moomin man 76 Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 As far as I am aware, Nike Lunna is the only Finnish representative in the qualifiers and he will ride in the semi-final at Belle Vue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 Wish all the lads success,but to me it seems the title winner has been given the hardest task in Pocking.Thought the British champ would get the home meeting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iris123 Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Quali in Denmark today, where was Mads Hansen? Isn't he still doing 250cc? Down for the 250cc YGT this season and dwn for 250cc meet in Brokstedt on 1.05 and done a 250cc meet a week or so ago here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats the Torun longtrack you mean? Is it Motoarena or something else? We had a slot for it as well, the date was given 6 weeks prior to the meet. Had to give it away.  Slightly offtopic, but 19 250cc riders, that's cool!  I believe Hansen will still only do 250cc racing this year. Thats the Torun longtrack you mean?

DutchGrasstrack Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 No I mean the Brokstedt event 14 Germans, 4 Danes and one from Norway. Â The Longtrack 250cc meeting in Torun will be held in the motoarena, same as the 125 meeting. Looking forward to both events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just noticed his name on a German league meeting this year... Not that it matters, but he's apparently on 500cc as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure?I think they are having 250cc heats as well,as they have done for a few seasons.Maybe he is in those heats.If you look it is generally the same 4 riders against each other 3 or 4 times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johannes is injured though. Broke a finger during practice (IIRC) and will be sidelined for another three weeks or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
