Looking at it with the previous pic together,i'd say definitely under control. Showboating in front of his home crowd

Funny thing is the thread was going nowhere until you bring it back up

But AJ's two wins were on the temp tracks

Result of the Indoor meeting in Schwerin 1.T.Piszcz(PL) 2.D.Rath 3.T.Busch 4.R.Weis 5.S.Petersen 6.J.Kristiansen(DK) 7.T.Aarnio(FIN) 8.P.J.Larsen(DK) 9.S.Katt 10.M.Nowacycz(PL) 11.S.Colvin(GB) 12.M.Jader(PL) A crowd of 1,200 which the promoter says is too low to justify further meetings.So the future of these indoor meetings is in question.What with Neustadt/Dosse only getting a 1,000 fans last week and that meeting marking the end of their 5 year contract.Fact is though two meetings straight after each other and with basically the same line-up,maybe fans ain't being fooled.At the start,the first couple of years at Neustadt the line-ups were pretty attractive but gradually they are being filled with run of the mill riders.The two day meeting in Kiel is still planned for next year and the line-up should be good.Just hope they manage to make a decent safe track and that the speedway part of the programme is presented in a similar way to the freestyle MotoX. And that about wraps up the German speedway year

Great photos Weter.How many fans were at the meeting?And do you knwo if any meetings will be live on the internet this season,like the World Championship meetings from Ufa last season?

What temperatures have you in Finland then? Just look at the highest mountain in North Germany and it has 53cm of snow and temperature at the moment -8° Brocken We have +1° in Hamburg

Not really worth much though is it.I mean i guess the way it is done is to tot each riders world ranking points up.Plus i guess the best possible team is chosen rather than the most often used team.Look at Slangerup.Much better than Danish Champions Holsted for instance!Plus look at the National teams and Australia are top rather than the team most feel is the best,Denmark who are third.Not very keen on these things as you might guess

Like you say no big surprises.Baltachev doing well on his home track.Didn't do too bad last year in the World Championship and might improve this year.Good to see Bulankin still mixing it with the best.And in Shadrink,Arkhipov,Krysov and i think it was the Khomitsevitch and Ivanov brothers team mate at Togliatti,Karachintsev who Bahnsport refered to as the new shooting star.Well he only just made it through,but he is there

Correct me if i am wrong but the Sidecar blokes were already in Oz or not?They didn't and i suspect wouldn't fly out to ride in the qualifying round unless gauranteed lots of money or meetings.You wouldn't expect Screen,Lindgren or anyone else to do the same.So the situation isn't comparable i suspect

A few important dates on the Danish calendar from Nicolai Klindts web-site.Not sure if they are 100% confirmed.PeterS? Danish Final 1 06.05 Holsted Danish Final 2 08.08 Outrup Danish U21 Final 17.08 Fjelsted

I hope Nicki goes on to retain the title.Quite possible he will,but like i said last year about Crump,it doesn't always work like that.If Nicki doesn't do it i think it will be a complete outsider rather than Crump or Adams.My bet would be Jonsson

Well i will be surprised if 9 teams are in the Bundesliga.I don't know where they will find another 10 German riders from?And it is not just 10,but they need to have a couple of good standard riders as well as juniors.Maybe Robbie Kessler is one option and maybe Polish riders riding as Germans i.e Sekula.Thought i saw that Szombierski was thinking of riding as a German

Stralsund and Wolfslake are back in the Bundesliga
