Such a terrible race track when it gets to this stage of the meeting at Poole, all the riders chasing the only racing line about an inch from the fence
I see the riders race jackets say it's the Championship League Riders Final... which is a much better title than the Championship League Riders Championship
Because tracks don't always ride the way they look. Cardiff, Gorzow GP's being 2 cases in point. Even Poole vs Redcar last week... it looked like a complete pudding of a track, yet was fine within a few races.
If riders had a quick practice session before a meeting a lot of questions would be answered
Apart from the financial penalties bit I agree, the home promotion will already be suffering the financial penalty of a postponement and in this case the potential loss of league points (for me it'd be 1 point each with no restaging).
For riders to not have even tried the track before the postponement also needs looking at.
a slightly bigger attendance for the semis and a bumper crowd for the final... THAT IS ALL!
We won the CL at Leicester... did absolutely nothing with it!
I've been saying this for a while now since the postponement based on crap weather forecasts phenomenon started a few years back, 1 point each or whatever and move on... otherwise you'll get clubs just not fulfilling their fixtures when they can't qualify for the play offs like a kid taking his ball home when you were playing footy at the park.
Everyone would more incentivised to getting a meeting on if there was a danger of it not being restaged
