Agree about Holder, with regards to sponsors being involved, really not that unusual across a lot of sports. Not that would make it right of course. However, I certainly think having a major sponsor like Monster is a good thing tho. And case in point is this years world champion is not a monster rider...

Yes I make you right,. but Id like to see that at the very least alternate every other year with the Traditional SWC rather than just become the norm.

Will be a tremendous shame if the SWC was axed for a Pairs competition. It always throws up incredible racing and I would agree pairs competitions are rarely that well supported. It is indeed apoor relation to team events. And cant justify 2 riders as a 'team' really IF it was in Manchester this year the Brits with 2 home track riders and Woffy would be very strong. Poland winning 2 years on the spin would be a sad reason to stop the competition. Just stop staging it in Poland...

It wasnt a classic but it had a good amount of decent races, all be it from heat 9 onwards.There was a crowd of 21k there which is decent by any standards and a great atmosphere which you could clearly hear (plus I was there last year I know it is loud and enthusiastic crowd. To say JD is a mediocre world champion is just idiotic. Im glad that has been reinforced to you by many others on here too. This series has been a great success despite a plethora of problems that have had to deal with. A few blips of course, Krsko was poor, Germany average and Gorzow not to the high standard weve come to expect. That aside a thoroughly entertaining series & worthy top 3 in the world. Bring on 2018

The guy has moved halfway around the world,,broken bones, ridden through the pain barrier, struggled through tough times, he deserves the send off. More importantly he got this position b right. He's unlikely to trouble the other 15 but so what, would it make that much of a difference in Kurtz or someone was in it? Nothing wrong with that Sir.

World Final, a contender could have a fall, EF and be done. after 2 rounds of heats were generally only a few riders in with a chance of winning anyway. 94 final was ok 93 ok 92 boring (but great result!) 91 Boring 90 brilliant 89 dreadful 88 ditto 87 ditto 86 ok 85 brilliant 84 boring 83 boring 82 mostly boring with one major incident 81 obviously brilliant wont go any further back but point being we can all have rose tinted memories....

2018 Grand Prix Venues

Again, although I disagree with his point of view, you cannot just make up that he said stuff! Out of interest, where do you think they should take the GP Series? Genuine question not being facetious. -

And where on earth does he say its the greatest place to finish the series?! Even though I disagree with Phil on keeping the series Finale there, you cant accuse his of saying things he hasn't said.
