DutchGrasstrack Posted February 22, 2020 Report Share Posted February 22, 2020 Dutch riders would love to race but the federation does not allow it. Might change next year when we probably see the teams in Heerenveen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Federations world wide are full of d1kkheads but denying entry when there is no cost is stupid. But naturally not unheard of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchGrasstrack Posted February 22, 2020 Report Share Posted February 22, 2020 No, the KNMV has motorsport-wide goals for their national teams. The ice guys cannot reach this goal. Think it has something to do that the team has to be able to get a medal or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve69 Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 The actual pts would give Dmitry Khomitsevich 106 pts with Danil Ivanov back on 103. (yet the FIM System gives Ivanov a 4 pts lead). 3rd would be a tie with Dinar Valeev & Igor Kononov on 89 pts. But FIM system has Valeev with a 9 pts cushion. How can that be better? Harald Simon has 11 more pts than he has scored. Franz Zorn 7 more pts. Biggest loser Khomitsevich minus 6 pts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f-s-p Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 I’ve been frequently debating this new scoring system with some friends and collegues, and just fail miserably time after time to see how they think the new system is better just because it’s now more important to win meetings. In ice racing for example its now and more important to win 10 heats a season than the 70 heats last year. And this change is for the better...

Does the new system not make it easier for 3rd and 4th to catch up with the top two, technically making it a more open title race? Not saying I agree with it but seeing as I'm going to Heerenveen, the more riders with a shot at the title the better Edited February 25, 2020 by Schwantz34 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve69 Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 Hi Schwartz34, I will be in Inzell & Heerenveen - look out for the Union Jack flag at start-line!!! My concern is that at present the rider scoring the most actual race points is trailing in second. Yes, i agree that the system is trying to keep the riders bunched together but in reality I feel that the racing in the heats does not mean as much & hence the racing suffers where as the semi-finals plus Final maybe too competitive causing accidents & injuries. Which is why I believe the FIM changed it before. But hey-ho let`s see what the outcome is at the end of the SGP season in October. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Steve I'll keep my eyes peeled for the union jack, standing at the first corner on Saturday and sitting somewhere on the start/ finish on Sunday. Went to Heerenveen in 2017 for my first meeting and really enjoyed it although I felt the Herris fencing round the side spoils the view a bit ( for some reason they don't have it in Inzell). Can't come soon enough and although I probably preferred the last 2 years at Inzell, Amsterdam is easier to do in a weekend from Glasgow than Munich or Salzburg. I hear what you're saying about the rider in second potentially having more points with the old scoring system. But, like my British Superbike analogy I feel the champion at the end of the year will be a deserving champion whether or not they would have been should the scoring be as per last year. Enjoy Inzell and if I get a chance I'll say hi at Thialf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conkers Posted February 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2020 ICE SPEEDWAY OF NATION, BERLIN 29.02.2020/01.03.2020 DAY 1 RESULT: RUSSIA 28 Daniil Ivanov 12, Dmitri Khomitsevich 8, Igor Kononov 8 SWEDEN 25 Martin Haarahiltunen 12, Niclas Svensson 9, Stefen Svenson 4 GERMANY 22 Johann Weber 14, Max Niedermaier 8, Marcus Jell 0 AUSTRIA 19 Harald Simon 14, Charly Ebner 5, Franky Zorn 0 CZECH REP. 12 Jan Klatovsky 6, Lukas Hutla 6, Andrey Divis 0 KAZAKHSTAN 12 Vladimir Cheblakov 6, Pawel Nekrasov 4, Denis Slepuchin 2 FINLAND 8 Matti Isoaho 4, Mikko Jetsonen 3, Christer Biskop 1 Some good racing tonight, with a particular hard fought battle between Weber and Khommitsevich for second, which Weber won to split the Russians. Then Martin H beat Igor Kononov to give the Swedes a second and split the Russians again. Its the first time for a few years that the Russians have dropped points but I suspect they won't be dropping many more tomorrow. Germany determined to get on the Rostrum. Dissapointing meeting for Franky Zorn, just not up there this season. Apologies for the late update but I've had my pics to sort out first.

Bavarian Posted March 1, 2020 Report Share Posted March 1, 2020 It would not matter if the Russians drop a few more points in the heats. Points scored in the heats don't Count in the A and B finals, and as long as the Russians finish in the top two after 42 heats and two days of racing, they go into the A-final, where the gold medals are decided in that single race to be won by the individual rider who crosses the finishing line in first place, thanks to F.I.M.'s new 8-5-2-0 point scoring.
