Good news about Wroclaw, let's hope Adam gets quite a few meetings, cheers MD. Fingers crossed Adam can get somthing sorted there then. Thanks for the update.

Any news on if Adam Shields can be fitted into any team now, after he was released by Vargarna so they could squeeze in Pedersen?

Thanks for the info guys.

Kylmakorpi got a ride in Sweden yet for 2010?

Can't be bothered?! Richardson qualified through to the Croatian round this season and ended up in hospital out there with a kidney infection! Thus missing the actual meeting and the Hammers match at Belle Vue the following Monday. That's a long way to go, to 'not bother'!

Another event reduced to just 12 riders!

Worries me to see Adam and Robbo lining up in this the day before the Cup Final 2nd leg! Fingers crossed their are no injury or machine problems for anyone in this meeting.

It was obvious on Monday that Rico would miss this, that's why we had Bridger standing by as a guest for the play-off. It's also why I didn't travel up to Coventry yesterday.

Great to see Adam Shields back in action and scoring well!

Kelvin and Louis did very well indeed! For two former speedway riders to be able to take over like that was superb. Not the easiest of matches either, with the huge delay, the enormity of the occassion and the very close score. Well done boys!

Charlie Webster says Rico is in for Kennett and Batchelor for Sullivan. Why are we getting our news from a TV presenter's mobile phone, rather than official websites? Nothing on the BSPA site. On the Speedway GP website, it says Lyon is unsure whether he will bring Richardson in! How much top flight speedway does this guy actually see?! Our top rider in UK, Sweden and Poland may not be used when trying to qualify for a World Cup Final! What a joke.

From http://speedwaygp.com/ WATT CALL-UP Davey Watt has been called up into the Australian side for Event Two of the FIM Tobet Speedway World Cup at Peterborough tonight. The Eastbourne rider replaces Rory Schlein, who broke a collarbone riding for Coventry against Ipswich on Friday night. Schlein was sent flying from his bike after hitting the back-straight fence in Heat 4 and also suffered a fractured wrist, a knee problem and possible nerve loss in a finger. Australia tackle Great Britain, Poland and Slovenia in tonight's meeting, with the winners qualifying for Saturday's Final at Leszno, and the second and third placed teams going into Thursday's Race-Off in Poland.

Richardson is GB's top rider, former Peterborough rider and was 0.1 outside the track record on his last visit a few weeks back. Rico also to his credit has done more racing this year than I have ever seen him do. He used to throttle off quite often, when in close proximity to others, but he has rarely done that this year. Surely,we could have done with his gating skills against the World's best too? Guess Lyon thinks the first round is a lost cause, so give the youngsters some experience, and bring in Rico for the Polish round. No surprise about Nicholls being left out though really.

Was it really £10 to watch practice?!!! It cost about £1.50 to watch the GP practice in Prague!

In defence of the track, it was boiling hot out there, so it was incredibly difficult to keep any moisture in the track. They did water it a lot, but it was drying almost instantly. Would have been nice to have had more shale down, but as I say, you couldn't keep the moisture in it.

Can anyone please confirm the time of the practice in Prague tomorrow? Thanks

QUOTE (Rob B @ Mar 16 2009, 07:53 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So what happened to Kennett, did Dugard ban him from the stadium? Knowing what a child Dugard is, that was gonna be my bet! Wouldn't put it past him at all, in one way or another, to make sure that Kennett wasn't allowed to ride.

Hope Adam gets over his injury very very soon!

Anyone know why Kennett was replaced by Kylmakorpi?

Yeah, be good to share a beer over there. Are you on Facebook? My mate & I will be sitting by the exit of the second bend. We will also be there for practice, all being well. Will definitely get the 3/4 day ticket, as I will be there for 4 days. Can you buy it at the airport?

Thanks for all your help everyone! I have a lot to read and look into now and will book it up accordingly. Cheers

I am considering going to the Bydgoszcz GP for the first time this seaason. I was wondering if people could help with a few questions: Recommended and fairly cheap hotels close to the centre of Bydgoszcz? What area is best to stay in? Would be nice to do a few bars and nightclubs whilst out there. How do you travel from the airport to the City centre? Is the track within walking distance from the City centre? Is the practice on Friday open to the general public? If so, what time does it take place? Where is best place to buy tickets from? Where would you recommend to watch from in the Stadium? Thanks everyone!

Thanks for the info Mateusz! We were all worried when we saw he had pulled out of the match.
