ImpartialOne Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 So it's out of gates 1 and 2 then. Good chance for Lindback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Disappointing that Jonsson won it but he rode very well in the semi and final so well done to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manchesterpaul Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Chris Harris some 20 points out of the top 8 now eeeek! Was a fairly enjoyable GP in one way or another and as with most speedway meetings the racing improved dramatically on the early heats.

kenny bee firefly Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Presumably because of what i mentioned.....nobody ever turned up to watch lol. Wow and Hampel out too now what was he thinking in the semi-final ?? surely he knew that the faster line was near the fence !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salty Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 (edited) Certainly improved after a turgid start, with some good races. Loved Heat 20 between Gollob and Emil. Gollob looked underpowered tonight, which isn't the norm. Not sure what the regs are regarding Heat 14. Can't really blame the ref for not noticing the problem with the tapes from his side on view. If it's only going to come to light after a replay can the race be re-run? Zagar was good value as a wildcard.

Dornier Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Pleased to see Holder go out . Does anybody get fed up of seeing his face grinning into the camera . He never miss`s a single cue .!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImpartialOne Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 (edited) Great result for Greg after a disastrous start. 22 points up, it's now his for the taking and I hope he does it. Good to see Jonsson back to form and climb into the top 8. Lindback rode extremely well tonight and looks to be back on track, shame he choked it again in the final but I guess once a Pirate, always a Pirate.

spencebel Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Congrats to AJ. My best race was Emil getting the win, over the World Champ... I was very bored the first half , but the last few heats entertained... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always pretty much considered a rider, rather than a racer. By that I mean when he is leading, he looks fantastic, nice,smooth and positive, but once he hits third or fourth he just does not seem the same positive rider.

Never thought of it that way but now you mention he does seem a bit of a gater and looks lost when behind.

Why are you disappointed that Andreas won? I am just curious -- personally I love to see the ''oldies'' win as much as I do the ''youngsters'' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am just curious -- personally I love to see the ''oldies'' win as much as I do the ''youngsters'' Because I find him a bit bland. I would have loved to have seen Lindback win his first GP but he will eventually. Glad to see his form is getting bck to where it was several years ago after a string of personal problems. Hancock should have it in the bag now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
