Danish Gp In Horsens 08.08

Well that was clear to me that Woffinden should not have been excluded.....just because a rider goes down when passed on the inside doesn't mean the inside rider HAS to be excluded....that was a clean pass and Kildemand has such a weird balancing style of riding that he can never withstand an inside pass and will always go down......only one exclusion for me there and it wasn't Woffinden !

They always seem to exclude the inside pass in these situations I agree with you on this one Kildemand goes down very easily.He is an entertainer rider though and is always good on slick tracke that suit his style.Tai took it well probably because of the situation on the night more than anything.

Well done Tai. He struggled all night but still managed to make the final on another disappointing temporary track.

And his interview was worthy of a world champion, taking on the chin what was a dubious decision to say the least.

I would love to know what he really said to Kildemand afterwards.

As for the winner, I have always enjoyed watching Kildemand, but I am not sure if it because of his low style on the bike (as Tatum highlighted in the last GP ) that he is more susceptible to coming off.

Tonight is not the first time we have seen him bail out when a tussle isn't going his way.

Well done PK on a good win in the end, but don't think Tai was at fault.

 

PK was out wide and came in onto Tai, but maybe the fact that Woffy lifted slightly just before influenced the ref.

 

Great for Woffinden, though, despite that. He looked in trouble after 4 rides but kept a cool head as usual.

 

Didn't even seem bothered that he'd been unfairly excluded. Just happy to have increased his lead.

Yes, I don't think Woffinden made too much of a fuss because the refs never change their mind , but mainly he looked like going out before the semis and then made the final and had already increased his lead so it was already an excellent night for him.........still a wrong decision though !

 

Kildemand is an exciting rider to watch though with his balancing style ..he always looks likely to fall with that style and must be a nightmare to try and pass on the inside

Bit of a pity it seems my stream totally missed Doyle cocking up his semi and the interviews were only coherent right at the end.GP warmed up as it went along,but the track really isn't good for speedway despite what Tatum was saying about it being a good stadium for motorsport!!!! :blink:

 

Which heats did Harris use the Gerhard then?

Most undeserving winner in a long time. Surprised he stayed on the bike

Gutted for Janowski & Doyle who were the best riders on the night.

they were both in winning positions when they messed up on there own don't think that qualifys for best riders on the night.They rode well though.Zager was a touch unlucky IMO

Track very much like Cardiff and racing there didnt warm up till later in the meeting, just like tonight

Like Cardiff the track didnt seem to cut up tonight - moral is:- prepare the track more then a week before the meeting.

PK is getting to be a big "yawn", falling off at a whim and fancy. Time to start excluding him when he is clearly the problem most of the time. PK should have been excluded and not Tai.

Shame Doyle didnt make the final, could have been his night.

 

Meeting was run pretty slick overall, obviously the falls took its toll on time but that cant be helped.

 

Looks like as long as Tai doesnt suffer any injuries (just keep clear of PK would help) then it could be his this year.

I was surprised Nicki didnt perform too well tonight - seems to have lost some of his fire.

Zagar more than a touch unlucky. Got wiped out in the Kildemand/Pedersen crash - his semi was stopped when he was clear 2nd - the final was stopped when he was away in front.

Agree but these situations are not uncommon in Gp's.He looked fast though just got caught in wrong position in final re-run.
