I see Warsaw being cancelled again, and the end of season double headers in Poland as an almost certainty. Wroclaw, Gorzow and Torun again I expect, although a double header at Bydgoszcz would be a awesome addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do in the city. Belle Vue can showcase speedway in a way Cardiff can only dream of. Belle Vue is in a dump of an area, nowhere to walk to and stadium facilities are awful. I assume you were joking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume you were joking. Perhaps Rocket87 should have said “Belle Vue can showcase speedway racing in a way Cardiff can only dream of”. That would be true. To say Belle Vue is in a dump area, I reckon more then a few local residents would have a lot to say about that. A lot of new housing development in the immediate area, with schools etc very close by to them (and the stadium). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPEEDY69 Posted May 1, 2021 Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) No-one wants to walk around houses though. Cardiff has such a great feel on GP day, the city is easy to walk around, easy to get food and drink plus its easy to get to/from. Belle Vue can't come anywhere near that experience. This is where promoters go wrong, people want atmosphere and an experience. Plenty of great racing tracks have struggled to get fans in.

I was making reference to your derogatory comment when you said Belle Vue is in a dump area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OveFundinFan Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 I was simply defending the area around Belle Vue, that it is not a dump. My views on Cardiff as home for the British Gran Prix I have made known numerous occasions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My views on Cardiff as home for the British Gran Prix I have made known numerous occasions. Don't be so sensitive, perhaps I should have said not an attractive area for walking around but the comparison was with a beautiful city centre all within an easy walk. Most fans want the experience, diehard fans want the best racing. For example F1 is awful racing but we'll supported.

Neila Posted May 10, 2021 Report Share Posted May 10, 2021 Well the stadium is now free, one of the reasons bsi gave for cancelling the gp was transport needed to be booked for shale etc without knowing what rules the Welsh government would have, so disappointed no gp but understand reasons, where the Welsh rugby only need the go ahead for a crowd then the game can go ahead as pitch will already be in place 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
