Speedway GP Qualifiers.
f-s-p replied to teaboy279's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
No. It's runoffs for top3 placings and for the last spots to qualify. Countback on everything else. So if you have a quali that will see top6 advance and riders are tied for second and sixth, you need to have runoffs for both. With a 2 rider runoff for second, fourth and fifth finishers can be tied and decided through count back. -
Speedway GP Qualifiers.

There was a quali in Berwick a few years ago when I think it was postponed directly to monday from saturday and the riders were not allowed to ride in Poland on the sunday. Could remember wrong though... -
What does it take? New APD and softening the fence in the exits?

What ever Olsen gets he deserves. If he gets what you say, fine. But I suspect that includes the lot, its NOT his salary. In all honesty, it's REALLY easy to get in to the SGP. You need to finish in the top3 in the challenge and that's its. It's not about spending money, its about succeeding in the sport. Its not like Lance Stroll or others in F1 where they buy their rides, in speedway its about the sport. Finish in the top3 in the challenge and you're in. And for your last sentence I kind of agree but then again don't. Does every Motogp rider or F1 rider get paid? Or have they bought their way to get n...

there's an euro semi today at Glumso / Region Varde. Any chance of live updates? -
Who cares who finishes 13th by winning a d final? Not sure even the ridera wanted to ride such a heat if they had an off night in the first five.

Still, according to wikipedia that season had 11 different winners in 16 races and Keke only won one. Loram when he was champion didnt win at all. Like you say I see now. I'm with the guy who said it's now as good as it can get. There's high drama for every round as the meeting will see a winner that has deserved it (or not, like in Warsaw when Lindgren gave it away). It's for that one night. Then there's the series for which these "one heat wonders" dont get taken in to count, because like Madsen did, on the night he was only worth the GP points he gathered.

How many races did Keke Rosberg win in F1 when he was world champion over 35 years ago?

Missing a Grand Prix practice
f-s-p replied to Chris116's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
SGP is the highest rank in the World of track racing on the globe. It has first pick of dates. Then FIM takes the other dates for U21's and such. Then FIM Europe takes it's picks. Then national feds pick whats left. So why did Ekstraliga take GP practise dates knowing they were GP practise dates? -
I think its probably the other way around, Krsko is needed in the series rather than Krsko needs the series. Go figure, wouldnt know about fans or media not wanting it.

In a single SGP round prize money is paid by FIM for finishing position, not points. Winner gets about 13k € and a non riding reserve about 2,5k €. It’s public info from the rulebook.

world u21 team final Belle Vue 12th July
f-s-p replied to davidba's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I might have misread it but that one post says we in vetlanda and in the next he’s asking for squads... jep, it’s all about being poor and old ATM. 1475km in a car + flights in four days took their toll. Hard. -
