well it was from an article 5 weeks ago so it isnt made uo today or anything,, they could have lied but ive tried to provide sound reasoning behind it from ana rticle,, your just making a complete guess that ticket sales were so low that they would totally rearange a whole GP meeting that would mess up live tv etc and they are getting paid loads from that ,, plus they are gicing refunds and free tickets so again that is going to cost them the equivalent of low ticket sales anyway ,, they might as well have given free tickets to this if that was the case unless you have some proof of low ticket sales that would cause such an extreme move from them to cancel it ? -

as ive already said it cant be because of poor ticket sales,, they had sold over 10,000 5 weeks ago so surely would d have been heading towards 20,000 on the day which was the same as last year and the sames as the ZKS Polonia Stadium, Bydgoszcz maximum capacity plus they are refunding money AND giving people a free ticket to one of next years so financially they wouldnt be any better off calling it off thro low ticket sales even if they never sold another ticket after the 10,000 they sold 5 weeks ago for me it can be only for two reasons,, the reason they have given which is basically a total c0ck up on their part of the more cynical part of me that Nicki wasnt fit as there had been rumours he wasnt going to take part and had to make a rebuttal of that on the official GP weboster saying he was going to be there so its starnge those rumours surfaced then this happened whatever happened it's a total joke -

from a new article on the official venue site posted in alst day or so i would think Similarly positive about the VELTINS Arena expresses Paul Bellamy, Managing Director of BSI Speedway Ltd: "We have no stadium can find more attractive than the arena." They lie at the heart of a vast catchment area, and offer a professional and modern infrastructure. "Moreover, it has a roof that can open and close them. To make us regardless of the weather. That is when Speedway always an issue. To the Grand Prix of Germany to make a success, we could not risk that Rain us in the parade travels and even in the worst case, the train makes impassable. " so they say the stadium they have means it never has to be called off because of bad weather , yet a day later it is called off because of bad weather -

according to the venues website, an article from 5 weeks ago said they ahd already sold Over 10,000 tickets so sales must ahve been going well and they got 20,000 in total last year so must have been virtually sold out,, Polonia Bydgoszcz Stadium only has a capacity of 20,000 according to wikipedia so i cant think it would make any difference with the amoutn of fans attending especally when TV coverage is included and all the hassle to call it off is a lot more hassle than just going ahead with it if sales were slightly down. And the next event there is 23 october -

i would say he places a lot more importance in a GP than tonights meeting especially as if he wins the GP he goes to the Super Prix straight afterwards to try and win $200,000 for doing just 4 laps -

he is out by the looks of it when ive run it thro a translator Bjarne was let off fortunately from serious crash Bjarne Pedersen was involved in a serious crash on Tuesday evening, when Västervik visited Smederna in the Swedish Elite Serie. The Danish Grand Prix-driver was let off however fortunately from the crash, which happened at first heat. Just as lucky was Smedernas Jonas Davidsson not. He was driven away in ambulance and has after-sayingly punctured a lung. - It was a really bad accident, and I am grateful for that I was let off comparatively unharmedly from it, even though I am rather tender now. I hope for the best for Jonas, so that we'll soon see him on the bicycle again, says Bjarne Pedersen, who has chosen to notify on apologies Wednesday's Elite League Riders Championsship in order to spare the body after the violent crash. Västervik won the match 56-40. Bjarne completed the match and drove seven points home at four heats. -
