Poland 2016 Season Extraleague News


Recommended Posts

Earlier thsi year we spent an afternoon watching an open meeting at Poznan.

Based in huge park lands its an old track and a stadium from the 1930's which last saw racing a few years back

 

Huge track...which leads to great speeds but little passing. But the promoter is genuine and hard working and teh improved seating is well suited to say 6,000...but quite how many will travel from Wroclaw is open to debate.

 

We had a great welcome, and hopefully they will get decent crowds

Has anyone any concrete information on the reported amendments to points money in Polish league racing in 2016:

 

25% of points money paid if a rider finishes behind two opposition riders, i.e. when a heat score is 5-1 against; and

 

50% of points money paid if a rider takes a Tactical or Rider Replacement ride?

Looks as if the Div 1/2 plan above has been scuppered by TV requirements- TVP looking for an 8 team Div 1

Now confirmed that div 1 and 2 will be amalgamated in 2016-however it is all a bit of a farce as there will be 11 clubs but Rawicz and Opole will only race at home (10 matches)and away at the other club. more news when I have tried to fathom it all out !!!!!

Just to be clear - and for the uninitiated - does that mean the ExtraLeague (tier 1) stays as is and it is tiers 2 & 3 that are combining?

I am given to understand that the main fixtures will be out Thursday afternoon.

 

Thank you. In installments apparently. Anyone with a 3-day InterRail ticket for Poland will have a whale of a time on the weekend of 8-10 April. The rest though, we'll have to wait for.

 

Friday 8th April = Leszno v Stal Gorzow

Saturday 9th April = Grudziadz v Tarnow

Sunday 10th April = Ribnik v Torun & Mickey Mouse v Sparta Poznan Wroclaw
