Can anybody explain what happens on day 2 are the scores carried forward and do all the teams qualify for tomorrow then what does the winning team have to do to win outright 

thanks

It's total points from two days. The top scoring team is in the final, and the 2nd and 3rd race off to join them. The winners of the final win the championship.

Some quite enjoyable racing despite the track, though the crashes was horrible.  Lambert justified his selection, they should give him a new watch as a reward.  Top three as expected, but with the Lambert and Woffinden exclusions Poland are already in the final so long as they do not mess up.  Lebedevs performing was expected, but France and Hellstöm Bängs stand out for the effort they put in.  Hopefully a better track tomorrow.

Bit of a farce the scoring system,any thing to try and stop the Poles winning.While thr track should have been better ,I enjoyed the racing, it certainly wasn’t dangerous,unlike the semi -finals.

I think that this would have been a good opportunity to try Bewley which at least meant that you had one home grown rider who plied his tried in British speedway this year.

No. If you think he was a better choice than either Lambert or Woffinden then fair enough.  But it is a championship final, you do not try someone out or reward league choices, you pick the best two riders so you have the best chance of winning it.

I think he is better than Lambert.

Again, from what I saw - and apparently most others saw - he was first to the tapes, and even if he wasn't "ready" to race, neither was Woffinden.

Hellstom Bangs was impressive, no lack of effort  forvery little reward.Good expieriance for him though.

He just wasn't getting out of the gate. Had he done that, he would have been a real threat.

Can't agree with you on that, it's poorly prepared and not a patch on how it was on Monday, that was a proper racers track, this is dangerous.

The crashes to the Swdes and Woffinden were caused by the riders hitting the rider (Doyle) in front at high speed. Not caused by the track.

Yes but that was due to everyone getting out wide because that was the only place to generate speed.  Anyway, glad you enjoyed it, I did too but expected a better racetrack, so inferior to Monday night.

Interesting how it’s never mentioned how many ‘accidents’ he’s caused over the last few years! He’s worse than Freddie and not far behind Pedersen for me but because he’s a nice guy he gets away with it!
