Col Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 (edited) Planning to do GP's in Warsaw (hotel booked already) & Torun next season assuming the calendar is similar. Been to Krsko, its not a great location, track or stadium IMO. Except for the Speedway there isn't much to Daugavpils, but the racing is usually good there, stadium has better facilities than the older Polish stadiums (Bydgoszcz & Leszno at least). Riga is a cracking city, the GP they booked there never happened so I'd like to see them get another chance. The good thing about Poland & the Baltic is that they're really affordable. Haven't been to Marketa but have been to Prague, another fabulous city, I went in 2003 it wasn't expensive then, I can't imagine it is as cheap now. Would rather see Pardubice get the GP for racing. Went to Gothenburg for the 1991 World final, but I don't think Ullevi stadium is setup for speedway any more. Scandinavia certainly deserve a stadium GP. Also been to Parken to see a FC Copenhagen game a long time ago, 2001 I think. But Scandinavia is super expensive. Never thought the racing at GP's held in Italy were good racing wise. They are also a fair distance from anything - like the German stadiums. Surely Russia deserves a GP with two GP riders. But I haven't investigated where their speedway stadiums are located or ever watched a meeting from Russia. Have been to a meeting in Los Angeles also, I don't know what kind of crowd they would get a big event, but the one I went to wasn't well attended. Would be fun seeing some of the GP riders on such a tight track. The track I went to looked like it could fit inside the Monmore Green track. Warsaw. Manchester. Copenhagen. Pardubice. Gothenburg. Somewhere in Russia. Cardiff. Sweden - Kumla or Malila being the best racing from what I have seen on the TV. Or wherever semi of the SWC (2017?) was when Latvia knocked out Denmark, that was great stuff. Riga. Torun.

So realistically you would need to start with the 2 nz gps. For cost, logistics and weather regions. The point is, while i would love GPs back in nz, how can anyone justify a world championship event at a venue like Oreti park? And how on earth would it be financially viable?
