Wildcards 2017.....


Recommended Posts

On form this year Laguta is probably the only other outsider that might have a genuine claim that I can think of.

Assuming you mean Grigorij, he's the one addition I think would make the series more exciting and would welcome with open arms. Emil would be an added attraction ( I never said that in public :P ) , as would, obviously, Nicki P.

I never think the selectors pick the best four until last year which I just about agreed on.

 

This next year is a tricky one also because I would think you have to pick Zagar and Janowski as they both missed out by one point, but you have Sayfutdinov who now wants a place along with Nicki Pedersen who was out injured for a few meetings and only one Dane plus Jarek Hampel who in my opinion like Sayfutdinov should really go for through the qualifying system.

 

I cannot see anyone else unless Pedersen doesn't get the pick and someone younger like Kildemand or Jespen Jensen is picked but I think its finally goodbye to AJ and Harris.

You would have to feel sorry for Janowski if he is over looked for a wild card in favour of Hampel, true it was injury that took Hampels GP spot away from him but I haven't seen anything in his comeback meetings that would suggest he would be competitive at SGP level, if there is to be another Pole in the GP`s then surely Janowski has a better shout than Hampel.

That was a very enjoyable meeting again. The racing on temporary tracks this season has been excellent - the best I can recall. Have they nailed the track prep, is it because the line up was strong and evenly matched, or other factors?

Is that in some way connected to 'Wildcards'?

Speedway fans here in Germany are pretty sure that our number one Martin Smolinski has a very good chance to receive a permanet wild card for the 2017 SGP series

I'd like to say that i am one fan in Germany who doesn't share that opinion :rofl::P

Are bsi thinking the future ,vaclav milik, Robert lambert or a young pole , excitement Nicki pedersen greg Laguta or commercial any pole and a Brit , lots of brits go to Torun , would that take a hit if there was no other Brit apart from woofy and he isn't the most popular Brit ever

I think we're all agreed that Nicki and Emil are the two obvious. 9th has I believe always been given a wildcard so Matej and Magic could feel hard done by if they don't get a wildcard. But, IMO, if we're going to have a 4th Pole then KK is ahead of Magic.

 

I like Magic but he's a bit meh at times.
