I took a look at the problem bends, they are very narrow at the old pits end, 1st and 2nd are as they used to be

2023 GP line up/wildcards
THE DEAN MACHINE replied to eric i's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I think it should be top 3 qualify for next year then next 9 go into GP challenge day after last GP round with the 7 qualifiers for challenge, the GP need to be more cut throat, it’s becoming stale with too many riders just outside the title contenders in a comfort zone knowing they will get a wild card -
Tyre Investigation
THE DEAN MACHINE replied to BuxtonTiger's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Speedway has had this problem for a few years now even with mitas and before that Barum, I can remember tyres down to the skin back in the early 2000 with whole knobbles being ripped off after 2 rides, basso’s tyre looked worse cause he carried on riding with a flat tyre,,it doesn’t matter what tyre manufacturer you use, they will all disintegrate when you do burnouts for 60 seconds which is what is happening -

Harris had belt failure, why does he use belts instead of chains, does anyone in the GP use belts ? -

Maybe eurosport could give Greg Blair a go at commentating, he seems very natural doing it on BSN and on the podcasts he does he is very funny and well versed in speedway too , the other commentator on BSN is good too -

The reliance on tuners shouldn't even be a thing in speedway but it’s the riders who drive it that way, Doyle is riding as hard as ever but clearly his bikes are not going forward the way he wants, woffinden is a fantastic tactical aware rider but imo talks it now but doesn't walk it anymore, you never lose talent and he has bags of it but you do lose belief in yourself and I think that’s where he is now ,in the vojens GP he visibly did a first corner where he waited for the other 3 to get their positions and he was last as a result, that’s not the body language of someone who really wants it, not undermining the other 3 but he should of walked his last qualifying race last night but only got 2nd cause of an engine failure, I also don’t understand woffinden and madsen talking who good they are going to be next year, it’s like they don’t care about this years championship, woffinden especially as he might not even qualify but he knows he will get a wild card pick
