Paulco Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 Can't be tomorrow cos of the Polish league matches! Unless it's held in the morning or something? They must have a contingency plan surely . Maybe the league matches would have to be cancelled as the World Cup final would surely take precedence .

manchesterpaul Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 From the regulations 'sticky' i posted in the general section;  Check out the sections in bold!  078.1.4 Dates of the meeting  The SWC meetings can be held during daylight or during the evening under floodlights.  The FIM Speedway World Cup calendar will be established pursuant to Art. 20.1.2 of the FIM Sporting Code. Once the allocated date for the meeting is known, no other Track Racing meeting(s) can be staged at the venue five days prior to that date and until two days after.  4 To provide for postponements that may be necessary, for example because of weather conditions, the FMNR or the organiser must declare one re-staging date, with the exception of the Final event, where two dates must be declared.  The re-staging date or dates must always be as close as possible to the original date of the meeting. These shall be notified in the Supplementary Regulations (SR). If the meeting is postponed again and cannot be held on the re-staging date or dates, the meeting classification shall be decided according to the ranking-list (Art. 078.8.1). Highest team ranking, placed 1st; second highest team ranking, placed 2nd and so on.  The SWC Final Tournament has precedence over any other Track Racing meeting, with the exception of the Speedway Grand Prix meetings.  078.1.4.1 Re-staging or abandonment of a meeting If a SWC meeting is interrupted or suspended for any reason whatsoever, the following rules will apply:  1. If the meeting is interrupted before heat 15 is accomplished, and the remaining heats cannot be completed the same day, then the results are not taken into consideration and the whole meeting must be re-staged in accordance with Art. 078.1.4 – Dates of the meeting.  2. If the meeting is interrupted at any time after Heat 15 is accomplished and the remaining heats cannot be completed the same day, the results will be considered valid and the following will determine the meeting classification: The team with the highest number of points, considering the total number of points scored up to and including the last completed heat shall be declared the winner; the team with the second highest amount of scored points shall be declared second and so on. In the case of teams tied on points, precedence shall be given to the team having the greatest number of first, second, third, fourth (or fifth where applicable) places. If ties still persist, then precedence shall be given to the better-ranked team (see Art. 078.8.1).  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwineTown Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 Well that completely kills it for the UK audience - and people who don't have Sky or internet access won't, in most cases, be able to view it at the pub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
