Bavarian Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 The top four or five excepted, the quality of the riders is very poor. This is just too easy for Mr. Krasnikov The run D, C, B , and A finals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 Bauer does need to gate better though.From what I have seen so far he isn't that fast from the start and with a better standard it won't be so easy to pass.But a super international debut..

DutchGrasstrack Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 Crowd looked very sparse in Almaty! Any figures on how many were there? Very small crowd at GP3 indeed... Meeting dragged on for over 4 hours and the racing was quite boring due to the bad ice. Today was much much better! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bavarian Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 Charly Ebner went flying when leading in the B final - he seems unhurt, though. Great stunt. Now Bauer jr. should win the re-run against Jetsonen and Saetre no luck for Bauer jr he stopped with an engien problem in the B-final Now for the A final with Krasnikov vs Simon vs Klatovsky adn vs the second Russian Krasnikov untroubled, but a good fight behid him until Klatovsky fell.

Conkers Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 European Final Results: Day 1 (Heat scores in brackets) D Final: Nikita Toloknov (Russia) (3), Igor Saydullin (Russia) (3), Radek Hutla (Czech Rep) (3) Robert Ruzicka (Czech Republic) (2) C FINAL: Mikael Flodin (Sweden) (5), Josef Kreuzberger (Austria) (5), Jussi Nyronen (Finland) (5), Jimmy Olsen (Sweden) (5) f B FINAL: Mikko Jetsonen (Finland) (8), Jo Saetre (Norway) (6), Luca Bauer (Germany) (11) ef, Charly Ebner Jnr. (Austria) (11) fx A FINAL: Nikolai Krasnikov (Russia) (15), Harald Simon (Austria) (13), Dmitri Solyannikov (Russia) 12, Antonin Klatovsky (Czech Rep) (12) Also Rode: Michal Behal (Czech Rep) (1), Beat Dobler (Switzerland) (0) Go to agree, top 4 apart racing was a bit processional. Simon did go slightly inside the blue line in the A Final, but the referee (who I believe is Jim Lawrence) either didn't see it or let it go. Russian Forum a little up in arms about it. Rather impressed with Solyannikov who is the Under 21 Champion. Looked a bigger crowd at Ufa than normal too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iris123 Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) Another Russian ice racing rider: https://www.instagram.com/p/BCEAc1rP9M1/ Yes,i saw that Greg was back on the ice,alongside some of those Russian riders I thought were missing from the season like Akimenko and Baraboshkin.Think Laguta scored about 5pts.But wonder if there has been some sort of break with those riders in the far east or is it just down to finances that they didn't compete in the Russian championship.Eduard Krysov won the meeting if my memory is correct Link for day 2 of the Euro Finals in Ufa.Start in just under an hour https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PcvKQbeYKQ&feature=share&app=desktop Krasnikov wins easily.Not really troubled the whole 2 days.Again not a good meeting.The only exciting parts were Luca Bauer passing Ebner jr and the guy in the crowd who slipped and fell just when the camera was on him ....Simon fell whilst leading on the last bend of the run-off for silver.Looked like Solyannikov wasn't happy on the first lap.Seemed as if he was indicating Simon kicked him out of the way on the first bend,but got going again and put pressure on Harald,though why he fell I have no idea.He seemed t be cruising on the inside a bit to easily.Good crowd though. 1.N.Krasnikov 2.D.Solyannikov 3.H.Simon Edited February 22, 2016 by iris123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WembleyLion Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) Otterbäcken is an artificial ice track, so unless it gets extremely warm, we will not have to worry about that one. Hi Jonas - It's a real shame it is cancelled. http://www.laget.se/OtterbackensBK/news/4448336/Tyvarr-ingen-isracing-pa-Otterstrand I think they are trying to run it at the Canvac Arena Mariestad though!

Jonas H Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Hi Jonas - It's a real shame it is cancelled. http://www.laget.se/OtterbackensBK/news/4448336/Tyvarr-ingen-isracing-pa-Otterstrand I think they are trying to run it at the Canvac Arena Mariestad though! Yes, obviously costs to create sufficient ice at Otterbäcken became too high. Very strange decision to switch it to another venue with just 10 days left to the event. The plan is now to stage the pairs final at the Mariestad speedway track. The date will be the same, March 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug?? Doubt it.Will be a spontaneous decision based on what my kids are doing.I have the Assen weekend free,but again that will be a day before decision based on weather,because we have a great speedway meeting on that weekend with Nicki P and Emil etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
