Looks like Covatti is planning to ride on Sunday in the Itallian Championship round, so may be back sooner than expected.

Are you saying he's an incomplete novice?

Absolutely not

Good grief - I've never seen that before!!!

But Racers overcame that 5-nil reverse and won thanks to a Dickie May maximum - and a new hero was born.

Laurie Simms, John Hammond, Mike Vernam, Dave Jessup

I think all four of mine are (the oldest is 86)

That would make it possible to lose both matches and still get the bonus point!

But they still qualified for the final and got a bronze medal last year, so you can hardly argue it's not worth competing.

I imagine a lot of us have strong opinions on drug taking, drug testing and the disciplinary process, but they are best aired in the generally away from a single specific case - particularly one about which the facts are not yet known/in the public domain

I feel so youthful, just 4

One of my earliest heroes, will be sadly missed

Yeah, positively terrifying to watch. 1989..Long Eaton..10..35..12..0..1.371990..Milton K..27..102..83..11..3.681992..Sheffield..6..20..3..0..0.60

Riding in the Polish Golden Helmet

It looks to me like an attempt to weaken the link between between the site and its (now) former usage as a speedway stadium, with the longer term aim of expunging it completely.

That's a perfect description of Oxford v Birmingham, after heavier than forecast rain the match went ahead and the first (of many) passes wasn't until heat 6, a match well received by almost everybody who attended.

Off the pace, BUT it's a track he's historically struggled on. 4 points from 15 rides (mainly at reserve) in previous appearances.

Read my post again, slowly this time. Or do you think Landshurt and Daugavpils are now in Poland?

It would be refused a licence, would be closed down and then presumably lost to speedway. That's why there are now only FOUR Polish teams in the bottom league.

But does he have that power? There is no discretionary element in the rule as quoted in the rulebook.

But a guest for Berge would be under the 'no facility'.

Anyway couldn't they just sign (say) Dimitri Berge, have him not turn up and then use a 75% guest?

The former - but it would be worth a go. Maybe Newman could guest for Covatti, and then they could have R/R for Newman!

No they can use guests (but only up to 75% of Nico's average) - Kyle Newman looks the obvious choice, followed by Connor Mountain

Sad to hear, I talked to him several times at California reunions.
