European U21 semifinal in Czech Republic on Saturday

Art 19.7.3 and Art 16.1 give priority to CL meetings over NDL meetings. http://www.britishspeedway.co/2018_speedway_regulations_online.pdf

No relevance directly, but it shows a more realistic ranking when the number of meetings is disparate.

Peterborough are +5 - home loss, 4 point away win, away draw, two away ‘consolation points’.

Ulrich will not be riding at Redcar on Thursday.

Peterborough do have two ambulances in attendance, however it is a medical decision whether to call and transfer to a County ambulance. Cost does not enter the equation where our medical cover is concerned.

Thanks. The options are a PL only rider of 5.7 or below, a CL rider of 7.41 or below, or RR. Rule out all the riders already racing and go from there.

Average too high

Yes Not the case Yes, but the top three in the averages, not necessarily the heatleaders on the night.

Yes if their average fits - 5.7 or lower

As are Ipswich, Edinburgh, Sheffield and Glasgow

Kings Lynn are riding on Thursday (at Swindon)

It does except for guest replacement for the home No 1 Yes

That’s the route I’d use too - but I thought the main road route might be easier for anyone who doesn’t know the road! The traffic issues didn’t seem to keep too many people away from what was an excellent meeting.

To Cambridge, possibly Whittlesey, March, Huntingdon, St Ives?

Highways Agency website not much help. From Newmarket I would travel via Ely, March and Whittlesey - miss out the A14/A1 completely.

That's not correct. It's simply an astute signing within the rules (Art 19.7).

If anyone is interested in what I've put together showing how the Peterborough team changes this season were calculated please email me at neil@peterboroughpanthers.co

Scott 7.74 Ulrich 7.41 Michael 6.68 Bradley 5.90 Emil 5.04 Simon 4.80 Tom 3.03 Team total 40.60 so 6.94 is the figure

Because there are two different ‘kinds’ of green sheets - immediate changes where there is a team change, a rider gains an established CMA rather than assessed etc, and the monthly revised averages which are issued based on historic data. It is complex, especially when there’s a mixture of rolling and assessed averages and team changes over the month-end. I’ll come back to this later and try and illustrate how Panthers recent changes were arrived at.

New averages were issued on 1st June (based on meetings up to 23rd May) which changed the team total and hence the scope for team changes. Sorry :-)

A guest facility wouldn’t be available as Kennett is not in the top three of the Club averages - RR only to replace him.

Not really strange, it’s the most recent average - that could be quite a while ago if injury or seasons away from the UK are taken into account.

This is nothing new :

‘To be correct’, Rider A remains in a declared 1-7 until replaced by Rider B - there is never an ‘empty place’ in a 1-7
