2016 Speedway Gp Qualifiers


Recommended Posts

Hopefully is on my list then as I've decided not to attend in the best interests of the sport ;)

 

1 meeting I did want to see but can't get there.

 

Feel this will be 1 of the best meetings in years at the Arena

I've seen some conflicting results. Which one is the correct? Espeedway have Sundström as 8th with Thomesen 9th while Sportowefakty have Sundström as 9th with Thomesen 8th.

Then Sportowefakty have Vaculik 5th, THJ 6th and Lebedevs 7th. Espeedway on the other hand have THJ 5th and Vaculik 6th.

 

Which one is correct?

 

Accordingt o Spfy there have been two run offs, for 2nd place and for 8th. So I assume spfy is the correct? Run-offs resulted in

 

02. Bech 11+3

03. Lahti 11+2

04. Karpov 11+1

 

08. Thomesen 8+3

09. Sundström 8+2

10. Tarasenko 8+1

Since Harris is out and we all know well that Tai'ski is in fact an Aussie there's no Brit in BSI's tournament. Shame. I feel genuinely sorry for British fans of black sport. Hope BSPA will stick its finger out someday and try to do something good for the discipline.

Why do you care?Thought GPs were of no interest to you........probably because Poland have failed over the decades to produce world champions.Tai has as many titles as Polski. :rofl:

Look and weep,look and weep UK 11 world titles,Poland 2!!!!! :P:rofl::party:

 

And since the start of the GP series:

 

UK 3

Poland 1 ;)

 

PS Hopefully Bomber will get one of the wildcards for the semis - he certainly has better credentials than almost any other non-qualifier, as a former GP winner.

 

All the best

Rob

As much as I like and admire Bomber and want him to retain his GP status, finishing 11th. in a quarter final is not good enough to merit a wild card. As a top 8 finish is extremely unlikely we have to accept he will not be gracing the series next year.

 

I understand Rob's view but winning a GP 9 years ago does not really count for much. How many finals has Bomber appeared in since Cardiff 2007?. I shall be sorry to see him exit the series but sadly every rider has a "sell by" date.
