DutchGrasstrack Posted January 7, 2015 Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 Events from Assen and Inzell were broadcasted on Eurosport in Holland, and also in other countries. They had live shows on Eurosport 2, and replays on the normal Eurosport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DutchGrasstrack Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Supplementary regulations have been updated now that Stromsund has taken over from Hallstavik. Also a little change in the entries: SVEMO will take over one of the KNMV places (sadly). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DutchGrasstrack Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) Russian federation is not amused that the Russian championship is not realy a qualifier for the Ice GP's anymore. FIM nominated Kononov and Makarov already for Sankt Johann (and Ivanov, Koltakov, Khomitsevich for the GP's).Real reason below   Here's by the way the lineup for Stromsund:1. Niclas Kallin Svensson (SE)2. Max Niedermaier (DE)3. Franz Zorn (AT)4. Antonin Klatovsky (CZ)5. Miroslaw Daniszewski (PL)6. René Stellingwerf (NL)7. Jo Saetre (NO)8. Ove Ledström (SE)9. Hans Weber (DE)10. Charly Ebner jr (AT)11. Daniel Henderson (SE)12. Tomi Tani (FI)13. Markus Birn (CH)14. Vitaly Khomitsevich (RU)15. Jimmy Olsen (SE)16. Mats Järf (FI)--17. Mikael Flodin (SE)18. Robert Henderson (SE)  Not easy to predict the top 8, very strong lineup. Edited January 13, 2015 by DutchGrasstrack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchGrasstrack Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) According to a diffrent Russian source it appears that the Russian federation believes they can replace Makarov for a other Russian rider because he can't ride (health problems). Surely this does not work this way IMO. Edited January 13, 2015 by DutchGrasstrack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely this does not work this way IMO. It's a difficult situation, if it goes like you said: FIM has nominated a Russian RIDER, not an FMN seed like in other disciplines. Â If it were a FMN seed, there would be no problem. Thats not apparently the case though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchGrasstrack Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 I think they have to go down the 2014 standings to find a replacement for Makarov. Â FIM updated the Sankt Johann regulations, not sure what changed by they seem to believe that it will still go ahead I guess. Weather forcast looks so-so to me.
