taken from speedwayworldtv.: JAROSLAW Hampel has suffered a complicated hand fracture in a Swedish league meeting. He may not be back on track this season. A worse setback could hardly have happened for Jarek, at this moment of the speedway season. Hampel, who had some motor problems in the spring, was now getting back to his best form. He won the Speedway World Cup with Poland, and he took second place in the Czech Grand Prix last Saturday. "I am back on the right track. Now I can chase," he said with a smile in Prague... In the Swedish league match between Dackarna and Elit Vetlanda, Hampel had an accident with Fredrik Lindgren. The Polish rider lost control of his machine and his Swedish colleague was unable to avoid him. "We still do not know how long Jarek will be ruled out for. It depends on a medical examination. First speculations suggest three months' break," says Stanislaw Kryjom, Unia Leszno coach Poor Jarek get well soon.

As Starman has said we are in a cross over period, and think Middlo's probably got it right, although my reaction was David over Simon TBH, but as events have turned out what a good judgement call that turned out to be.(get well soon David) The youngsters have to be given a chance, and this year is probably better than ever for doing just that.That's what the Aussies are doing, and what Denmark had to do a few years ago. So, whilst I think they will qualify no problem, realistically can't see them winning, but there time will come. It's interesting, that people on here, blast fans for supporting foreign riders in GP's etc., but feel it is there right to belittle the Team manager, double standards I feel, let's get behind the whole team, and that includes the manager

MrS went to DENMARK

I have to agree TC, thought that was the most boring one-sided meeting I've ever seen, and Ole Olsen should be ashamed of himself. To my mind we had 3 of the Worlds top teams there tonight, and 2 of them were not even at the races. Just hope that the Coventry track team don't let him get any where near their track for Monday. For me that meeting has summed up all of the rubbish sky have been dishing up week after week this season (Cardiff the exception of course), and no wonder people are not interested in speedway anymore or are leaving in droves.

Don't forget Tobi Kroner Edit: Even more reason not to forget Tobi now, he's got through from Lonigo tonight, beating the likes of Jarek, Max, Holder.

There is a full coach load of us coming from Ipswich

£820 now and counting, brilliant isn't it. Should raise shed loads for Garry, well done to Hans and Mick.

TBH I just don't know what to say, this is such tragic news 'again'. Our thoughts and condolences to his family and friends.

Jaybea let's not forget Zagar, who also took a nasty tumble.

I'm booked for Germany.

Now who can you mean?

Sounds a bit like jealousy to me

Huh you think he is naff, you should try to listen to Peter Churchill on Eurosport, he was commentating on the World Equestrian 3 Day Event this afternoon, and he was giving the scores and penalties for each rider before they had finished their round, so we knew whether they went clear in the time or not hardly before they had started. Also, he also kept getting the names and sometimes the sex of the riders wrong. Obviously Sky and their contemporaries do things on the cheap

Only if we can call it a 'joker'

The highlight for me tonight in quite a night for highlights, Jason crowned, Hans' win, even Pepe's first race win , was Ales Dryml how great was that to see and hear him tonight.Good on you Ales, continue with your rehab and we look forward to seeing you ride that bike again...marvellous bl@@dy marvellous. Unlike Mr Louis

Well I think it will be Danny King in 2012

Complete the sentence,....dangerous when roused

I can't believe this, 10 pages and counting again over Hans v Scott I notice no thread on the Crump v Lindbach episode, (or if there is not 10 pages). Nothing anyone says will change the decision from last night, and I think we all ought to thank those brave riders for riding in atrocious conditions. What seems to have started as a bit of rivalry at the Witches in 2004, has now got to the stage where if they are not careful someone will get hurt. I'm afraid all this discussion on the TV doesn't help as they are so biased they can't see the truth(or not as the case may be) if it came and bit them on the nose. Scott is a hothead, and at times loses his head and Hans is completely the opposite and is cool and determined, both dangerous when roused. It does make for exciting racing, but at the end of the day safety must come first. I do think it sad that people have to resort to name calling etc., if a decision goes against their favourite rider, not necessary and I suspect untrue to boot. My feelings on the matter, for what it is worth, Scott had his luck in Lonigo and this time wasn't his

Ever the diplomat Jaybea. I appreciate what you are saying. I just feel it's THAT time of the year again, and 2004 raises it ugly head ONCE again. You know the incident I'm talking about. And it doesn't help when Scott talks to the papers (again) and talks without any thought for what he is saying. We had an absolutely brilliant week of Speedway, thrilling, with spills AND no injuries, sometimes edge of the seat stuff, and even a bit of pantomime thrown in as well.The best team won, and GB (mainly thanks to Scott) did well to finish on the podium should be end of but no here we go again.

You are very welcome.

The point everyone seems to miss is that Hans(I've used his name as you did) has never spoken to the press about any incident, unfortunately that is what Scott continues to do at every opportunity it seems. Also who is the one who pushes his weight around and throws punches when things don't go HIS way. Not the Danes certainly(and that explosive episode on Saturday night was straight after the event and verbal not physical before you say anything and forgotten about after the event as it should be).No Scott needs to become dignified, he is a good rider but needs to think more about his own behaviour before he casts aspersions against others, and that Jaybea is my opinion on this matter, I know you disagree and thats your perogative, that's what makes forums interesting.

What like Mark Loram:former World Champion etc, etc,a real gent and nice guy.....ummm a loser, yeah right.

"shock horror".......Not one of these posters is an Ipswich fan, whatever next
