Ghostwalker Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 Preview Swedish Elitserien 2014, round 12 Televised meeting: Ikaros Smederna - Rospiggarna, live at Eurosport 1 18.00 BST / 19.00 CEST / 20.00 EEST Race card: https://www.mediafire.com/?rlfuf6yr9g49gb8 Current standings: http://www.svemo.se/sv/Grenar/Speedway/Elitserien2014/Serietabell/ Live results: http://www.svemo.se/sv/Grenar/Speedway/ Ikaros Smederna – Rospiggarna: Ikaros Smederna Davey Watt Pawel Przedpelski Grzegorz Zengota Oliver Berntzon Peter Karlsson Mikkel Michelsen Magnus Zetterström Rospiggarna Andreas Jonsson Jonas Davidsson Kim Nilsson Timo Lahti Mads Korneliussen Chris Harris Andzejs Lebedevs Smederna are currently in 7th place, they have lost the latest meetings in the final heats. Partially becasue of coaching errors (not using the reserves to the max). With Kenni and Laguta unavailable because of injury, Smederna probably will struggle tonight. I predict that Rospiggarna will take the win and the aggregated bonus point. Jonas Daviddson is listed but I don't if he will ride or if they will use R/R. I think he will ride though. Västervik – Indianerna: Västervik Krzysztof Kasprzak Tomasz Jedrzejak Hans Andersen Tobiasz Musielak Peter Ljung Mathias Thörnblom Ludvig Lindgren Indianerna Fredrik Lindgren Cameron Woodward Piotr Protasiewicz Antonio Lindbäck Niels-Kristian Iversen Joel Andersson Mikael Max Västervik are in 8th and last place and in their final home meeting this season. They are 7p behind Smederna and need to win all of their remaining meetings and also win the aggregated bonus point in at least two of those wins, to pass Smederna. Indianerna have been very strong at home but have not been doing that good at away meetings. I think that Västervik might have a chance at winning this but it will be tough. Piraterna – Dackarna: Piraterna Greg Hancock Bjarne Pedersen Matej Zagar Linus Sundström Darcy Ward Anton Rosén Fredrik Engman Dackarna Joonas Kylmäkorpi Alexander Loktaev Nicki Pedersen (K) Michael Jepsen Jensen Krzysztof Buczkowski Dennis Andersson Robin Aspegren This will probably be the best/most exciting meeting this week, too bad that it is not televised. Piraterna and Dackarna are both fighting to stay within top 6. I think Piraterna will win this and secure a place in the play offs. Elit Vetlanda – Vargarna: Elit Vetlanda Tai Woffinden Emil Sajfutdinov Jaroslaw Hampel (K) Tomas H Jonasson Bartosz Zmarzlik Jacob Thorssell Magnus Karlsson Vargarna Peter Kildemand Jason Doyle Martin Vaculik Daniel Davidsson Adrian Miedzinski Ricky Kling Pontus Aspgren I think that there isn't really that much to say about this one, if Vetlanda do their job, they should be able to take a comfortable win.

SteveLyric2 Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 No Holder for Piraterna?? Or is Zagar still contracted to cover?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostwalker Posted August 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) No Holder for Piraterna?? Or is Zagar still contracted to cover?? Holder despite being fit to ride have to wait until next week since the rules for replacement of long-time injures rider, says that a replacing rider stays in the squad for a minimum of 28 days regardless if the rider he/she replaces returns from injury earlier then 28 days. Holder will be back next week since it is 28 days on Monday next week. Edited August 5, 2014 by Ghostwalker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostwalker Posted August 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) Weather going to affect the matches Ghost? Maybe, maybe not, its hard to say at the moment. you can follow the rain at : http://www.smhi.se/vadret/nederbord-molnighet/radar-blixt-sverige-1.27021 For Smederna-Västervik there is allot of smoke in the area from the massive forest fire about 60km north-northeast from Smederna's track. I don't know if this will affect the meeting. However if the visibility is too low the meeting cannot go ahead. A meeting in Västervik got postponed last season due to fog, so there is a risk that the smoke will affect Smederna's meeting.

Ghostwalker Posted August 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 Vetlanda have the track covers on but a larger rain weather moving in from the south over Småland so the Vetlanda and Västervik might be affected. Possible also the meeting in Motala, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brandonbee48 Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 It says a lot about British Speedway when Chris Harris rides at reserve in Sweden! And not a great one at that! Not a "thrilla" but a good meeting so far. Nip and tuck. Davy Watt and PK need to gas it or Smederna may run out of resources towards the end.

LagutaRacingFan Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 So Emil donated his points money tonight to Tai's charity GOSH. What a guy, How much must that roughly be? Emil must be doing well financially, especially well with no SGP's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostwalker Posted August 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) Tonight's result means that Västervik will finish last and will be demoted to Allsvenskan unless the winner of Allsvenskan's promotion cup declines to advance to Elitserien. Indianerna, Vargarna, Smederna and Dackarna are all involved in the battle for the 4th-6th place which means play offs. current standings: 4. Indianerna 568 - 511 15p 5. Dackarna 507 - 568 13p 6. Smederna 521 - 557 12p 7. Vargarna 526 - 550 11p If we then look at the remaining meetings and try to predict results I think we might see some thing like this: Round 13: Vargarna - Västervik Vargarna win and bonus Vargarna 14pIndianerna - Ikaros Smederna Indianerna win and Bonus Indianerna 18p Smederna 12pDackarna - Elit Vetlanda Elit Vetlanda win and bonus Dackarna 13p Round 14: Dackarna Rospiggarna Dackarna win and bonus Dackarna 16pPiraterna Indianerna Piraterna win Indianerna bonus Indianerna 19pIkaros Smederna Vargarna Smederna win, Vargarna bonus, Smederna 14p, Vargarna 15p This will result in a final standings like this; 4.,Indianerna 19p 5. Dackarna 16p 6. Vargarna 15p 7. Smederna 14p. Edited August 5, 2014 by Ghostwalker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racers and royals Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Sad to see Antonio Lindback`s performance yesterday 0 from 4 rides-seemed to be ok in Poland on Sunday in the televised match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
