OveFundinFan Posted September 17, 2021 Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 The prime object of SON is not can fans predict the top three correctly, is to give smaller speedway nations a chance to join a competition. Like it or lump it, that’s what it is about. Someone, or some committee at FIM need sacking. The track was not fit for a world championship event. It was dangerous, riders could have got seriously injured, even contenders in the individual world championship could have got seriously injured meaning they could have missed the last two rounds. Heads should role. It’s no excuse saying they want smaller countries to hold world championship finals, it was dangerous. The track the GPChallenge was held this year was not dangerous but it was a useless racing track not fit for such an important meeting. Very possibly the same person or committee making the decisions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IainB Posted September 17, 2021 Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 Are they putting temporary stands in at Belle Vue, because if 700 people are standing on that flat ground they ain't going to be able to see a thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Michelsen he seems to attack the track and not let it beat him remember years ago Shawn Moran at Sheffield the track was like a ploughed field some riders could nt ride it he came out wound it on and attacked it just a little question why do riders lift their leg off the peg coming out of the bend s tonight it seemed to be causing them problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lbw Posted September 17, 2021 Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) Track reminded me of a GP at Gothenburg when the track was so badly rutted after only a few heats. They postponed and ran the next day but it was still far from ideal. Edited September 17, 2021 by PirateShip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OveFundinFan Posted September 17, 2021 Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 We got another evening of rubbish tomorrow, only one super strong team tomorrow so racing between the others might be interesting. Tonight, Czechia came equal last. They used to be better then that, but even Malik is a shadow of where he was 3 years ago, just when the shout was put him in the GP’s. Someone on here the other day was suggesting newcomers to the GP’s should be given 3 years to prove themselves. Yes, Milik would have added something to the GP’s - boredom. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czechs didn`t come equal last- BSI on the caption said they beat Slovenia, which of course they didn`t and they finished 7th and last !!!

Col Posted September 17, 2021 Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 Dunno what has happened to Daugavpils track since I visited 3 years ago, was decent then and have usually enjoyed the racing from there when watching it on TV but that was awful. Gonna be even worse tomorrow, they can't rectify that mess in 20 hours. Believe track was reasonable until 17:30 local when practice took place, which damaged it, no time to fix it. Let's hope they can get it in a state to practice on over night & practice is early. Aussie's will win by a country mile, Latvia should get second spot. God knows on the others, Grobauer will barely rev his engine faced with that, Castagna might enjoy it, Perry Barr wasn't quite that bad when Kent/Leicester visited but it wasn't far off.
