manchesterpaul Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 (edited) Usain Klindt again Is he Swedish or Polish.? Ghostwalker would know. Smederna and all that. Polish according to a most superb website for riders scores and meeting results. The rider page is http://speedwayresults.com/riders.php I always fear that the bloke doing the site will just collapse under the workload or lose interest. It's fantastic to check out how riders are scoring in their leagues and other meetings. You can also filter their scores by leagues etc. Heat 6 in case anyone not paying attention had MJJ as T/S. (5 wins out of 6 for gate 2 now with Wozza the exception) Edited August 14, 2013 by manchesterpaul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lastword Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 At the next break perhaps someone could explain the A,B,C classes as applied to team selection in Denmark? Seemingly no A rider for the home team, yet it looks an easy night for them so far. Do Danish teams drop their A riders like the Poles when the season is effectively lost, to cut costs? I know it's a different scene in Denmark v. Poland, but I suppose even these small clubs need to watch their outlay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandonbee48 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Polish-Bydgoszcz rider Thanks. You never know by the name these days. Caroline Woszniaki and all that!

manchesterpaul Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 MJJ nice 6 points there but graphics confusing. I'm sure it listed Lauridsen despite Kikkenborg being scheduled. I looked to see his race jacket number and think it was 4 (Kikkenborg) but i was at a distance. Oh well got to heat 7 without getting muddled. MJJ riding without helmet cover. Exclusion in UK? Was a joker double points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave those details once before and also the link for the full regulations for Danish speedway competitions. If nobody else links to them i'll post them later on, but i'm multi-tasking right now and i'm not a woman lol lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manchesterpaul Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Don't enjoy a meeting as much if I'm not filling in a prog. Just doesn't feel right, something missing And how's that working out for you with a Danish TV broadcast.....let me guess it's absolute hell lol. Don't ever trust the graphics. Go by your own eyes 100%. Do try to check the race jacket numbers in case of doubt and trust that you are likely to be right 99% of the time lol. Going to be a runaway home win, Jepsen Jensen apart. Any news on Linus? They talking about him now, one day Google Translate will automatically translate the audible words too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manchesterpaul Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 (edited) Graphics showing Klindt on 6 points and he's got 9. Confirmed by the fact their team total for Holsted is 3 points short on that graphic. They show them on 34 but their rider scores only total 31. NIce racing in heat 10. MJJ getting a very high percentage of his team's points tonight, to put it mildly. Goodness me that reminds me where is you know who? At the next break perhaps someone could explain the A,B,C classes as applied to team selection in Denmark? Seemingly no A rider for the home team, yet it looks an easy night for them so far. Do Danish teams drop their A riders like the Poles when the season is effectively lost, to cut costs? I know it's a different scene in Denmark v. Poland, but I suppose even these small clubs need to watch their outlay? All drivers are in season opener assigned a category (A, B, C or D), where A is the absolute top drivers, B-drivers are the drivers which is just below the absolute elite C-drivers are drivers with a certain experience while D-drivers primarily the new Danish talents. In order to create exciting race lays down rules for how the team should be composed of the day. Team total value shall be 24 and must be at least 19 Includes: A drivers with the value 8 B drivers with the value 6 C riders with the value 3 D drivers of value 1 There must be max. be an A-running team.* There must be max. to be three B-riders on the team. There must be max. be three drivers who are not Danish parent club and Danish license. The team must consist of at least a D-drivers or alternatively a U21-running Danish parent club and Danish license. *That might read as if a team must include an A rider. However, one presumes it means a maximum of one can take part. Google translate does have trouble with the little words, but God Bless them makes a speedway fans life so enriched and informed than it could ever be without them..
