iris123 Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) "In 2015, under contract with Motorcycle Federation of Russia the legal successor to the holding of competitions Ice Racing became Professional league of motosport. Unanimously honorary president of the League, was elected chief biker of country - Alexander Zaldastanov (Surgeon) - Head of the All-Russian motorcycle club. The main partner of the Professional League of motosport is public organization "Russian motorcyclists"." Well, that escalated quickly. Funnily enough I was expecting a few new faces to turn up.......but I thought they would start with the Ufa club itself.Moving a few friends into high places.But that is fast!!!! I was wondering today if there is more behind this than at first meets the eye.Is it maybe a way for the Night Wolves to parade through Berlin etc coming over as ice speedway delegates/officials?They wanted to parde through Germany into Berlin and were stopped.The boss has lived quite a while before in Berlin and has good contacts there.I wonder if we will see a Night Wolves convoy on the Berlin weekend Edited December 18, 2015 by iris123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WembleyLion Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 Same here in NL, not a sign of king winter to arrive. Think we will get the bad news info's from Steingaden/Weissenbach soon. I note the Santa Cup at Gavle due for 27 December was called off last week. Also I wonder if the league fixture at Stromsund on 2 January is off as it has disappeared from Svemo's fixture list! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been a warm autumn and although there will be a few days with subzero temperatures the nearest week and half that will not be enough to make a naturally frozen track.

A week ago they said it wasn't a problem so I don't know.

iris123 Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 Ufa meeting was a big propaganda event for the Night Wolves.Race jackets all bearing the Night Wolves emblem and instead of strangely dressed Russian women dancing during the intervals,we get Night Wolves videos showing them in Sevastopol,the annexed part of Ukraine,etc!!!!! Politics + sport eh?Still apart from that I think the fact we only have 3 meetings shws the drop in the sport even in the Russian heartland and a gap is opening up between the top and the also rans.All is not well in the sport of ice speedway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HenryW Posted December 26, 2015 Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 That was a very unexpected and heavy looking crash for Ivanov in his first race. There's been some good, close racing already in this meeting. Not so sure about the dancers currently out strutting their stuff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted December 26, 2015 Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 Yes,hope Daniil can carry on riding Agree Ht3 was fantastic And they ususally have better crazier dancing.But still preferable to Night Wolves propaganda films.Have a feeling we will be seeing more of that during the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk127 Posted December 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 Livestream for Togliatti day 1,starts in 35 minutes or so... Thanks for the link Iris 123. Racing is not bad but agree about the dancing but still a lot better than watching the usual Christmas tv repeats.

HenryW Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 How was the crowd on sat, did not look too good today...I haven't watched today's meeting yet so can't compare but the crowd yesterday looked fairly small in the areas you could see...lots of empty seats.It looked like pretty horrible weather, though, with fairly constant snow falling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
