george.m Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 Clearly Doyle has a few things to learn about riding in the GPs, and he isn't learning too quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 I'm sure that tonight was hard on all of the riders..... It was very hard to see Chris Holder so broken... Am I alone in thinking that there was an attitude towards one particular rider tonight? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 Excellent GP. Awful move from Doyle who is over riding to try and stay with the pack. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 Now that's what you call a gp! Those who bang on about Cardiff being great must have exploded watching this. give these guys a race track they can provide this. Huge respect to Holder 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lioness Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Have just watched tonight's GP and have to agree Gavan. Good track, quickly developed quite a few lines, some great races and a final befitting a GP final with all 4 still potentially in the mix going into the final lap. That was entertainment. Only downside was the accident that saw Nicki out of the meeting but that was just a misjudgement on a fast track I of. How Zagar and Pedersen were able to walk back after it heaven knows but relieved they did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldRacer Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 I thoroughly enjoyed that meeting. Having a track that allows the riders to really race reminds me why I love this sport. Hopefully Nicki's concussion isn't too serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waiheke1 Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Great meeting. Anyone know roughly how far through the coverage the holder interview is? Watched the meeting a couple of hours delayed and fast fwded between heats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmo Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 The Holder interview is right near the end, after the semis I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lioness Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 It's also very brief waihekeaces1 as they did have the decency to cut away from him as soon as they realised it was too upsetting for him. There are many different types of bravery and he certainly showed that last night by riding for his friend in the way he did 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidncohen Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Excellent GP, made for great TV. How many GPs like this are there in a season? Not enough! Would still like to see them straight back to the tapes on a re-run, or at least 2 mins come on earlier, especially when it's just an "unsatisfactory" start. Battle for 2nd and 3rd place really hotting up now - Hancock coming into better form. Great advert for the sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigcatdiary Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Very good GP and some excellent racing. Woffinden now putting some daylight between him and the rest, some of his overtakes are breathtaking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Great GP with proper speedway and a truly worthy winner especially after having to pick himself off the deck. Tai Woffinden`s title to lose now, and he will be a worthy World Champ. Obviously this week emotions have been running high with the plight Darcy Ward finds himself in, but I thought it was disgraceful to see Tai effing and blinding during his interview last night, surely he could've sent his best wishes to Ward without the bad language. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OveFundinFan Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 , but I thought it was disgraceful to see Tai effing and blinding during his interview last night, surely he could've sent his best wishes to Ward without the bad language. and what was all the gesturing in his heat with Zmarlick, and he did something similar to Kasprezak this last week too. Is he getting a bit above himself.??? I remember a saying once told to me. "Be careful who you tread on as you climb the ladder of success...... you may meet them on the way down". 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Chris Holders interview may have been a short one, but it spoke a thousand words. Huge respect to the guy just for turning up never mind the way he raced. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undercover Elephant Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Excellent racing last night which was an absolute treat to watch at 3am. Tai in Heat 4 and 11 I think it was with Pedersen was superb to watch unfold. I thought Doyle was far too eager to nip up the inside and wipe out NP and MZ. A couple of incidents recently involving Doyle haven't gone unnoticed comparing him to Nicki's rougher style. Hope to see more of Bart next season. Just wonder if they'll be looking at him as a possible wild card next season. Holder showed tremendous character riding in the meeting. In hindsight I suspect Steve should have left him alone in the end. I think realistically two more good rounds from Tai should be enough to complete the job for the remaining fixtures leading to Australia.

Ghostwalker Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Zmarzlik will be in the GP-challenge next week so he have a good chance of qualifying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratton Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 A real good night terrific racing,Tai awesome tonight a great track (puts our tracks and facilities to shame)and a great crowd.Iversen,Zmarzlik,Kildemand,Zagar all rode well at times tonight speedway was the winner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Lady Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 In hindsight I suspect Steve should have left him alone in the end. I would guess Chris had agreed to it being a professional, however it would have been much better IMHO to have taped an interview some time before the meeting and shown that.
