f-s-p Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 FIM rule book also says: 077.8.5 Individual Speedway World Championship Grand Prix Qualifying System The total Grand Prix points scored by each rider having taken part in the Individual Speedway World Championship Grand Prix Series during the season shall be shown on the Final Overall Grand Prix Classification of that year. The current year's Final Overall Grand Prix Classification, after removing the Wild Card riders, the Qualified Reserve riders, the Track Reserve riders and any substitute riders who have participated in the year's Championship, as they are not taken into consideration, shall determine the riders' qualifications for the next year's Championship as follows : • The top 8 riders of the Final Overall Grand Prix Classification of that year shall be directly qualified for the following year’s Grand Prix Series. (...) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> OK. Didn't see this bit first... This is in "my" rules also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 Which is just a stupid rule. The only reason is to keep the power at old men. If a rider is able to get enough points by riding in less GPs to be in the top 8 at the end, then he should qualify directly as it is a clear indication of the riders form compared to the "established riders". No matter if it is a WC rider or a qualifyed reserve rider. I agree with you on this one garf.Crazy rule Have you got the heat scheme for Holsted?Be interesting to see when Nicki,Hans,Bjarne,KB,etc meet each other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is on the right hand just beneath the GP-scoresheet (which is updated too) Edited July 27, 2006 by garf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrow boy Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 To be honest i think Nicki will have to write this GP year off.Good start,but it all went wrong.But he will be going hell-for-leather next week to beat Hans and win the Danish title.I would make him favourite to do so as well,but with it being an A-Final situation anything could happen.Can't wait for it <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I would like it if all the major speedway country's national champions were all invited to the GP World Championship by right. Such nations being say GB,Sweden,Poland,Denmark,Australia, USA. Would make the Britsh Final more meaningful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
