wozniak 3 - 5 Huckenbeck 3 - 5 Kvech 2 - 4

Why ? Because i think he’s based in Leszno which is a flight over here and back for an away meeting which probably wasn’t high up in his priority. We will never know but injured one day and riding the next leaves a funny smell.

Anders Thomsen is the wildcard. reserves are Jakobsen and Mads Hansen.

No

Not sure how you can say that Kubera and Bewley may have already qualified as they are out of the top 6 and therefore have it all to do. to answer your question if anyone pulls out of the line up the next in line from the 4 qualifiers were Lidsey Vaculik Brennan Jakobsen The FIM could decide that a rider is promoted from the same round that the rider who drops out qualified from.

Semi- final draw 1st legs Tuesday 3rd September lejonen v Indianerna Vastervik v Dackarna- live on Premier Sports 2 2nd legs Tuesday 10th September Indianerna v Lejonen Dackarna v Vastervik

So to sum up Lampart rode Sunday in Extraleague. Monday ill and rode Tuesday for Torun U 24. Brilliant !!! What a farce. Rew no better rode today for Leszno U 24 team.

Lampart riding at the moment for Torun U 24’s - what a joke !!!!

Rew riding in Poland right now for Leszno U 24 team - what a joke !!!!!

Thursday’s match line-ups Region Varde v Grindsted Region Varde 1 Blodorn 2 Sorensen 3 Berge 4 Miskowiak 5 Heiselberg Grindsted 1 Prem Pawlicki 2 Chmiel 3 Pollestad 4 K Bjerre 5 Thorst

Piotr Pawlicki has been replaced tonight by Pawel Przedpelski for Piraterna.

If you think no other league puts up with riders missing meetings you want to take a look at the Swedish league. RR was used 37 times in the 56 regular season matches and 3 teams Smederna, Rospiggarna and Piraterna used it in 50% of their matches.

Confirmed teams from around 5.30pm UK time and live updates from 6pm Indianerna v Piraterna https://ta.svemo.se/Public/Pages/Competition/DrivingSchedule/CompetitionLiveResult.aspx?Branch=Speedway&Columns=CompetitionInfo,Branch,Name,Organizer,FromDateShort,LiveResult&DateFilter=TODAY&pagesize=10&IsArrangeable=true &ShowSearch=true&Style=SvemoWebsite&CompetitionId=16311 Dackarna v Smederna https://ta.svemo.se/Public/Pages/Competition/DrivingSchedule/CompetitionLiveResult.aspx?Branch=Speedway&Columns=CompetitionInfo,Branch,Name,Organizer,FromDateShort,LiveResult&DateFilter=TODAY&pagesize=10&IsArrangeable=true &ShowSearch=true&Style=SvemoWebsite&CompetitionId=16310

Dackarna fans wondering if Kurtz rides tonight or if it’s RR for him- if it is RR all can take a ride.

Peter Oakes contacted Kelv during the last match and told him he was wrong and 1 v 4 this season and he has completely forgotten and repeated it tonight- and Olly Allen is just as bad.

Not announced yet but Bydgoszcz can’t ride on Saturday( Huckenbeck) so that will be on Sunday 1st at around 16.30 local time and Poznan will be on Saturday 31st i reckon at around 16.30 local

Ostrow and Rybnik

Yes- will be a decent crowd but not a sell out. Bydgoszcz v Ostrow likely to be on Sunday as well now.

Smederna have named Drabik at 3 but will not use him- it will either be RR or Tungate rides in place.
