Free World Cup Racecards - Event 2


Recommended Posts

The whole world now knows that Emil Sayfutdinov and the Laguta brothers are not riding tomorrow in Event 2. Sadly, with less that 24 hours to go, the official website still lists the team as originally billed! Clearly there are major alterations to be made in the Russian team.

 

There are now suggestions that the Russians will indeed have a fifth rider after all. Presently, we are looking at a four man line-up and a blank space in the programme. I think it was our friend Gray who first mentioned that they would then take tactical substitutions after the first round of races. As for whether the ridng order will be changed too, we can only wait and see.

 

Contrary to rumours surrounding Janusz Kolodziej the Polish team is now confirmed with the originally named five starting. The injured Dryml appears to have recovered too and will take his place in the Czech Republic side.

 

I'm pretty sure lots of fans download the racecards at work or elsewhere away from home during the day. Therefore, i will obviously seek to issue a racecard early afternoon at the latest. I could release one right now with the apparent Russian line-up of;

 

1. Roman POVAZHNY

2. Sergey DARKIN

3.

4. Renat GAFUROV

5. Ilya BONDARENKO

 

However, i'll hold back until tomorrow in the event we get a press release regarding the confirmed make up and riding order of the team. If no news is forthcoming by early tomorrow afternoon i'll issue one with the Russian team empty. Then, when the meeting comes on tv, or a last minute press release is forthcoming i WILL speedily add the Russian riders and immediately make it available for download.

 

If any of our overseas friends see official press releases before we do here in the UK, please be so kind as to give a heads-up. I'd like to make the card available for those on the European mainland if they should print out the cards during the working day.

On the team line-up page they now have

 

1. Roman Povazhny (Capt)

2. Sergey Darkin

3. lya Bondarenko

4. Renat Gafurov

5.

 

I'm just holding back an hour or so before releasing the racecard to see if any other established media sites confirm that is the riding order.

 

Update

Thanks Paul for update information. An alternative scorecard can be found at www.speedwayscorecards.net

 

You were probably like me waiting to set off out for the day lol. Gave me enough time to get enough food and 'liquid' in to provide for an army now, no doubt they'll finish it off anyway.

 

As ever sincere thanks to all expressing thanks. It's very good to see such a variety of cards avaialable to suit every taste too. Fingers crossed for a good, and ideally, successful meeting for the hosts tonight :party:
