Ghostwalker Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 Last year Mikkel Michelsen got the Wildcard with MJJ in the series-will MJJ get the nod this year ? IMO that would be the proper choice. Michelsen have been ice cold so far this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawkins20 Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 I think MJJ had many chance to prove himself, now he should find his form and get back in the GP on his own. Id like to see Thomsen in the GP he looks promising and only 20 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILIPRISING Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 ON current form Hans Andersen deserves consideration. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OveFundinFan Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 should bomber give his place up for Freddie? I would love him to, but he is not obliged to - as others will quickly say "he earned his place", which is very true, but sadly is not doing the GPs any good. 2 x3 points so far, cant see it getting much better.

bruno Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Don't get me wrong I'm a bomber fan but on Saturday he only earned one point and was off the pace,he's gating was worse than ever. He's not going to get in the top 8 so might be better to give it up now, can't be doing he's confidence any good or he's bank balance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was quite obvious something mechanical was wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's face it, looking at this season's field Harris was online ever likely to finish 14th-16th. But there is no disgrace in being 15th in the world at something! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OveFundinFan Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 I thought Chris Harris changed his team through the winter, for the better he was proclaiming. Seems like the opposite to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sancho Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 If he had done the practice session he would have discovered the dodgy equip then, wouldn't he? And then face the wrath of the BSF for not turning up to British Semi Final Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pugwash Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 And then face the wrath of the BSF for not turning up to British Semi Final I don't think that the wrath of the bsf would be a cause for concern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Chris Harris changed his team through the winter, for the better he was proclaiming. Seems like the opposite to me.Think its pretty much the same as last year as in mechanics and engine tuner. He changed his crew at the start of last year after some issues.If he had done the practice session he would have discovered the dodgy equip then, wouldn't he?He couldn't. He was told he had to ride one of the semis or have no chance of riding for the British title. Friday was the only option as he would have struggled to get to Glasgow on Sunday in time hence his interview in the speedway star.
