Well done to Gollob. Was shaping up into a classic GP until the rain killed it stone dead.

 

But Nicki has stolen a huge march on his main rivals. Crump was pretty poor, and Adams may as well have not turned up. Who is going to challenge Pedersen? Gollob isn't consistent enough to last the pace. Crump was passed like he wasn't there. Jonsson? Andersen? Oh dear.

 

It's going to be oh so easy for him this year. Could be as dominant as TRick was a few years ago, and it might be all over by the 6th GP.

 

Lets hope a rider steps up their game to challenge him.

Just 2 words to say. Gate One. Gate One. Gate One. Boring.

 

Weather killed it. Before the rain it was a cracking meeting. Shame even before the rain the Brits were crap. Sooner we get some fresh blood coming through the better.

Up to now have always stayed away from P2P because of possible risks. However, it had seemed to be a really good GP. Therefore, i took the plunge and installed Sopcast within two minutes. Then i switched the feed to the VLC Player for the most amazing quality picture and sound with no glitches whatsoever.

 

I still wish Sky would make the SGP's available online. I'd still be first in the queue for such a service. Hopefully, their excellent live commentary page received lots of hits and will give them food for thought. Obviously, like many others i would love to be able to hear an english viewpoint on proceedings from a home based broadcast.

 

Hopefully, it will sink in that not everyone can be forced into subscribing to a Sky package, be it planning permission, reception difficulties or financial restraints lots of people don't or can't subscribe to Sky.

 

The Champions League internet coverage is soon to be increased to 15 out of the 16 matches on the Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Clearly, there is a market for their sports on the web.

Inside gate paradise!

 

Just done a quick tot up (so I could be wrong!) but of the 23 races, 11 were won out of gate one, 10 out of gate 2, and 1 each for gates 3 & 4!!

 

Red scored 47 points, Blue 53 points, Yellow 24 points and white 14 points...

 

Ergo if you weren't in a red or blue hat you were knackered!

 

Both Crump and Adams only had one red and one blue ride (which they both scored 5 points for) each hence their low scores - I wouldn't write the Aussie pair of just quite yet!!!!

Can't get Sky where i am. Therefore, turning the tv on wouldn't have done much. Although, it obviously did once i fed the pc 'tv out' feed on to the much larger tv screen.

Have you bothered to work out which points were won from the gate, and which from the back?

Cracking racing up to the rain spoiling it. At least I got one of predictions right. B. Pedersen to be passed more than any other rider. :lol:

 

The Brits need to learn to gate. On the pace but always chasing.

 

Impressed by Gollob (although the gates suited him after the rain), Dryml and PUK. Adams the worst on the night as one expects rather more than that. I expect AJ and Hans to build on this and be strong all season.

Before the rain, Scott had 3 rides - all from Gates 3 and 4. Bjarne Pedersen was dreadful considering he had 2 rides from Gate 1.

Quality riders like Nikki and Hans will do well whatever gate they come from. Gollob earned his inside gates and did a superb job. Well done him. The English were poor as usual , Baaa! :approve:
