  1. Oh yeah so he did, it was bleeding late but I do suffer with severe memory loss lol Some races simply neeeeeeeed more laps
  2. Some of the stuff he did was impressive but it went on a little too long tbh, as for the chap commentating and his whooping ............... for god's sake OTT or what!!!!! He should tape himself, he'd be well embarrased LOL
  3. Well done to Steve Mc, oops I mean Ricky Ashworth, that gate one and his obvious home track advantage stood him in good stead in the final, boo, me, maybe lol One more lap and Darcy would have got him, sure of it. Some nice moves made by our Boy Wonder, he didn't disappoint although no doubt he was disappointed himself not to have got top spot! Fantastic race between TT and Darcy in heat 4, thought experience was gonna win over youth but no, the little whipper snapper snuck through The action on the 1st and 2nd bends was not for the less committed riders, pleased to see that the only faller was the winner himself! Glad to be home, could hardly keep my eyes open towards Lynn .................... Sorry I missed the pub gathering, didn't go down the road far enough and in the end wasn't in as good time as I hoped, I heard that the beer and convo flowed nicely though
  4. Why haven't the bleeding FIM done a deal so this could be on tv, what a meeting!!
  5. More qualifiers and less GPs would mean more riders being able to compete in the world championship as they could afford to .................. a more varied world championship trail = more interest!
  6. Monday Night SKY league which includes GP riders who want to race over here on a set night, SKY deal covers all costs ........... Proper club race nights for a new British League ............ well who knows but hopefully would include EL and a number of PL clubs including KL and not including the GP riders/riders who don't want a full british league campaign. Sounds good but who knows what the BSPA have in mind?
  7. And that comes from one who has been there done that!
  8. It says this apparently: FIM president Vito Ippolito is content with the developments in the Speedway Grand Prix. “In countries, in which the Speedway Grand Prix gastiert, it is very successful”, means FIM president Vito Ippolito. “Global seen we are locally content also with the ratings in the television as well as with the number of fans. Now must be invested into the expansion of the series to make around it a world-wide event.” In addition, the 57-jährige Venezolaner sees problems in the course haven: “Contrary to nearly all other engine haven disciplines there is no support in the Bahnsoprt by the manufacturers. We talk however about a really attractive and spectacular kind of sport. Important it is therefore that we find methods and ways, to merge sponsors into the sport who have to do less with the motorcycles, but directly addresses the public.”
  9. And all could be lost to the GB if they get through to the GPs ............... who here wants to support that?
  10. Let's hope they presume right then. If they presume right british speedway will be overun with boys wanting track time, let's hope all the tracks can keep their heads above water til this presumption is realised! What a crazy set up. The worry must be that any sponsors gained will want that GP exposure not mere SGB but who knows.
  11. The FIM pay the riders so it's up to them to put the money up?? BSI/IMG pay their bit to the FIM and if they make any more it's theirs to keep, it's why they bought the promotional rights of the series.
  12. Perhaps the FIM should take the rights to the speedway world championship away from BSI for making a mockery of it!!
  13. Is there any possibility that BSI are trying to kill off world speedway on SKY? Surely once the SKY commentators are saying it's boring it's a death knell?
  14. Let's hope you're right HenryW, who knows what thoughts the riders in the challenge have in their heads ......................
  15. The british fans must not lose sight of the fact that their favourite club rider may decide to give the BEL a miss if they qualify for the GP series from this meeting ............ a sobering thought eh?
