Rune Holta is the worst culprit of all - he actually hops around nationalities to get into the GP series. When there was a Norwegian GP, he was Norwegian. That dissapears and suddenly he's Polish, because they have two rounds and there's more chance of getting in that way. All the best Rob

Well, he was the best rider at Cardiff this year and extremely unlucky not to win that. Apart from that, though, he's been poor this year. I'd prefer to see Iversen kept in the series over Bjarne. All the best Rob

Bryn - I reckon I'm doing really well for 23. All the best Rob

Bryn - Helping my mum move house. And then the "man in the van" didn't turn up, and we had to make alternative arrangements. So I could have stayed in bed until a more reasonable 9.00am. I'd knackered - all this physical exercise malarkey is not good for you. All the best Rob

You lazy old git. I was up at 7.00am this morning. All the best Rob

Happy days: 17 lucifer sam 485 32 Schumi 472 54 Jacques 450 All the best Rob

Hi Chugbunny & Wembley Lion, I didn't actually say Chris was drinking. I was just surprised to bump into him so late in the evening and it came as such a contrast to the approach that I imagine most of the top riders would take. All the best Rob

Kelvin's approach to World Finals was to allow him to be pushed out wide and then spend the next 12 months moaning about it. All the best Rob

He still scored nearly as much as Nicholls and Harris put together. And no doubt Nicki Pedersen and Jason Crump have early nights the night before the Grand Prix. It's called professionalism - and it's what the British riders lack. When I'm out on the piss the night before the Swedish GP, I don't expect to bump into any riders. All the best Rob

Paulco - the Danes all get on come the World Cup, though. Unlike our riders who are too busy nicking the favoured sports of their team mates in the Coventry pits, instead of concentrating on a team effort in the competition. All the best Rob

I was staying at Vastervik at the weekend. Bjarne Pedersen was staying at our hotel. Someone spotted his mechanics in the bar at the hotel the night before the Grand Prix, and they asked his mechanics where Bjarne was. "He's been tucked up in bed for the last hour", came the reply. It seems Bjarne went to bed around 8.00pm. On the other hand, Chris Harris was spotted at a bar in the wee hours of Saturday morning. Is it any wonder we can't compete with the Danes? All the best Rob

Jacques - I think you'll find my team has now clicked, so you'll find it hard to get those 17 points back. And it's all thanks to my No. 5 Lukas Dryml All the best Rob

This is good to see: 21 lucifer sam 415 33 Schumi 404 39 Jacques 398 All the best Rob

Sub, surely a better indicator of whether any draw number is favourable would be to look at the top scorer at the end of the 20 heats. In the old World Finals, I think Nos 5 & 13 had the most wins. All the best Rob

BBB, that's OK, just being a bit impatient because I reckon I scored around 90 from the round and therefore I may have gone sailing past Jacques in the standings. All the best Rob

I reckon I had a good one last night thanks to captain Nicki, Hans and Crumpie. What are the latest standings Bert? All the best Rob

What a pleasure every time Greg is interviewed. He is such a gentleman and always remains upbeat. All the best Rob

You obviously didn't see the 2007 German GP then. Best feature of last night wasn't the racing. It was Johno's commentary. Comments such as: "I was in the middle of an important comment there when he fell off. That was a bit selfish of him." Brilliant. All the best Rob

But, my Old Mongol friend, if Olsen "ratifies" surely that does indeed given him the final choice. Do we know for sure if Ljung was the Swedish choice and not Olsen's? And surely the Swedes don't get the choice for this round in any case - it's the Scandinavian Grand Prix, is it not? In the past, non-Swedish riders have been the wildcard for this round, surely the Swedes wouldn't have picked a Dane or a Finn? All the best Rob

Subedei - the ultimate choice of wildcard is down to Ole Olsen not the Swedes. I would have thought you would know that. All the best Rob

Parsloes, It was last staged in 1981, when it was rained off on its traditional May date and restaged in August. Hans Nielsen was the final winner. The following season (1982), the Internationale was scrapped and replaced by the £5,000 winner takes all Embassy Open at White City. It was a crap meeting on a very slick, with no passing, except in the run-off, where Dennis Sigalos passed Hans Nielsen to claim the money. It was the only time the Embassy Open was staged - with the competition mutating into the British Open Pairs. All the best Rob

How about the following Great Britain team: 1. Jason Crump 2. Leigh Adams 3. Chris Harris 4. Chris Holder 5. Tai Woffinden All the best Rob

Hmmmm, they seemed to leave a very patchy track, which helped cause Jason Crump's broken wrist. All the best Rob

How do you get 0.2 of a person? All the best Rob EDIT: Sorry, Peter, I know what you meant, but I was just imaging someone with their leg left through the railings.

Oh for goodness sake. Yes, Nicki is the Prince Of Darkness and we all love to boo him. But he did bugger all wrong last night. All the best Rob
