allthegearbutnaeidea Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Latvia and russia had Sweden and Denmark in their event and then Australia and USA in their race off, the event is harder than the race off hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Think those ratings are obviously skewed as the US riders scores are mostly from US tracks.Poland is totally different.Think they will be lucky to reach 10,so it is a question of who picks up those points.The other teams will have few last places apart from ef's etc.What is amazing really is Latvia with just the one proper track and very few riders,probably a lot less than the US and most other countries have quality over quantity.Impressive Will be surprised for instance if 4 US riders are really better than Kostigovs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if tonights race off is cancelled, and then the race off tomorrow has to be cancelled as well. What happens then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A ORLOV Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Not sure but he is in the line up, no doubt confirmation might come after practice. Tweet just through, but not official, stated that Jason is riding tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racers and royals Posted July 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 What if tonights race off is cancelled, and then the race off tomorrow has to be cancelled as well. What happens then?Then I`m sure the FIM would have a double header on Sunday- probably noon local for the race-off and 7pm local for the final The stadium would have to be cleared after the 1st match, so that Ticket holders for race-off and final could be differentiated.

uk_martin Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 I see that Greg Laguta has been suspended after being caught out in a drugs test. Same drug as Maria Sharapova from what was said. That alters the balance of things now. https://m.sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/697720/grigorij-laguta-zlapany-na-dopingu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawkins20 Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 (edited) Russia without Laguta and its on today. No Denmark unfortunately. Edited July 7, 2017 by Dawkins20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Danish riders complaining that tonight's meeting shouldn't go ahead. I understand their frustration but Laguta is suspended not banned and he hasn't been found guilty yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytsejam Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Russia without Laguta and its on today. No Denmark unfortunately. Gonna be really exciting tonight now then!!!....uhmm, I wonder if Australia are going to win?!!!!....Track will be much better but the meeting could still rival Lynn's for monotany!! and USA could actually score double figure points now too!! As I said the other day, this years World Cup excitement came and went on Tuesday, the other 3 meetings were/are going to be non events.

Bavarian Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 The Polish PZM has reported Laguta for having failed a drugs test at a Polish league meeting. Great ! The timing to have him suspended just hours before todays' SWC race-off is perfect. The Russians have no time to react, can't call-up one of their other riders, and have to use Gleb Chugunov. Congratulations to the PZM, for eliminating one of the Polish team's biggest rivals for Gold, and spoiling the excitment of the SWC race-off and final. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
