As alot of riders where moaning about the racing formats of the KNMV... and I totally agree with that! Very wierd formats with riders who meet other riders in every heat and riders who meet other riders in none of there heats :unsure:.

 

So they are trying to get 16 riders for the "Senioren" every round of the Dutch Championship to make a "fair" format (like GP)... if they fail to get 16 riders.... the top riders of the "Nationalen" will move (if they want!) into the "Senioren" for that meeting to get 16 riders.

 

The championship-points are as follow:

 

1. 50

2. 47

3. 45

4. 43

5. 41

6. 40

7. 39

...

16. 30

 

If a rider in the "Senioren" is a "Nationalen" rider, his points will count for the "Nationalen" championship. So if you are a "Nationalen" rider and you ride in the "Senioren" in a meeting and you will finish last you will get more points if you finish first in the "Nationalen".

Something interesting: Scunthorpe News.

"The Support Class saw the Belgian father and son duo of Willy and Wim Kennis take the top two slots ahead of the North Lincolnshire pairing of Adam Oughtibridge and Andy Harrison whilst James Sarjeant was joined on the rostrum by Shane Hazleden and Cameron Hoskins in the Youth 500 Class.(...)

 

The Support Class championship standings now see five riders within five points of each other after leading riders, Montana Jowett and Duncan Towler had a nasty crash when they met in heat 40. Jowett, who had won the previous two rounds she had entered injured her shoulder in the crash whilst Towler was shook up and had damage to his bike. With neither able to continue the class became a shootout between the holidaying Belgians, Willy Kennis and his son Wim. Father Willy won through in the final but Chris Baldwin’s fifth place was enough to see the Northamptonshire rider climb to the top of the standings whilst Scunthorpe’s Adam Oughtibridge and Barnetby Le Wold’s Andy Harrison showed good form to make it to the final.(...)

 

Support Class:

Wim Kennis 14, Willy Kennis 11, Andy Harrison 10, James Culbert 9, Chris Baldwin 9, Montana Jowett 8, Adam Oughtibridge 8, Kevin Thrift 8, Duncan Towler 7, Jeff Halford 5, Derek Holt 5, Andy Saxby 4, Adam Kenyon 4, Alex Gilroy 4, Michael Osborne 0.

 

A Final: Willy Kennis, Wim Kennis, Adam Oughtibridge, Andy Harrison.

B Final: Adam Oughtibridge, Chris Baldwin, James Culbert, Kevin Thrift.

C Final: Kevin Thrift, Adam Kenyon, Derek Holt, Alex Gilroy.

 

Championship Round Points: Willy Kennis 16, Wim Kennis 15, Adam Oughtibridge 14, Andy Harrison 13, Chris Baldwin 12, Jimmy Culbert 11, Kevin Thrift 10, Adam Kenyon 9 , Derek Holt 8, Alex Gilroy 7, Montana Jowett 6, Duncan Towler 5, Jeff Halford 4, Andy Saxby 3, Michael Osborne 2"

 

I didn't know that Kennis' family started in Great Britain too :) Maybe Wim will be some good rider :) Does anybody knows his results from Dutch Champs 2008?
