At Gorican - nailed on to be Pavlic. Looks like a great line-up though!

Tidy post Parsloes

Agree with everything said in this post. Scotty is much more entertaining than half the riders in the series whether he is a Brit or not. No way BSI would allow the series to have no Brits in. I wouldn't be surprised if Bomber got a nomination as well as Nicholls. After all, he might not have had a great year this year but he is still young and has shown in the past he can cut it at this level. Holder, Sajfutdinov (sic), Woffinden etc are all very exciting young riders but aren't finished articles by a long shot. Lindback, Lindgren, Zagar...all given nominations as young up-and-comers and didn't really set the world on fire.

Was going to say, where or when did Jonsson actually say he wanted to ride for Poland? Seems to me that he is annoyed with the Swedish authorities at fining him for not riding in what he considered dangerous conditions (fair enough) and that he coincidentally is applying for Polish citizenship for business reasons and the journalists writing these articles are putting two and two together and making five.

Exactly what I was thinking. I don't think any of these three riders would be an automatic pick for their respective national championships. Definately a weakened field but Janniro showed the dedication flying back over to America to compete in the rounds so good on him and well done.

Seen Marc Owen on a 250cc at Mildenhall two or three times this season and he has looked very impressive. Good to see he has made the transition to 500cc well. Hopefully one to watch in the Conference League in a couple of years.

Something about a drink drive ban effecting his season?! Can a bonafide Swede give a decent translation please?

Scorecard anyone?
