It was just a statement of fact but sure I deffo would like to see Greg out of the series.

So, even though he is still proving himself to be one of the better riders, you DO want them to pick who you want?   Oh well...

As dull as Hancock is I can understand his inclusion, however there are at least two Danes who could/should have been picked ahead of Pedersen.

The same reason as Nicki. Ex-world champion that is well known by the general public.
IMO neither should have been given wild cards but money talks.

..and the fact that Hancock is STILL one of the best 8 riders...

Well done Zmarzlik.   He was nearly robbed of his place in the final then.

Zmarzlik and Janowski were well clear in the original race when the two Russians managed to crash into each other and get one of them a re-run.   There's a clear case when a race should be awarded.

Thought Sayfutdinov was going to steal a place in the final by default, but well done Zmarzlik getting past him.

Decent GP, some good races. But for the final lap of semi final 2 I had the 4 finalists in the GP predictor. That said Zmarzlik certainly deserved to be in the final.

Traffic cost Woffinden in thr final, but I still think he'll have the World title sewn up with a round or two to spare if he avoids injury.

Just two? I'd rather see Madsen, Iversen & Jepson Jensen rather than Pedersen. Maybe even Kildemamd. But only Iversen's inclusion is mildly meritted this season.

Madesen is usually good in the leagues but very weak in SGP/SEC. MJJ was awful last year and wasn't worthy a pick then but he has been really good this season.
One could have picked Lebedevs as a wc for this season judging by his form last season but he has been very mediocre this season.
NKI/Kildemand maybe but I don't think they add anything more then Nicki. Unfortunately, Denmark (like Sweden) doesn't really have any good
up-and-coming rider.
