pawel115 Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Second half of this meeting much better than beginning pretty entertaining glad to see Emil win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BWitcher Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Great ride from Emil in the final.... but.. Holder did give it him. As he did in the earlier race they had. All Holder had to do was keep it out wide (which he was doing) and Emil had no way by.. Stupidly Holder rode round the middle of the track in 1 & 2 on lap 4 and left the door wide open for Emil to sail by! Great entertainment in the latter stages of the meeting though.

And a real schoolboy error doing it twice! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dornier Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Well it started off poor but wow did it get going, some great racing and really pleased Emil did it again, on this form Emils heading to be world champ and I think it would be a popular outcome, hes super skilled. I`ve no sympathy for Ward 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmy jimmy Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Sometimes it is difficult to make the right call when a faster rider is crawling all over you. He did the same to Pedersen in the semi final. On his day, the 21st century Peter Collins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salty Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Delighted to see Emil winning again. Very much deserved, 3 best rides of the night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike1944 Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) With Emil chasing any rider just to make a prediction from which direction he come from next is a big problem, that guy just does not stick to one line, inside, outside, every which way, making the rider being chased very hard to cover him. His track skill is terrific. This GP started of a procession but as the meeting went on got more and more exciting with more overtaking. Great pity about Ward, hope his injury is not as bad as a broken collar bone. Edited May 4, 2013 by mike1944 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On his day, the 21st century Peter Collins Agreed, very reminiscent of PC, can ride any part of the track, seems to find traction where others can't, amazing balance, I also love seeing him race. As said, another decent GP in the end, really enjoying this series so far, can't really grumble at the coverage, the shouty brothers are still muted by Eurosport, I can tolerate the boring fill-in guy because the racing is, on the whole, of decent standard. Never been a big fan of Pedersen and his antics but you cannot fault him for tenacity and courage, when clearly in so much pain and on lap 4 of a final he definitely wasn't going to win I wouldn't have blamed him if he'd retired and saved himself having to spend the next 15mins on the rostrum and riding on the back of a cabriolet, giving interviews etc etc. Fair play to him, he's a very tough bloke, hope he and Ward are soon on the mend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spencebel Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Congratulations to Emil. Well done Wish that Tai had made the final, looks like he will have a black eye. That was a very nasty crash. Hope all riders are better soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like Ward, but he's a brilliant rider, a great addition to the series. I hope he's not too badly injured and we'll see him back riding soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILIPRISING Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 EMIL'S father died this evening ... apparently just about the same time as he was winning in Gothenburg. Very emotional for such a young lad, who incidentally is a smashing kid. Our thoughts go out to him and his family. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
