Firstly, it's Lindgren. Secondly, he didn't win - Holta did All the best Rob

Nonsense. There was no contact (well, not at the moment of the accident). Carter fell off. All the best Rob

I believe you mean temporary tracks. All the best Rob

EVERY speedway meeting is held on a man-made track. All the best Rob

No, Hans only got left out of the 1985 World Pairs. He was brought back for the final of the 1985 World Team Cup Final at Long Beach. The re-run at Bradford was even more obvious - Knudsen rode Nielsen instead of the track on the second bend, pushing Nielsen wide from second to fourth. Team orders from Mr. Olsen. Ulitmately the feud with Nielsen cost Olsen his job - he was forced to resign as Danish team manager at end of 1985. All the best Rob

Well, as Hans won 22 World Championships (of various kinds), which is a clear five ahead of any other rider, not many. The 1985 World Pairs Final - for which Tommy Knudsen was selected instead of Hans at the height of the feud. And maybe the 1985 World Final at Bradford - when Knudsen seemed to be under instruction (you would assume from Olsen) to mess up Nielsen in his fourth ride. That's probably it. All the best Rob

Schumi - isn't it obvious? I post on it. All the best Rob

He's not Don Ole Anyway, Hans Nielsen opposed Ole Olsen and finished with four World Championships - one more than Olsen himself. All the best Rob

I'm ignoring it. All the best Rob

"Spice up the product". Bollocks. I've been down the pits and been the last person to speak to a rider, before he crashed and smashed his thigh to smithereens. Fortunately that rider defied the odds and is now back riding, but I still get a sick feeling when I see a rider crash, until I know they're alright. Great racing is entertaining. But crashes never are. All the best Rob

Oh come on, he's not the mafia. Eventually IMG will wake up, smell the coffee and Olsen will be out on his ear. And it won't be a moment too soon. All the best Rob

Well, you're not. You seem to find accidents "entertaining". Good racing on a decent surface is entertaining, not watching riders fall off and get hurt. All the best Rob

Maybe they should let a few of us down the pits to tell Mr. Olsen some home truths. Sooner or later he is going to get someone killed. All the best Rob

So you find it "entertaining" that several riders got injured tonight. It wasn't entertainment - it was f****** carnage. All the best Rob

The track tonight was a complete disgrace - and was a direct cause of several accidents. Olsen should be sacked with immediate effect. All the best Rob

Nicholls really did disappoint tonight. There's no way he should he failed to qualify for the semi-finals - the move on Fosberg was daft. All the best Rob

Do you know the first thing I do when there's a thread I'm not supposed to post on? All the best Rob

I noticed it at the pub in Kidlington too. All the best Rob

Messed up the 1977 World Final somewhat, though. All the best Rob

No, I said he'd reach the final. All the best Rob

Schumi - no, Nicki will win this particular GP round. All the best Rob

Nicki Pedersen 60,000 Jason Crump 50,000 Hans Andersen 40,000 Kryzsztof Kasprzak 30,000 Lukas Dryml 20,000 Total: 200,000 Captain: Nicki Pedersen. All the best Rob

Why not have it as the winner of the final GP then? The money should not be awarded for an non-championship race. All the best Rob

Surely this money should go to the actual World Champion or, at the very least, the winner of the final GP, not the winner of a gimmicky extra race which has no bearing on the World Championship at all. Did everything get pissed up at the FIM congress or something? All the best Rob

Parsloes - who are you kidding, I thought you went to speedway in 1929, hence your BSF name. All the best Rob
