Vincent Vega Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 How do you guys see this going tomorrow? I reckon it will be between us and Denmark and that we could sneak it and get in the final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 For me the Danes are the favourites but i can see GB getting close to them and Poland. Should be a cracking meeting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 (edited) The Danes will walk it with relative ease. We'll finish 3rd but at some point string together 4 or 5 good heats and everyone will think we'll qualify before reality sets in again. Obviously I hope we win by 20 points, i just can't see it sadly Edited July 11, 2012 by SCB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Hope Denmark do it for the reason that it would be reward for their youth policy and it is great seeing their kids take on the world.Hope Scott + the others give a good account of themselves and also the ref is not noticed.

Not sure what the Danes' team is yet but reckon it will be a close call between the Danes and Poles, with GB a stubborn 3rd.

JCookie Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 The Danes with Nicki should win it but I think England has a fighting chance, Poland aren't as good and Czechs are beatable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougieD Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 If the Danes bring in Nicki Pedersen then they will go thru, personally I think the experience of the GB Team will be enough. The other thing to consider of course is does any of the riders on show have this as there "home" track ? ... this could change things concerning set-ups for team mates etc. Made me laugh with Pearson saying this is a "horsepower" track, and your telling me Kings Lynn is not .. or did he just mean its a gaters paradise.Come on England !

pirateandi Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 (edited) Watched a meeting on premier plus couple of weeks back and Micheal jepsen jepsen was awesome beating holder , hancock , jonsson , lindgren with total ease was miles in front in a couple of heats and as this is his home track the danes for me will be hot favourites IMO !!

spanner47 Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Danes should walk it. As for our lot, Danny usually goes well in Sweden. Bomber may be useless in poland but also does well here. But from memory i cant ever remember Tai or Scott scoring big out there. We've had 2 very good meetings, here's hoping for another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spook Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 I hope they prove me wrong but I just cant see GB doing it........ at this level they have to be riding at their very best to even be in with a shout and rely on the other teams not getting into top gear....... the odds are against it............. With Andersen & Bjerre in the team the Danes would do very well at Malilla...... but there are question marks over their youngsters .... this year at least So for me its the Poles' night to lose................and if the going gets tough they always have those 'special engines' they can pull out the back of the vans 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPEEDY69 Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 It's difficult to predict this one with so many variables such as the condition of the track, the weather during the meeting and the vulnerabilities of four man teams. The GB boys will certainly be giving it their all. I think their gating consistency may let them down but here's hoping, everyone's beatable!

Blazeaway Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 England to be a distant third with lots of third places. Will go down to the last 4 heats between Poland and Denmark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_martin Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Has anyone seen the official line-ups yet? When did Team GB become "England"? Do I need to dash out quickly and buy new flags to take with me tomorrow? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racers and royals Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Has anyone seen the official line-ups yet? When did Team GB become "England"?

pandorum Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 The smart money is on 3rd but if the lads ride with the determination they showed on Monday and they can keep the gremlins at bay then who knows. There is nobody in the Polish and Denmark teams that is unbeatable. As long as they go down battling I will give them credit for trying. Let them know that we were there :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danes will win, Niels,Nicki and Michael all go good around Dackarna and Madsen is not a bad 4th rider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie B Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 The Danes may be favourites for the Race-Off. But I remember Australia in 1976, Denmark in 1978 and New Zealand in 1979 so why shouldn't we believe that we could make it to the final, and hopefully win it. We pushed the so-called favourites for the competition on Monday night. And if we had just a little bit of luck on Monday we would be in the final now.

foreverblue Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 If they put some dirt down like there was monday and we ride above ourselves like we did monday then we have a chance,i love the way they all rode monday showed that we can match anybody.On paper Denmark are clear favourites but all the teams can win races which will help us,impressed with Ales Dryml on monday no wonder he won the gp qualifier.
