[Guest Steve Dixon]

Try Conkers(Ian Charles) he is well up on Ice Speedway.

[Conkers]

With the meeting about three weeks away, maybe they'll make the draw next week.

You may find out more from the Assen organisers if you give them a call. They usually know what's going on.

Unless Iris123 has been testing his Russian again on the forums there....

Well i did come across an english language Saransk site,that ad a bit of Ice speedway on it.But the person doing it had as much of a clue on translation as me!The semi at the weekend was held at Intsels and the top Austrian rider is Franz Scorsc

[Conkers]

From Inspeed.de the Saransk Starting line up:

 

1.Anti Aakko

2.Dimitri Bulankin

3.Vladimir Lumpov

4.Jonny Tuinstra

5.Andrey Shishegov

6.Viatcheslav Nikulin

7.Franz Zorn

8.Maksim Zakharov

9.Tommy Flyktman

10.Younir Bazeev

11.Ilya Drozdov

12.Per-Olof Serenius

13.Mikhail Bogdanov

14.Stefan Svensson

15.Nikolaj Krasnikov

16.Harald Simon

 

Reserve

17.Robert Eibl

18.Antonin Klatovksy

 

If the series runs as in previous years, Eibl and Klabo will replace the bottom two scorers on day 2.

[Conkers]

Any predictions about how this weekend will go?

 

I think the top 5 will be:

 

1) Bulankin

2) Krasnikov

3) Baseev

4) Zorn

5) Serenius

 

with Antti Aakko making headway in the top 10.

With Franky and Posa in a top 5 position, the Assen weekend should be brilliant. The only problem will be that Franky has had no luck in Russia for a few years now.

[Wolfslayer]

My top 5 for this weekend.

 

1. Krasnikov

2. Bulankin

3. Zorn

4. Baseev

5.Posa

 

I'll put Antti Aakko down for 8-10 place.

 

I say this every year,'Franky's gonna have a good meeting this time in Russia'

so i'll stick my neck out and say third.

Maybe third place is a little optimistic but he's got to have a good meeting there sooner or later.

[toonarmy084]

if any of the european riders finish in the top 3 especially zorn or posa then they will have the best chances of being world champion because the russians arent as good at assen just a note i have heard that samarodov is racing at assen in the golden spike series. In penza he was very fast but had a big problem with 2 crashes and 2 stops because of losing his rear chain but other than that he was unbeaten every time he finished.

[iris123]

I'll go.

1.Bulankin

2.Krasnikov

3.Lumpov

4.Posa

5.Bogdanov

Good to see Franky making a dent in the Russian Front. Third in the B Final is no mean feat there. Perhaps he can go one better tomorrow. Looks like Wolfslayer was right - he finally has a good meeting in Russia!

Poor old Posa - not having a good time in Russia this season at all.

If the racing goes to plan, Ebl and Klatovsky should replace Tuinstra and Flyktman tomorrow.

Well no surprises that the Russians would Dominate but 6th Place overall for Franky Zorn puts him in good place for an upset in Assen. Well done to Stefan Svensson and Antti Aakko for denting the Russian ranks.

Two weeks to assen - It's going to be a great weekend!

Edited February 26, 2006 by Conkers

[iris123]

Maybe no surprise they would dominate,but certainly Bulankins performance over the weekend is a big surprise to me.haven't had time to look at any Russian sites to see if there is a particular reason for that.

[Conkers]

From what I can gather, Bulankin suffered loads of Machine trouble on the Sunday. Saturday he was in better form as he beat Baseev.

Think Franky could cause an upset in Assen though as he really likes the track - given he can make the gate in every race, and with Aakko & Posa on a track they like, the Russians could find themselves up against a three pronged attack.

I still think it will be a Russian who wins, but Krasnikov doesn't really like the Dutch track I'm told - First world title for Baseev?

[Paragon]

I tipped Krasnikov after the Inzell weekend & it looks like he dominated the meetings this weekend. Krasnikov & Eibl are the only Beru Blue Power sponsered riders & with Eibl being out of his depth Krasnikov has the best machinery in the contest (with the possible exeption of Franky, but he is an out and out gater & as we know, first out of the gate doesn't always win in Ice Speedway).

 

p.s.

 

Still no sign of my new passport.

[Conkers]

I've just had a look at Krasnikov's results at Assen in the last three seasons there:

2003: Sat: 2nd B Final; Sun 2nd D Final. Overall position 8th

2004: Sat: 1st A Final; Sun 1st B Final. Overall Position 5th

2005: Sat: 2nd A Final; Sun 4th A Final. Overall position: Champion

 

Not bad for someone who doesn't like the track

 

Last Year he won both rounds in Russia, and won the title by riding in both A Finals at Assen and in Berlin.

 

I think you may be right Paragon, He could easily retain his title although I do think Baseev may want to make amends for his Last place in the C Final and second in the D Final of 2004, by winning the title. To do that he needs to win both A Finals and for Krasnikov to get a third on one of the nights.

From your account of Inzell and from his scores at the weekend, I think it's highly unlikely.

Remember, Krasnikov only turned 21 in February so he is already in the record books as the youngest Tracksport World champion ever, so being a double World champion by the time he's 21 is another record.
