iris123 Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 (edited) Isn't it a strategy Denmark have used before?Thought they(previous management)like the idea of getting track time in at the Race-Off.Always a gamble and taking the p slightly out of their home crowd.Hope lots of tickets already sold Edited July 11, 2016 by iris123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Wow what a weird line up for Denmark. Â Love the look of the Polish and Russian sides! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Science Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Are the Danes having a laugh ?. Who in there right mind would want to go into the race off . If the Russians win in Event 1 (not impossible) they could be lumped in the race off with Poland , probably Australia and USA with only 1 place available. Absolute madness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waiheke1 Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Can't really judge it by that as only cook and Harris have rode as a heat leader the whole time the rest haven'tOK but on what basis did you say he was the highest averaged brit?Pretty sure lambert has ridden most of his meetings as hl, so even if you weighted averages I would suggest cook is only 3rd.

foreverblue Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 WE could do with Nicki P and Peter K ... not sure about that after their Cardiff gp performances, perhaps someone stuck sponges in their tanks too!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockster Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 I've had a little bet on the Russians. Very strong top 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 Credit to Lemon for going with Masters and Fricke.  Sweden stick with old faithful line up  Germany no surprise  And USA, Janirro and Fisher in the same side, amazing!

Hunting66 Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 Hi, I'm looking for 2 tickets for the speedway World Cup final and race off, would prefer standing terrace or west stand tickets. I believe I am right in saying there is only east stand tickets available online? If anyone has any tickets for sale which or not east stand 3/4 bends please let me no I will be very interested. Many thanks. 07590106630 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunting66 Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 Looking for 2 tickets for the speedway World Cup final and race off. Would prefer standing terrace tickets or west stand/main stand, not so keen on the east stand 3/4 bend which seems to be all that is left?! If anyone has any tickets for sale or can point me in the right direction to get tickets would be grateful. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Fricke is flying this year and could not be ignored. The Swedes and Poles are impressed by him. Was chatting to a Rospigana fan on Saturday and he was waxing lyrical about Fricke. Asked him about future Swedes and he rolled his eyes back and told me all hopes are pinned on Thorssell and if he doesn't do anything AJ could have 10 more years in the GP series.  Really hoping the Americans make the race-off! I'll be an American for the day with Fisher and Janniro in the team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveZodiac Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 I've had a little bet on the Russians. Very strong top 3.  The Russians do look strong but the problem is their riders don't always turn up. My preferred England team 1. Tai 2. King 3. Nicholls 4.Harris Reserve Lambert  As I understand it the Reserve has to be a rider who is in the Under 21 Championship - not sure if Lambert qualifies on those terms but if he does he is an obvoius choice from there.  If he doesn't qualify I would pick him in preference to Harris who doesn't seem to get on with the Belle Vue track.

OveFundinFan Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 (edited) The reserve has to be under 21 PERIOD. Nothing in the rules that say they they must be in the under 21 world championship. Ans the reserve can only replace a rider ho has been injured. So Lambert at reserve is senseless as he will only ride if team mate gets injured. He is too good for reserve unlikely to get a ride.

Â Surely it's better to field your strongest team on your home track, to give yourself a better chance of going straight through to the final. Alright they'll get track time in the race-off, but they will still be up against Poland or Russia, who will be tough to beat even with their strongest team. It makes more sense to give yourself two decent chances to qualify rather than just one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like the meeting on the fri for the last place has the possibility of being a better meeting than the final. I have found this to be the case a few times.

Guest GiveusaB Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Apologies if this has already been discussed? But can anyone advise if there's local street parking for Belle Vue, or is the train the best bet? Was thinking of parking at Ryder Brow and getting train from there to avoid crowds/congestion - trying to be clever by avoiding Manchester Piccadily ?
