SteveLyric2 Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 I thought FIM had confirmed SoN at BV on 24/25 October!!!? They could of course move it to somewhere like Rybnik where there has been no Covid-19 flare-ups!!? Oh but hang on.........................!!!

SoN at BV October 24/25 as previously announced. SGP series in Poland and Czecho late Aug/Sept/early Oct. Eight rounds across 4 Fri/Sat weekends.

Gunner85 Posted July 29, 2020 Report Share Posted July 29, 2020 Good to see 8 rounds over 4 tracks which makes it more realistic as a Championship. They have made the best of a a difficult situation. Son final with no qualifier makes sense under the circumstances. Hope everything works out for the NSS In October Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with two of the best riders in the world hopefully fit and well to ride... Bewley as U21 rider as a track specialist, and track record holder, isn't a bad third rider to have too.. (If they are stil doing the compulsory U21 rider?).. If not then Craig Cook is another who is excellent around the NSS.. Could be a very good couple of days..

Fromafar Posted July 29, 2020 Report Share Posted July 29, 2020 If it goes ahead I wonder if it will be with capacity crowd( might be a stumbling block),as the Grandstand was virtually sold out long before Covid 19 became a problem.Interesting!!!

Neila Posted July 29, 2020 Report Share Posted July 29, 2020 Think they may put in a temporary stand around turns 3+4 to spread the crowd out !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The probable cost of erecting temporary stands could outweigh the income. There has just been 2 Moto GP races from Jerez in Spain over two weekends. Big open spaces but NO spectators. F1 this weekend (and week after) from Silverstone, masses of terracing - NO spectators. Did you notice the spectators in Poland last night in Torun. No social distancing no mask wearing from the vast proportion of crowd despite lots of empty terracing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need more fans to make it viable I would think... Grandstand alone is circa 1800 and the whole crowd seldom gets too close to that.. They reduced the back straight stand due to not needing the size it was too.. Would certainly 'complete' the stadium though.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original plans were for a capacity of 6000. That never materialised and in the first year the capacity of the South stand was greatly reduced as it contained temporary stands. The stands on the 3rd and 4th bend were meant to boost capacity to 10000 for the first World Cup.... again this did not happen as the capacity of the South stand had been reduced due to the temporary stands. we will have to wait and see what happens in October Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
