small track, 165m but quite wide I've been told.

Thought Ullevi was getting a new athletics track?

Because they are two of the most supported nations and their stadiums are smaller.

How can they guarantee its not going to rain though? Temporary tracks can't cope with the rain.

Surely if they were equal it should go on when they met each other then in the qualifying?

I thought they were only putting temporary tracks in stadiums with roofs now? I was one of the unlucky ones there when it was called off after a few heats.

I gather Jason had two wins, two exclusions and an engine failure. He is only 13 and this was his first ever meeting. He is very fast though, he has set times not far off Elite League pace on his own at Belle Vue but just doesn't have much racing experience at the monent. Next year he will be allowed to do Academy League though.

Tickets came today. Don't know if this will be any use to anyone but we have one spare ticket due to one of our party not going now, back straight front row block D2, cost £30 can have it for £20. Might be able to use it to get in and sit elsewhere or in the standing section whatever.

Howcome, Jon Cook and Martin Dugard not promoting it anymore?

Got an email my tickets were dispatched yesterday.

Also admitting afterwards if it hadn't been Gollob in Poland he would have layed it down anywhere else.

I think DK4 (Danish) have a live internet feed but its not free anymore you have to pay a year subsciption.

You can watch highlights from the GP on SKY Anytime on thier website.

No he's not that is old and has not been updated with this mornings press release.

Screen withdrawn with aggrevated shoulder injury, don't know who will replace him, presume Doolan will replace him as Stead withdrew last night.

Can anyone tell me who holds the track record at that track?

About 5:15.

Apparently Hampel is definatly not riding so at least PK or Laukkanen will be in for him, if PK is injured then Laukkanen will be next, if then Jonsson pulls out who is next reserve, Sullivan?

Nicki has been a class above everyone this year, made a mistake in that semi and was beaten fairly. Then made himself look a right prick complaining to the referee. Bloody producers missed what was happening afterwards through, could see the crowd going mad in the background.

It's a dual cam engine, been using it all year. GM bottom half and hyprid top half.

Not a bad GP tonight, some decent racing even though the track was slick. Nicki Pedersen made himself look a right idiot, complaining about a little bit of hard racing from Andersen when Nicki normally gives it out worst! Before the semi finals Pedersen was 1/4, Gollob was 5/1, Andersen 7/1 and Crump 10/1. Decided to put a fiver on Gollob, Andersen and Crump, Pedersen didn't get through and I had 3 out of 4 chances to win on decent odds and the only one I didn't have money on won, Adams!

What do people think about the chances of a GP being in Russia with all the big money being thrown about over there?

I thought Seetickets are only selling to the Brits, they are not selling to the Germans etc thought they had their own over there? Seetickets were probably only given a block in each price band and more Brits are going then expected.

We are hiring a car from Dusseldorf airport, Ford Focus £40 for two days so £10 each, cheaper then getting taxi's and trains. Staying in Essen.

They are coming from the same people that did the Cardiff tickets. You won't get them until about 2 weeks beforehand.
