Ghostwalker Posted May 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) A pretty good meeting by Smederna but PK's two Rs almost cost us the victory. I am still very unhappy about the track, very slick and fast along the white line, but outside its very thick and loose. Some heats are still very close and passing still happened but only on the inside. I think this is why AJ isn't that super hot, he isn't a good gater but relies on the ability to use the wider lines to gain extra speed, but when there aren't any wide lines to use he have bigger problems finding the necessary speed. Laguta, Buczek and Kenni were just as good as last week, AJ, Zorro and Berntzon were ok but PK needs to do better and two broken chains in two successive heats is not ok. For Smederna this means that PK will be at reserve next week and Kenni will move up, As mentioned Dennis Andersson had crash in heat 1 and did not ride anymore in the meeting. When he walked back to the pits it looked like his team mates sort of held him under his arms to give him some balance support. However reports afterwards said that he was ok. It seems Vetlanda will have a hard time defending their title, a new loss tonight at vs. Indianerna with 8p. Not sure what's wrong with them, if you look at what riders they have, you would think that they should do better. Vargarna still without a win and I think they're a bit to dependent on Nicki and since he is not riding they have a hard time. Västervik-Piraterna could have been a great meeting but the riders considered the visibility to be to poor for it to be safe. The problem was the fog the covered the arena and Greg H said that when he did a test lap it was really difficult to see where on the track he was and of course that is too dangerous. New date will be decided tomorrow. Edited May 21, 2013 by Ghostwalker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
