Race Off Leszno Poland Thursday 19 Juli


Recommended Posts

Anyone wil appear in Leszno at Alfred Smoczyk`s stadium? Or at the Old Square after the meetings?? Me and Mateusz for 100% be there :)

It was mentioned in another thread.

And to be precise, I'll be at the final on Saturday only, not at the race-off.

1 Polska

2 Aussies

3 Ruskies

4 Sweden

 

But remember, everyone wrote off Sweden a couple of years ago when Trick pulled out of the Final at the last minute, maybe that could be the Swedes insperation

Hoping Sweden will get through but I think it's more likely to be Poland and Australia.

 

If Sweden don't get through, I may have to support GB in the final :blink:

Even with AJ in, I'm not sure that Sweden have the strength in depth that they had a few years ago. Lindback has not had a good year, Max is nowhere near the rider he was pre-accident and Magnus Karlsson is a gamble at reserve. If AJ rides and then has to pull out, Magnus will have to take his rides.

 

It is interesting that the strength of Speedway nations always seems to go in cycles. The Danes were so dominant with Olsen, Neilsen, Gundersen, Knudsen, etc. Now there is a resurgence with the younger good ones coming through. Sweden seems to be on the wane at the moment, but perhaps GB's fortunes are on the rise again? I hope so!

Poland and Australia to just edge out Sweden with Russians comfortable fourth with just Emil doing well for them. Damian Balinski to become the star rider on show.

Poland to win by at least 10 points from the Aussies, with an even larger gap back to Wolves Select in third. B)

Looks like we're not going to get the line-ups until after practise, but Andreas wants to ride and Davey Watt is in with a shot (good move.)

Dave - if you can't find them elsewhere no doubt I'll be doing them from Sky on Weird.

 

Edit: Poland to go through, definitely, and I quite fancy Australia to make the cut too.

Agreed. The Russians probably won't qualify but may have a significant influnce in who does go through. ;)

I think the phrase party poopers comes to mind :D

I've read somewhere that Seb Alden is likely to ride for Sweden tonight. I assume this if AJ and Lindback aren't fit. I don't know much about Alden. Obviously he's not going to be an AJ or Lindback but am I correct in assuming he's a better bet than Magnus? :unsure:

 

Hoping for a Sweden (Team Wolves) win tonight :lol: but above all a good meeting which on paper it promises to be! Can't see beyond the Poles on home soil though, irrespective of the Polish form of the other teams riders.

as for a prediction, i think polska will almost certainly go through soon as it is in Poland :P:wink::D

 

out of the other three, I think Russia will surprise a few people and they are my tip to cause an upset :D

Poland for sure, and perhaps Sweden if AJ rides. If he doesn't then Australia should do it. The Russians are a bit of a 'wild card' here though. And as proven previously a 'wild card' shouldn't be ignored. If nothing else I suspect the points they take off the other riders will prove vital.

 

Go Team Russia. :approve:
