You won by 20 on Good Friday
-
You still have the KoC to go for!
-
I do hope not. Bugger Eurosport they had their chance and ran out at such a pace to cause its cancellation! If it's on the weekend at the NSS with no Eurosport coverage I will definitely be there!
-
Just because it's been 7 man teams for as long as I can remember doesn't mean it always has to be that way. You alter the model to suit the circumstances, if there aren't enough riders to run a credible league you go to 6 or even 5 man teams... it ain't rocket science

You could supply 100 tyres to each team at the beginning of the match, it wouldn't make any difference if the tyres aren't lasting a race... unless the sport introduces pit stops!

Any news on his injuries last night?
-
They looked new and unused to me... Yesterday you had me questioning what my ears had told me... today you have me questioning what my eyes tell me 2 questions: were you at the meeting yesterday and did you see the pile of tyres at the NSS?
-
I saw hundreds of them stock piled in the open air at the NSS back on Easter Monday, all exposed to the elements (in Manchester!). Some of them were in a right state

Taken from the Peterborough website this morning: "There was a sufficient number of tyres at the venue in order to run the meeting; however, with the failures taking place with alarming frequency, it was not safe to run the final five races of the meeting, and there was full agreement over this point." This is how I understood the announcement made over the PA

See the match thread
-
3 lap races next year until the stock of tyres have been used up
-
Bet there's more chance of it going the same way as the last scheduled televised meeting at the showground!
-
But it's fun to stay at the YMCA!
-
They failed some compound test i seem to remember, they were too soft or something
-
I think there have been problems since day 1. I remember watching a load of riders and officials in the pits at Peterborough either this season or last having long discussions about the tyres. There may have been problems we just don't know about them?
-
I thought there were issues with them during their first year and they had to abandon using them
-
Weren't the Anlas tyres abandoned from being the GP tyre initially because of quality issues?
