Pollyanna Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 Scott 'dumped' on his Swedish team because he was 'burnt out'. It might not be the honourable thing to do, but he is not the first to do it and neither will he be the last. It may not work, but at least he is trying to do something positive about the situation. Scott has often been accused of sticking with the same old things, at least he is giving it a go. He is well aware that the last few GPs of this year will probably determine whether he is in the series next year or not, you can't blame the lad for pulling out all the stops surely? Yes I know you wont agree Sub, but in your eyes the 'global superstar' is to blame for most things isn't he? Why don't we blame him for the credit crunch too? Then why is he riding in Russia?

spin king Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Then why is he riding in Russia? Not entirely sure so I apologize if I am incorrect, but don't the Swedish league run on a more regular basis than the Russian League.

f-s-p Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Then why is he riding in Russia? What does riding in Russia mean? Oneoff meeting or twice a week between April and October? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coventry_Bee Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 (edited) WELL its nice the brits work together in the GPS!! What was Chris H arris doing in holtas pits helping him with his bike after the clash?!! ALSO IN THE RACE WITH Scott, Harris looked for Scott for 2 laps forgetting all about KK and letting him through!! WORK TOGETHER LADS I did find it strange to see Harris`s mechanic lending a hand to Holta`s team with harris intrestingly looking on. In my opinion i find that a bit strange, never in watching the GP`s have i seen same nationalities really helping each other, never mind other countries. Its the 3rd or 4th time this season (GP and Elite) that they have clashed.... Roll on the next GP for Nicholls vs Harris.

scotty2hotty Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 (edited) Scott did ride in Russia the other week for the first time. Last year he was offered a place in a Russian team but turned them down. I do not believe this is to be a regular occurance (riding in Russia).

tocha Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Getting back to the subject, what was the ref's original thinking regarding heat two, in which, AJ was excluded. Scott went down after contact and, as far as I called see, our ref brought the race to a halt only after the remaining three riders were about to start their second laps. If he thought that AJ was at fault why didn't he put on the red lights as they entered the back straight and would he have stopped the race if Scott had removed his bike from the track in time?
