What a weekend that was in Berlin.My 1st ever Ice meetings.A huge thank you to Conkers,Iris 123 for helping this novice out,without your help I don't know what would have happened(How waterproof do you need to be on a Sunday afternoon in Wilmersdorf by the way!!)An even bigger thank you to Wolfgang Radszuweit from bahnsport.de and his fantastic hospitality towards myself and the photos he's very kindly given to me.Looking forward to Assen immensely.

Any news on Stefan Svensson and Harald Simon and their injuries?

 

Svensson only suffered bruising and will be riding this weekend. Simon was walking around the pits on Sunday, and I beleive he withdrew on Medical advice after his arm injury was aggravated. I expect him to ride weekend too.

 

My photos should be up later today.

Draw for the final rounds at Assen:

 

1 Franz Zorn

2 Harald Simon

3 Antonin Klatovsky

4 Nikolai Krasnikov

5 Vitali Khomitsevich

6 Antti Aakko

7 Junir Baseev

8 Kai Lehtinen

9 Tommy Flyktman

10 Dmitri Khomitsevich

11 Stefan Svensson

12 Ivan Ivanov

13 Pavel Tschajka

14 Johnny Tuinstra

15 Gunther Bauer

16 Danil Ivanov

R17 Markus Skabraut

R18 Per-Anders Lindstrom

 

Skabraut will make his last ever appearances on Sunday, as he retires from racing at the end of the season.

Krasnikov only needs to qualify for the B Final on Saturday to be World Champion. He only needs 9 championship points as Danil can only score a maximum of 158, and Franky can only get 149.

 

 

Also saw that Andrei Gavrilkin isn't riding on the the Friday, and Martin Posch is. Pity really as I hear Gavrilkin is pretty good to watch.

Looking at pics by iris123 and Conkers from this season (probably before too) I noticed that Krasnikov has a different front fork to almost all the other riders like Aakko, Zorn Klato for example.

 

Anyone with a view or an opinion whats it all about?

If you like, I'll ask him tomorrow (provided I can persuade Joni to translate for me.......) :)

Please do. I was very surprised to see the amount of pics where he's smiling, so maybe he's learned english too! =)

Been to the Roelof Thijs Bokaal practice yesterday... it all looks good :). Only been there for 20 mins, but great to see some ice racing again. The Russians were looking very good. Made a couple of photos... Bit pitty that the organisation didn't gave me the permission to make pics on the inside, or even giving me acces to the paddock :blink::angry:. Oh well.

 

Ian; please send me a pm with your mobile phone number, we have to meet up this time lol, I'm going tonight and Sunday :).

Seems from what Jacky has sent to speedway-forum.de,Ivan Ivanov has not been allowed to start because of his injuries.It was obvious last week in Berlin he couldn't race.Stefan Svensson has also dropped out.So Skabraut und Lindström start and Sven Holstein and Swedish rider Olsson are reserves

1st time in Assen.A very enjoyable nights racing indeed.Stansilav Arhipov a very worthy winner indeed of the Roelof Thijs Bokaal.Very surprised his guy didn't make it in to the top 16 in qualifying.Maybe Conkers or Iris 123 can tell me why he didn't make it?
