  1. great rides by kurtz in 13 and vuolas in 14 why no gilkes in 14?
  2. you seem to have an unhealthy obsession with crowd figures, very odd also you clearly haven't been to lynn much this season as its generally been pretty good
  3. not sure its snowflakism if women and children feel threatened and unsafe, bit silly to label it as such as with anything there is a balance to be struck, a raucous atmosphere can only be a good thing as long as people arent going too far
  4. you obviously bear a childish grudge but that's harsh, not sure who else he was meant to beat, he's not at his previous levels any more
  5. getting the best out of 7 self employed riders, some of which may be guests and most who will be zooming off to race for a different team the next day. to make sure they don't just go through the motions and to make them feel that winning actually matters. i'd say thats pretty important and easier said than done
  6. wouldn't blame him for going after the big bucks that ippo can pay but it would be great to see a rider show some loyalty
  7. Thorsell was very good in the SoN, if he wants to ride here he'd be a decent signing even though 'he hasn't ridden here for years'.
  8. Despite how good poole are and all worky's issues that's a bit embarrassing
  9. They have every right to be happy with 14 considering the two clatterings they've already had at Poole this year!
  10. Jan and Anders are both really happy at Lynn. If they move on it will be because of a big fat cheque rather than anything else!
  11. I think what people have said about Sayfutdinov is absolutely fair enough but it's the inconsistency and bans for others which gets up people's noses.
  12. I think you are spot on, the riders are the ones who know the state of the gates and have made starts off them all, and in terms of gate one I always think it's a risk as if you get pinned/ boxed in then it's almost race over on the first bend. As I've said you just have to get the first half a lap right whichever gate you select. I think that's a bigger issue than the helmet colour personally.
  13. He didn't get to the final? In any case I disagree, I think far too much is made of gate choices. Whichever one you are on you have to make a good start and good choices around the first two bends. Lindgren and Zmarzlik are just better at that as they proved tonight. Lambert will get there with more experience, he just needs to be more composed in the crunch races. I've no doubt he has a World Title in him though, he has enough talent and speed.
  14. That was going to be Jorgensen in the very first instance though? If Jorgensen had been fit and Bailey carried on where he was last year things would have been quite different.
