That seems pure cloud cuckoo stuff given there's not even a stadium suitable for speedway there now. I've been there. I was gobsmacked when I saw it suggested as a GP venue. It offers great opportunities for young riders that want to get track time, but it would be like proposing a GP at Carmarthen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the other semi will surely be in Poland. So, economically it would make sense for the other continental teams to contest that - Poland, Germany, Denmark, Latvia, Czech certainly. Australia, Sweden, USA, France & Finland likely to be at NSS. Unless they really mix it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col Posted November 2, 2018 Report Share Posted November 2, 2018 Finns & Swedes would probably have to fly to either UK or Poland, by contrast Latvians, Germans, Czechs, Slovaks, Ukrainians can drive to Poland relatively quickly. Driving to Poland from Italy, Slovenia & France would be more of a journey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f-s-p Posted November 2, 2018 Report Share Posted November 2, 2018 When the lottery takes place, we’ll be in the basket called ”teams most likely to not win team gb 5-1 and nobody cares if they in or not” and thats why we’ll be riding in the manchester quali. has bugger all to do with finances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col Posted November 2, 2018 Report Share Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) Furthermore, I assume the organisers actually hope visiting fans will attend these events. More likely to get a German or Latvian spectator at an event in Poland than an event Manchester. Edited November 2, 2018 by Col Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racers and royals Posted November 2, 2018 Report Share Posted November 2, 2018 It would be awesome if the 2 qualifiers were at Belle Vue and Czestochowa- the 2 best race tracks in the world. Wherever they are, every competing nation must have a U21 reserve rider in 2019 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the 2018 rulebook and i can`t see the FIM changing to 3 man senior rider teams nor can i see them allowing again 2 man teams. "FMN’s may nominate a U21 Rider who is the same nationality as FMN. This rider will be allocated starting number 3, allowed to practice and will be a Reserve, permitted to take the place of any rider at any time during the meeting. The nomination and use of an U21 Rider is not compulsory for 2018 but will be compulsory for 2019." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f-s-p Posted November 2, 2018 Report Share Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) 2019 book not published yet. I had read that text also from LAST years book. EDIT: last or this, you get what I mean Edited November 2, 2018 by f-s-p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
