RobMcCaffery Posted March 21, 2018 Report Share Posted March 21, 2018 (edited) Sadly Sportowe Fakty are casting doubt over Saturday's event. https://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/744481/get-well-przeklada-sparingi-i-odwoluje-treningi-co-ze-speedway-best-pairs For those unable to follow the link or translate it appears that this week's training match at Torun against Unia Leszno, having already been switched from Wednesday to Thursday is off again due to frost in the track, rescheduled for next Wednesday, and unless temperatures rise there is a risk that the pairs may have to also be rescheduled. They're hoping the track ca be readied for practice on Friday. Edited March 21, 2018 by RobMcCaffery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchGrasstrack Posted March 22, 2018 Report Share Posted March 22, 2018 It's moved to sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobMcCaffery Posted March 22, 2018 Report Share Posted March 22, 2018 (edited) It appears that Torun have relaid the first bend. Sunday's timings are 1.30 pm parade, 2.05 pm first race, UK time. Bear in mind we switch to BST overnight so the clocks here go forward an hour. I presume CET is also switching the same night. There could be problems with Eurosport who have live cycling scheduled on E1. E2 has recorded motorcycling from Bangkok which could be shifted but are due to show live Motocross at 4 pm. We'll have to wait and see. I'm sure David Rowe can confirm. Edited March 22, 2018 by RobMcCaffery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racers and royals Posted March 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2018 Looks as if the best we will have is "delayed live" as even Eurosport.pl have live action on both their channels already on Sunday afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why they are not 13-18 I don`t quite know(6 pairs only) Edit looking at the draw I posted earlier I think he is 15 not 17 and the reserves are in fact numbered 13-18 Edited March 23, 2018 by racers and royals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do know that the 1st race goes off (scheduled)at 2.05pm UK time. Edited March 24, 2018 by racers and royals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobMcCaffery Posted March 24, 2018 Report Share Posted March 24, 2018 Virgin Media have updated their epg and show it running from 2-4. Let's hope that there are no delays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
