TrueBee Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 What's everybody's thought on Hancock's tweet after the meeting? "@GregHancock45: 2 top people in Polish Speedway broke their trust & respect to the Rest of The World Team today! They know who they are!! Bummer for them" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bavarian Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 It was a great meeting, everyone enjoyed it and the best thing was that both teams really wanted to win it. Per Jonsson was not amused with the performances of Toninho and Vaculik. Very enjoyable end-of-season all star event, with some very exciting racing in a fantastic stadium and in front of a big crowd. This Poland v Rest of the World had something of the old magic and glamour that Test Matches used to have a long time ago. TV Polonia showed this live on their free channel. I hope this can be the beginning of a revival for top class international test matches in speedway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope this can be the beginning of a revival for top class international test matches in speedway.

Bavarian Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Must say i haven't heard of Marcucci. Marcucci is a local substitue for teh injured German rider Max Dilger. Smolinski and Dilger were booked for the Auburn meeting, but two days before their flight to California, Dilger broke his collar bone in the German Bundesliga final at Landshut.
