I'd looked forward to what I thought was going to be a superb racetrack and meeting all week. What a pity Wroclaw decided to try to doctor the track to outsmart Leszno. In the end it backfired. Woffy and Magic were both unable to win races and it cost them dearly. With those two on top form, I really believed Wroclaw could have easily scored more than 50. But this brings into focus an issue that I honestly feel needs action on. Poor track prep is so widespread here in the UK it's accepted by all with hardly a whisper of complaint and certainly it never results in action from the authorities. Yet in Poland, Wroclaw had already been punished after their match v Gorzów when the track was deemed not to meet requirements. I'm surprised they didn't learn from that. My own view is that they should be fined heavily for last night. The best track in the world produced the worst racing of the season, and it was all down to human action.

Be interesting to see how Drabik performs tonight after pulling out of the Silver Helmet meeting at Grudziądz last night due to stomach problems... Wrocław really need him at his best to have any chance...

Right now I'd say it's the best in the world. I was there for the GP and it was quite phenomenal. Great racing tonight too.

That's it's official capacity. Last time I was there 3 years ago for the SEC final meeting, there were nearly 18,000 in the place..!!

Is there a crowd figure yet for Ostrów? Sportowefakty reporting a "full set of fans" which would indicate 15,000 if true...

Come and join the Continental Speedway Facebook page. Not only will you get links to every GP, you'll also be able to watch all televised Polish matches live and also afterwards through the meeting videos section...

Just to answer my own question, I see TV3 Sport have it listed. Thanks!

Just out of interest, is this live on Danish TV tonight and if so, does anyone know which channel please?

I suspect Hampel may be under more pressure. Older and declining, while Kurtz is much younger and can potentially improve a bit yet..

As late as May? I'd say it was obvious from the end of last season...

Thanks! Much appreciated.

Can someone explain in simple layman's terms exactly how the playoffs will influence things for next season? #Torun are already relegated. # Gorzów will race the winners of Nice 1 playoff between Rybnik and Ostrów? And the winners of that will stay/come up to Ekstraliga? Or what? #What about the scenario for Nice 1/ League 2? Who races who and what happens there? Thank you in advance!

He mentioned he got an injection for his injury from the ZG doctor.

Any idea of the attendance at Wroclaw? Looks full to the gunnels.

Not sure, only came across it yesterday. It would be nice to think so though...

Speedway from the Gods!!

That had to be one of the bravest rides of the season right there!!

That looked like AJ of yesteryear in heat 7. Fabulous!

Just as predicted...

Yeah, I'm used to that. Getting fired up for it now!

Having said it had got worse, the latest forecast now says sunny all day! Will I pack a cagoule or not....Nah, shorts and t-shirts only I reckon !!

I assume Sunday is the reserve date if the weather doesn't play ball on Saturday? It is now looking quite ominous with thunder storms possible all day Saturday.

Haha, indeed.
