ch958 Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 need to insist on decent racetracks when thousands of TV viewers are seeing it ok BV might not hold 40000 but at least you'd advertise the sport well on TV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 Thank god that tripe is over. A complete bore fest from heat one through to the final. Zmarzliks now to lose.

You think he could miss out on a medal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the one GP where practise would have been important to avoid those gates in the pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norbold Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 So Zagar is now in the top 8. So is that good news for Thomsen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonight is one of them times. I recording it, but it will be wiped out pretty soon. Done it, I deleted the recording. Usually I record the full meeting, then record the shorter highlighted meeting (usually 2 hours) and save for the winter months. Not this one, apart from the first lap passing just wasn’t going to happen. Give the riders a race track. seeing how successful Ole Olsen was as a rider, I cannot see how he come up with a track like this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will admit, I've never been a huge fan of Vojens, but the fact that it is a truly purpose-built track doesn't make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatAndy Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 I know this was a dire GP but I'm so pleased to have been able to see it through the kindness of members who sent me a link. I am on a very low wage and cannot afford a BT Sport subscription but I'm dedicated to speedway and am very grateful to have been sent a link so I could see Zmarzlik move into... ahem... pole position tonight. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) A Facebook contributor advised me as follows in regard to the Vojens GP. It tends to support my thoughts: "...watch the racing highlights that should take all of 3 minutes..."

If any two of Matej Zagar, NKI or Martin Vaculik finish in the top 8, then Anders Thomsen qualifies from the Challenge. If all three get into the top 8, then Pontus Aspgren also gets in.

ytsejam Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 Well, what a complete utter load of tripe that was!!.......probably the worst GP of the season (and there were a few completely rubbish ones at the start too!). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted September 7, 2019 Report Share Posted September 7, 2019 Another crap GP. If only they could select the ten best race tracks in the world and use those. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
