T.N.T.

You should try and get the best 15 riders you can in the GP Series. After the 3 qualifiers have been decided then you make sure the best 12 riders are also in and that means Hans Andersen, Nicki Pedersen, Emil Sayfutdinov, Fredrik Lindgren and Andreas Jonsson should get wild cards if needed

Western European !! ...... Have people forgot this is England ! The English GP ..... Cardiff would still be massive ..... Hold one as Event 3 ... the other Event 9

Will keep with Freddie as captain ... home track and not many have him as captain and I need the points !

Olympic Stadium or Cardiff ? WHY NOT BOTH ? Cardiff should always be the home of the BRITISH GP ..... but why not if a stadium like the Olympic Stadium bevcame available cant it hold the ENGLISH GP ? Poland have the POLISH GP ... the EUROPEAN GP .... and the ... the .... they havent NO NAME GP !

The Series gets interesting again ..... Emil is back !!

Just spoke to someone there and it is raining pretty heavy now

1 ~ Winners of Event 1 POLAND 2 ~ Play Off qualifiers from Event 1 (2 teams) DENMARK & RUSSIA 3 ~ Winners of Event 2 AUSTRALIA 4 ~ Play Off qualifiers from Event 2 (2 teams) GREAT BRITAIN & SWEDEN 5 ~ Points Artem Laguta will score in Event 1 8 6 ~ Points Nicolai Klindt will score in Event 1 8 7 ~ Points Tai Woffinden will score in Event 2 9 8 ~ Points Freddie Lindgren will score in Event 2 12 9 ~ Points Great Britain will score in Event 2 45 10 ~ Two teams that qualify from Play Off DENMARK & SWEDEN 11 ~ Team finishing 3rd in play off GREAT BRITAIN 12 ~ 4TH IN FINAL SWEDEN 13 ~ 3RD IN FINAL AUSTRALIA 14 ~ RUNNERS UP IN FINAL DENMARK 15 ~ WORLD TEAM CUP CHAMPIONS POLAND

Just for fun ..... see if you can predict the following 1 ~ Winners of Event 1 2 ~ Play Off qualifiers from Event 1 (2 teams) 3 ~ Winners of Event 2 4 ~ Play Off qualifiers from Event 2 (2 teams) 5 ~ Points Artem Laguta will score in Event 1 6 ~ Points Nicolai Klindt will score in Event 1 7 ~ Points Tai Woffinden will score in Event 2 8 ~ Points Freddie Lindgren will score in Event 2 9 ~ Points Great Britain will score in Event 2 10 ~ Two teams that qualify from Play Off 11 ~ Team finishing 3rd in play off 12 ~ 4TH IN FINAL 13 ~ 3RD IN FINAL 14 ~ RUNNERS UP IN FINAL 15 ~ WORLD TEAM CUP CHAMPIONS 10 Points per correct answer .... for riders predictions, lose a point for each point out.

Event 1 is almost a waste of a meeting. Poland will win by miles with Denmark and Russia way ahead of Czech Republic Event 2 is interesting as Finland will finish last but any of the 3 could win it and those that dont get straight through will have a tough match then v Denmark and Russia who could be a suprise packet !

I understand that Australia have some very good young riders on the scene now, but I was disapointed that Jason Crump and Leigh Adams aren't riding in this years WTC as they would be favourites to win and finish Mr Mildura/Clean's career off with an FIM Gold Medal. Crump, Adams, Holder, Schlein, Batchelor .... Ward, Watt, Shields, Proctor

Sorry about there being no Dragon .... Wife didn't make it this year ! As the British GP was on the same weekend then there was little chance of either happening.

As there was no contact and Nicki leading I would have called it the same way which is hard on Davey who was just racing. Nicki didn't take exception on Hans .... it was the other way as Nicki clearly went back to riding the rider instead of the race.

Sat in great seats again M6 just above the pits entrance and thought it was a great night. Not searching through all the posts and comments but can some answer me the following question Q ~ Isnt FIM a meeting where All 4 Back isnt a choice ? .... If so how did Crumpy get a second chance when he fell without being touched ?

the upper tier looked more full than in previous years to me and I would have said it was at least 45,000 Good that some newspapers got involved

I too would much rather watch the Speedway rather than F1 even on telly, but then again I would much rather watch Rye House v Birmingham than Chelsea v Aston Villa too. Millions of other people around the world have the other view and while it would be great for speedway to have crowds of 10,000 plus (even though most couldn't hold that amount), its possibly the rawness of the sport that makes it special to us petrolheads. Also if speedway did become a multi million pound sport, could you see any promoter wanting a rider they pay £20,000 a meeting (which is what it would lead to), ride anywhere other than for them !!

Always park in the same place every year ... a few minutes walk to the Stadium and no charge !!!

Brilliant meeting, not too many follow the leader, some great p[asses and overall a great day in all. Roll on 2011 .... now back to catch some more ZzZzZzZzZzZz's

You don't have to sing the National Anthem to be patriotic .... maybe they are not up to the standards of Mr Gollob and co but I felt all 3 gave battling performances and some great passes. Tai started slowly but 6 from his last 3 riders were great

Yes there are no British riders up there challenging as they are not in the same class as the top boys and quite frankly the only Brit that ever has challenged since the GP's started has been Mark Loram as this country no longer brings new talent through. The easy answer is right in front of you .... Too many crap foreign riderds over here that started with 7.00 averasges and now average 3.00 and fill up the reserve spots that should be given to British riders. If a rider cant obtain his assessed average then he clearly isnt good enough and if they were to return then they would have to keep that average until they reach that level. Would promoters continue to bring back riders like Max Dilger, Klaus Jacobsen etc if they still had 8.00 averages ?

Thought the idea in general was brilliant, it didnt help with some roadworks around as walking space was tight with the crowds gathering. Titan the Robot was very good, certainly drew people in and it was weird seeing riders just a few hours from appearing in the biggest event of the year out on the streets with Tai Woffinden even doing that massive spinning thing four hours before tapes up. Wuld have been nice having them interviewed on a stage as you could only just herar them, but couldnt see them sitting down behind the crowds. As for the start girls .... Yellow was quite pretty but didn't think much of their heat by heat so called routine and thought in general they were false, barbie made up and not exactly attractive ..... there are some beautiful girls out there in England that could do this job and I would certainly give them 4 much better girls if they wanted British next year.

Are these still for sale ? Anyone has spare tickets, post on here to keep it on one thread

Well 12 months ago there was a certain person being all but carried into the MAillenium Stadium .... Good Luck to the lad, he may never get a chance to line up at Cardiff again so make the most of it now and party !!!
