The Holta Kaspzak Incident In Poland


Recommended Posts

Olly never touched Steen. He just cocked his foot, and, yes, he was completely wiped out. Some of the Eastbourne fans whipped themselves into such a frenzy about it they started to believe their own nonsense.

Without wanting to hijack this thread, i was sure that was the case - and the Budgies squawked, ignoring Floppies attempt to headbutt Hans and of course - Dugard ('nuff said)

I was only mucking about - now Olly rides for us I see the incident in a completly different light. :D

 

Martin Dugard never did anything wrong and neither has Floppy - they are both up for sainthoods

They both kicked Rune Holta while he was stuck under the airfence after a crash with Krzystof Kasprzak.
Dunno what Holta was upto but he just wiped out KK pretty cynically by that video clip. Sits up on the bike and just goes straight on....

When I spoke to Rune after the incident he stated that the crash was his fault. He came into the turn with too much speed, and when Kasprzak leaned into him (as well as Ulamek on the inside was entering the turn very slow) and touched his bike he lost his balance and had nowhere to go but straight.

But the point is that reactions that followed, especially from Kasprzaks second mechanic (the guy in the blue overalls) should NOT happen on any track. As Mad Potter said; what if Rune had serious injuries, just a small adjustment on his body could leave him paralyzed or dead.

Point is; this can not be allowed to go by unaddressed. Attacks on riders who just have crashed must not be customary, one day it will go terribly wrong !

Weeeell...........rumors now has it that Robert Kasprzak AND Damian Balinski now both have lost their licence after new video-evidence has surfaced.........

 

With Damian Balinski scheduled to ride for Leszno against Wroclaw on Sunday, I guess he appealed and has now got his licence back. Interestingly, a Damian Balinski Jr is also in the provisional Leszno line-up.

Yes, he did...and the appeal body could not establish beyond any doubt that he did kick Holta, so they let him off. What a farce it turned out to be.

 

To be honest I have had just enough ! One farce chasing another. How anyone can take speedway seriously. I can't anymore.
