Pinny Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 No fan of Tai but its superb to see a brit mixing it at the top Still baffled as to how he got invited back for the rerun of the semi... Completely took pedersen out. Should of been excluded without doubt Not sure on Ward but id put money on nicki lining up for the next gp... Still in with a big shout this year, two rostrums and a semi final to his name. Cant rule him out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of whether he took Nicki out, if you watch the replay closely, the red lights were on when they first came together, meaning by the time they crashed the race had already been stopped.

It was great that common sense prevailed, this is supposed to be entertainment after all.Such a pity in the Scunthorpe match the other night the same did not apply any doubt there should always be all 4 back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stratton Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 HE (Craig Ackroyd) didn't have that option Are you 100 per cent sure ?i wasn't and others on here have questioned it also any doubt surely all four back.On another day Woffinden would certainly have been excluded but it was a racing incident the supporter didn't suffer ended up with a terrific race.Are you sure you are not to biased toward,s Mr Ackroyd for me it was easier to get all 4 back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noggin Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 After a slow start the gp turned out to be excellent, with Emil entertainment personified, so sad to hear about his dad, really hope he can win it now for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILIPRISING Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 THE incident at Scunthorpe didn't occur on the first corner and once the race had been stopped the referee had to exclude someone "as the prime cause of the stoppage." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARK246 Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 THE incident at Scunthorpe didn't occur on the first corner and once the race had been stopped the referee had to exclude someone "as the prime cause of the stoppage." Strange you take this stance over that incident, yet you took a completely different view of the Holder, Pedersen crash in the GP series.If you want to be taken seriously as a poster you at least need to be consistent.

Bruiser McHuge Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 i only watched the last half of the GP and i thought some of the racing was fantastic, especially from Sayfutdinov who was sensational and also Tai as well ....the GP's are an amazing promotion for the sport at the moment.....even my 15 year old came in whilst in was on and started watching and was impressed....his words were "speedway is miles better on a big track isn't it "....i coan't argue with that...proper racing on a fast track by the world's elite has to be one of the best spectacles in world sport in my opinion....if only Elite League tracks and meetings could provide anything close to this and we would be fine....as it is the GP's are currently at another level and then some 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EC Rides Again Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 I think that I fell lucky as I tuned in from heat 14 onwards. Some good racing and glad to see some different names mixing it at the front. A bit of a shame that praise of Tai on the GP threads always seems to be rather grudging or else a little back-handed.

manchesterpaul Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 i only watched the last half of the GP and i thought some of the racing was fantastic.... Unfortunately many general sports fans and indeed speedway fans would have missed the superb racing as they turned off or changed channels. There were only four races in the first 50 minutes and the fare on offer was pretty dire for several more heats after that. For those of us who stayed with it (on the grounds that with speedway the racing only starts or gets better as the meeting goes on) we were rewarded for our loyalty with another great GP.

ytsejam Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Terrible news for Emil and thoughts go out to him and his family. Get well soon to Darcy and Nicki too. And yes, Woffenden should have been disqualified in the semi. He had 2 goes at Nicki before he managed to take him off. At least justice was done and Nicki got through to the final and Tai didn't.

The Know Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 After a fantastic last round this was a bit dull. Few very good races but track wasnt very good, commentary awful and was it spot a surporter night as could only see a few people there. Someone must be losing a lot of cash here. Plus side start girls shorts were pretty epic but what happened to the hair, must be a swedish thing i guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eglese 19 Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Didn't get to watch properly but my impression was that the riders did their best to put on a show with a poor track. Hopefully the tracks improve. Fair play to Emil and was sad to hear about his father. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
