racers and royals Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 (edited) Lebdevs you're right, I was being a bit flippant but Zagar won't be in the qualifiers, so in reality I could name about 20 Brits ahead of anything Slovenia could send.I would think its a certaintity that Zagar WILL be in the qualifiers- he did this year and im sure will do the same next.

f-s-p Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 And do you know why they were knocked back to three, when weaker nations were given more? This was discussed earlier and moominman also pointed to that direction. I think I was one of the first to say on here, that FMN's reputation of hosting meetings was taken in to consideration. Which in fact I thought would work in favour of ACU. But honestly, I have know idea why you not get 4 or 5 slots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don`t yet know how they are going to work out the qualifiers for the final- let alone the reserves Presumably Germany must have a wildcard for the Landshut final- so it can`t be 4 from each qualifier. So is it 3 from each and 3 picks from the FIM + the wildcard ? I will have to ask Armando Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To my defense I'll just state that sportowefakty probably had them public before Lydia had them published. So in reality I'm not to blame... They ditched the "reserve qualifying" system last year or year before. So that no one had to travel accross Europe to start with #18 on his chest. Instead they went with FMNR riders. Cant see any reason why change back, but also cant see the text in the book stating what the system is. And... I know the Finnish riders for the qualis too... But I'll sit on the press release until next tuesday just to humour you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'll sit on the press release until next tuesday just to humour you As it`s the last step before the GP`s I would think it`s important that there are 2 reserves present in Landshut. I`m really missing using Speedway.org for info- do you or Doug know of an alternative ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f-s-p Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 (edited) I kind of miss it too, but never used it for news. Hope she keeps it up for the archives sake, would be really sad if it disappeared. Once amonth atleast I'd like to find something from world.speedway.org... Now I just check sportowefakty for dates and such. Wouldnt bet any money based on most of the news though. And of course they'll have reserves and a reserve riders list to call up from. But is it FMNR track reserves or not? EDIT: Well maybe there is a system for the track reserves... ??? Riders qualifying for the FIM Speedway Grand Prix Qualification Meetings Challenge: • The top 3 from each of the four FIM Speedway Grand Prix World Championship Qualification Meetings, will qualify for the FIM Speedway Grand Prix World Championship Challenge. • Any additional Riders that might be required for the FIM Speedway WC Grand Prix Challenge will be elevated from the FIM Speedway WC Grand Qualifying Rounds.

In addition • 3 Wild Card Riders will be nominated by the CCP Bureau. • 1 Wild Card Rider will be nominated by the FMNR subject to acceptance by the CCP Bureau Nominations must be made in writing to the FIM not later than 1 month prior to the meeting. Time Limit – Replacement Riders In circumstances where a qualified Rider cannot take part in any meeting as specified above, for a reason accepted by the CCP Bureau they will be replaced in accordance with the above subject to official communication being communicated to the replacement Rider up to 48 hours prior to the start time of the first heat as per the supplementary regulations. Thereafter any vacant position at the discretion of the CCP Bureau may be taken by a track reserve in accordance with the order of their nomination (ie 17, then 18 etc).

iris123 Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 Bit lost myself without speedway.org.She has kept the last 5 years,but all the old stats going way back for both speedway and ice speedway seem to have gone And it was always handy to look at her fixture list to quickly see what was coming up in the next week or two I don't know of an equivalent site,sadly.At least the DMU have a decent fixture list for Denmark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f-s-p Posted March 29, 2018 Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 For SGP Finland goes with Timo Lahti, Tero Aarnio and Jesse Mustonen. For SEC we'll go with Timo Lahti in Pardubice and Mustonen+Aarnio in Balakovo. SoN will be announced closer to the date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
