Ghostwalker Posted September 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 I watched this with my old man who doesn't care at all about Speedway. Heat 14 even woke him up. Riders like Emil make speedway more exciting. I'm not sure if his health is still the reason he doesn't do GPs, but if tonight was him not at full fitness then... If it's a money issue, sponsors should be beating his door down. He could easily get more people watching speedway. Most people believe that the reason for his absence is due something else then lack of funds or etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krompa Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) Yes, correct, there will be a race off heat. Each team nominates one rider+reserve, Winner of heat wins the total.(rule 10.1.7.1). I don't know about much THJ's private life except that he and his then gf, got married this summer and they also have 1 or 2 kids together. Besides from that I don't know of anything regarding his private life. One rider + reserve? So it is not for example Emil vs. Antonio? 2 pairs of riders? What if 3-3? Another pair? Edit: just found it myself. Pair of riders vs. pair of riders. If 3-3 then another 2 pairs, if another 3-3 remaining pairs (7th rider is reserve in case of tape exclusion/injury). If 9-9 after 3 heats then 4th is the last one and it is old style 1 on 1. Could be very exciting! I would call them sudden death championship heats.

Panthers89 Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Best lap and a half ever seen from Emil, even yelled like kelv at the missus, ooohhhh what a move! Impressive as hell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoFastTurnLeft Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Most people believe that the reason for his absence is due something else then lack of funds or etc. Whatever the reason, it's a real shame. World speedway needs riders like him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If 9-9 after 3 heats then 4th is the last one and it is old style 1 on 1. Could be very exciting! Sorry I looked at the wrong rule. The correct rule (* 10.1.8 Skiljeheat vid samma antal förarpoäng i Race Off:) says: Skiljeheat vid samma antal förarpoäng i Race Off: I händelse av att båda lagen har uppnått samma antal förarpoäng efter de båda mötena skall skiljeheat genomföras för att fastställa vilket lag som vinner. Skiljeheat skall genomföras i maximalt 3 heat med 2 nominerade förare från respektive lag i s.k. ”sudden death”. Innan skiljeheaten tar sin början skall respektive lagledare nominera 3 par i sitt lag. Paren skall nomineras i den ordning de avses att användas. Hemmalaget nominerar sina förare först.Den förare som inte nomineras är reserv för övriga förare vid uteslutning på grund av Touch the Tape eller för förare som är startberättigad i eventuell omstart men inte kan delta,dock endast en (1) gång. Om det blir oavgjort i det första skiljeheatet genomförs ytterligare ett skiljeheat med nästa nominerade par, osv. Om ställningen efter 3 skiljeheat fortfarande är oavgjord nominerar respektive lagledare 1 förare + 1 reserv för denne som genomför ett fjärde och avgörande skiljeheat, enligt SR 5.5. So 2 riders from each team in maximum 3 heats. Whatever team first gets a heat point advantage (3-0,3-2,4-2,5-1,5-0) wins the total.

New Science Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 BSI should find big sponsors for Emil right now to attract him to be back. They NEED him (BSI), we NEED him to love GP series again! Think that would be a conflict of interests ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Smith Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 Poor meeting, Top riders doesn't make good racing. Rather watch juniors. I seem to remember you saying the Belle Vue playoff was a good meeting and now you're saying this was poor?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenny bee firefly Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 I seem to remember you saying the Belle Vue playoff was a good meeting and now you're saying this was poor?!?!

mothorsen Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 Insane! Found myself swearing and laughing alongside the commentators on that unbelievable move from Sayfudinov! That's the best I've seen in ages. Looking forward to this evenings clash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BWitcher Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 I seem to remember you saying the Belle Vue playoff was a good meeting and now you're saying this was poor?!?! I wasn't serious Screamer It was a bit of sarchasm at those who tell us how the racing is just as good at NL level etc.. Nothing can bit the very best riders going at it like that. Now onto Emil again.. whilst everyone is salivating over his brilliant ride, which it was from lap 2 onwards... they are totally forgetting its a TEAM event... Emil wiped out his partner in that race, turning what was at worst a 3-3, more likely a 4-2 to Vetlanda as Emil would have passed Lindback ok.. into a 3-3. Hence, costing his team 2 pts... will those 2pts be vital when its all said and done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BWitcher Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) Any team news yet for tonights meeting? Edited. Seen Ghostwalkers earlier post now, thanks GW! Edited September 16, 2015 by BWitcher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BWitcher Posted September 16, 2015 Report Share Posted September 16, 2015 Still no lineups... According to the article GW posted earlier in the thread its R/R for Ljung, which means all bar Emil and Zmarzlik can take rides. Indianerna same 7 I would assume. The odds offered by Bet365 concur with that, Woffinden Over 13 for example compared to Emil Over 11. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
