Conkers Posted March 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 (edited) The Heat Draw for the Roelof Thijs Bokaal - taken from the Assen Website Heat 1: Christoph Kirchner D Jo Saetre N Dennis van der Tang NL Florian Fürst D Heat 2: Joni Kontoniemi SF Thomas Cavigelli CH René Verhoef NL Josef Kreuzberger A Heat 3: Mario Schwaiger A Sebastian Gegenbauer D Jouni Seppänen SF Lukas Rösti CH Heat 4: Simon Gartmann CH Torleif Burman S Max Neidermaier D Kai Lehtinen SF Heat 11: Sergej Baltatsjev Rus Grzegorz Knapp Pol Heat 12: Joakim Söderström S René Stellingwerf NL Heat 13: Sven Holstein NL Stefan Pletschacher D Heat 14: Vladimir Tsjapalo Rus Markus Skabraut A The meeting is the 24 heat GP formula, so if you are going to Assen this weekend, it looks a great meeting on Friday, together with the prospect of some terrific racing on Saturday night/Sunday Afternoon. I spoke to Ron Shaw from Eurorider last week, and I understand you can still book with him for his trip which takes in all three meetings. EDIT 2 Due to circumstances beyond my control, I won't be in Assen this weekend having to cancel at the last minute. EDIT: News from Assen that Max Neidermaier from Germany will replace Austria's Johann Bruckner Edited March 7, 2008 by Conkers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conkers Posted March 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Draw for Berlin and the last two rounds: 1 Stanislav Archipov 2 Stefan Svensson 3 Antti Aakko 4 Per-Olof Serenius 5 Nikolai Krasnikov 6 Maksim Zakharov 7 Dmiytri Khomitsevich 8 Antonin Klatovsky 9 Ilja Drozdov 10 Harald Simon 11 Gunther Bauer 12 Dmitri Tschatschin 13 Danil Ivanov 14 Vitali Khomitsevich 15 Franz Zorn 16 Pavel Tsjajka R17 Johnny Tuinstra R18 Tommy Flyktman It's a pretty safe bet that Krasnikov will win (but judging by our collective failure to get predictions correct we've probably jinxed him ) but I reckon Zorn will grab a final rostrum spot, with Danil there too.

f-s-p Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 (edited) I was just watching the pics from Assen by DGT. One of them showed the track absolutely flooded with water and in the next there was a tractor scraping all the excesswater off. Did they really do this? or did I misunderstand something crucial... Heard a rumour about the price that the organizers are paying for a day. HUGE! Edited March 13, 2008 by f-s-p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep they realy did it... when I arrived in Assen (2 hours before the race) there was alot of water on the track. 30 minutes (or something) before the race they were scraping it all off.

iris123 Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Thanks Ian. Mark said he would be there saturday at least.Not sure if he was staying sunday as well.Had a good chat with him and his mechanic.Not sure if he was happy with his performance,but he was getting stuck in and was certainly competetive.Was a good meeting.Obviously Bauer was easily the winner,but for the other rostrum places there was keen competition.Was lucky with the wind as it had been blowing the bales across the track all day but eased up just before the meeting or that could have caused a problem.Should be better for the weekend although still a bit wet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it doesn't matter how much water you put on it, if only the ice is below zero and the air is above zero. Usually the best ice is achieved when the water is warm. Then it first melts the ice and creates a very smooth surface. Nothing to do with ice racing though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
