Ok, for some reason I thought that the number was the reason, didn't realise that it meant the position. All makes sense now, actually a pretty good snippet of info saying the pos that was riding on! Cheers

Hi guys! Can some of the polish friends pelase tell how do I read the polish heat by heat results on sportowefakty? In the UK X stands for exclusion, F for fall but in poland everything is a w/?? Thank you in advance.

Think it's that he escaped serious injury... Has already asked when he can ride again ( 4 weeks)... Henka says he cant imagine how bad it actually could have been and that small fractures in his ribs but no damage to the spine (= rygggraden?)

077.9.1 Riders' scores At the conclusion of each meeting, a Final Meeting Classification will be produced, showing the Grand Prix points achieved by each participating rider. Grand Prix points will be awarded to the each rider according to his race points scored during the Main Event (Heats 1-20), or according to his placing in the Big Final (Heat 23). Race points scored during the Main event will be awarded on the following basis: • For first place – 3 points • For second place – 2 points • For third place – 1 point • For fourth place – 0 points • Riders disqualified or failing to complete a race for any reason score no points The total race points scored by each rider at the conclusion of Heat 20 will be credited as Grand Prix points in the overall classification. However, no additional race points will be awarded to riders participating in the Semi- Final races (Heats 21 and 22) but those riders taking part in the Big Final (Heat 23) will be awarded the following Grand Prix points in place of (and not in addition to) the race points achieved during the Main Event: • First place in the Big Final – 25 Grand Prix Points • Second place in the Big Final – 20 Grand Prix Points • Third place in the Big Final – 18 Grand Prix Points • Fourth place in the Big Final – 16 Grand Prix Points In the case of a dead heat, the lowest riding number jacket will be the betterplaced rider.

any idea how Katajisto did in the 3rd quali. He was out for a month after a road accident, but came back two weeks ago. He's regarded a the best prospect in Finland that still is in 80c. And will be for a year or two.

I have to say that after realising that Laukkanen would ride a second rerun I wasn't that sure he'd make it. He lost points in the prelis to both the Russians, and what really surprised me to HEFENBROCK?! He made, thats the important part.

Yes but this is a qualifier... Hole different ball game!

http://70.85.103.141/launch_speedway_145.html Kolodziej and Laukkanen to ride for 3rd, others for 5th and 6th I think. Gotta to go and book a ferry for August....

I remember watching a video from Elgane about ten years ago... They'll run enough reruns so that everybody meets everybody. Not sure how, but I think they'll do the re-runs.

Joonas Kylmäkorpi wont probably be riding, his collarbone injury is really bad. Jyri Palomäki wont get his cast off until next friday, so maybe Tero Aarnio will get a chance after all...

"The SML (FIN) had withdrawn Joonas KYLMAKORPI (SML) N° 3, injured, and had no rider to replace him. Consequently , the CCP Bureau offered the place to the DMU (DEN) who nominated Henrik MOLLER in this meeting." No finns in the GP next year then....

Kaj Laukkanen is the Finnish Champion of 2006! Éverything went as "planned" until exiting the first bend of the final. Laukkanen pushed Nieminen a bit wide which allowed Hautamäki to almost pass both of them. Laukkanen entered the 2nd bend first as Nieminen decided for an all or nothing move from the outside of Hautamäki. It didn't work as Mäkelä got pass Nieminen as well. Nieminen simply walked pass Mäkelä on lap 2 but he never got close enough to Hautamäki to make a move. Happiest of the riders were probably Mäkelä and Hautamäki. Kake was VERY disappointed and this wasn't the first for Laukkanen, in fact it was his 8th finnish title.

I've been on masarnu.nu practicly all day, getting a bit confused...

Just det, du har rätt.

5+1 from 1&2 6 from third unless a swede goes through "through the ranks" then 5+1

Both Finns to go through if they ride on their current level. Kylmäkorpi should do it easily, Laukkanen might struggle. Hope for the best!

I checked it first... I guess I'll have to wait for the star to appear....

Heat times??? Anyone?? Need them quick...

The Individual Finnish Championship will be contested next saturday 1st of July at Seinäjoki. Eight riders have been seeded straight in to the final on saturday: Juha Hautamäki KMMK Kaj Laukkanen SeMK Tero Aarnio KMMK Juha Mäkelä KMMK Joni Keskinen SeMK Rene Lehtinen SeMK Kauko Nieminen SeMK Joonas Kylmäkorpi VRT (participation depends on the state of his collarbone injury) 24 riders in total wanted to ride, so there's a qualifier on friday the 30th of June at the same track. Riders in it are: 1. Jari Mäkinen PirMM (not riding) 2. Jani Eerikäinen KarMK 3. Pekka Valo SeMK 4. Jan-Erik Korkeamäki KauhjMK 5. Teemu Lehti KMMK (not riding, fell last tuesday, length of injury confirmed next wednesday) 6. Juho Ruuska HjMK 7. Janne Nyman FMS 8. Aarni Heikkilä FMS 9. Aki-Pekka Mustonen VRT 10. Kalle Kivistö SsMK 11. Petri Koskela PMK 12. Marko Suojanen PMK 13. Petteri Koivunen SeMK 14. Mikko Koskinen SeMK 15. Toni Stenberg KMMK 16. Markku Autio KauhjMK Jyri Palomäki is absent because of foot injury, and Tomi Reima apparently hasn't enrolled because of official selection. Mikko Mäki-Hakola has been appointed as the referee of the meeting. He's the least popular ref in the sport, and numerous attempts have been made along the years by the riders to have his license revoked. A few riders even took this case to highest of the highest level after last season. And the result, MMH is the top dog at the pinnacle meeting of our finnish season 2006. What to expect? Numerous burned out clutch plates and more tape's exclusion's then there's been so far this season. The tapes are gonna be held looong...

I don't know really, but in my books we've already seen David Ruud. He'll never be a world beater, but has a chance to build a good career around Europe. Same goes for Ljung, alltough I'm not sure about how good his career will ever be... But what do I know...
