  1. Gutted for Grudziadz not to win that one. What a change around from 12 months ago when they were smashed at home something like 28-62 Can only see ZG at home beating Leszno in 2019. They will need their 1-5 to beat up the Leszno 1-5 as they will loose stacks of points against Smeketa & Kubera
  2. Grudziadz v Leszno Best match of 2019 so far (that I have seen) Put top riders on well prepared tracks and this is what you get. Every rider deserves credit for that. Breathtaking stuff.
  3. Not a great SGP but BZ did prove that the track was more than raceable. I don't understand the beefing about the series riders need refreshing in terms of riders 1-15. The SGP challenge gives everyone half decent a crack at getting their. What new names deserve to be in to refresh the series? I would be interested to see who you would drop out of the series.
  4. I think the lack of practice / qualifying will impact Woffinden tonight. Wasn't getting out of the gate very well last night in Wroclaw and with unfavorable grids today could be tough night. I think for some riders qualifying will prove to be very important. Dudek who is probably best gater in world has got 2 x grid 2s with the wildcard and Lambert inside him. So in effect he's more or less got 3 grid ones. Probably make the same case for Laguta who again relies on his gate so qualifying for him I expect is a big deal
  5. That's a great line up. SEC looks really good this year. Shame UK doesn't have a round. Great to see that line up at Belle Vue Madsen, Pedersen, Laguta would be my top 3. Not sure what order but if G Laguta can ride like he did against Wroclaw last night he will take some stopping!
  6. Any thoughts on what makes it such a crud track? Just watching some old stuff on YouTube and it seems that any attempts to ride a wide line are misguided. What a waste of effort to bring the 15 best riders in the world together to race on a track that is likely to be horse s***
  7. I think potentially ZG could beat them at home but only by a couple. I thought they used their tactical subs poorly leaving Protisewicz isolated twice. Also Leszno track is a bit too wide for Nicki's trademark back straight drift to be fully effective. Even though the Leszno team is super strong their is a lot to admire how well they ride together as a pair. Even when they miss the gate the riders tend to sort it out in the first bend and storm through. Must be amazing for young Brady Kurtz to be a part of
  8. Agreed. Never heard of him before this year. I think he's the most exciting rider in the league. Seems to just go for absolutely insane dives up the inside of riders. As you say the pass on the Holders?! That was just heroic. Just wildcard him in all GPs for the laugh!
  9. I'm only kidding about WADA. Then again I am a bad loser so I'd still do it. He was so good though especially in his 5th race. Hope he gives Lublin that extra fire power they lack and they can avoid relegation
  10. A bit of buffering at the end but well watchable (even the bad camera angles!!)
  11. No surprises that Chugonov took a max Looking more and more like a future world champion.
  12. Probably the only positive Czestochowa can take from that gubbing
  13. Incredible stuff. He lines up that move a lap earlier as well. Just incredible Unfortunately Emil seems to struggle in SGP. Don't think he is particularly suited to smaller tracks. Even when he has a good meeting he invariably starts slowly and bows out at the semi final.
  14. Does anyone know why BT Sport still haven't got the Warsaw SGP on catch up?
  15. I get that - but its one match a year. SGP your getting so much more. Also, watch some of those old matches on Youtube. The racing was pretty dreadful I don't mind it adds to the drama on the night. The progressive scores keep ticking over though so Dudek leads the 2019 championship which seems fair to me
  16. I doubt most people prefer the old system. I would like to see the SGP final be scored 6-4-2-1 so a bit more reward.
