i am sure they will we have only missed races when we have joined after the meeting has started 

But some points on that issue. Why can they not start to show the races we have missed, miss out the gaps in between races, and gradually catch up until live.

If a sport, such as tennis or snooker (obviously difficult to predict and end time), does over run, why do they have to show some presentation, and or interview, after the game., and why do they have to promote some future event, before switching to the scheduled event?

Seem to be lots of postponed matches  in the Polish leagues this year so far...

(Nothing to do with no/reduced crowds and the hope that full crowds can enter later in the season I am sure)..;)

In the SS, Oliver Berntzon mentions that this 'slow start' to the season means he has a good many meetings condensed into a relatively short period of time, meaning he is having to stay in Poland to ensure he will be available for them all..

He also said that they were racing three meetings in five days in the coming weeks to catch up...

I think the BSPL might need to keep Monday's Eurosport fixture the only meeting to be ran that day if the same thing will apply to the rest of the riders...

Any announcement yet about the fixtures they will cover? Saw Belle Vue Sheffield promoted between snooker frames recently, but nothing else. I suspect some fixture changes were due to Eurosport rather than just rearranging matches prior to May 17th.

So who is Abi Stephens? Does she have a Speedway background? Her face seems familiar

She has done speedway before, can't remember if she stood in for Natalie once or maybe did some interviews in pits, definitely been involved in speedway before.

She did some pits work when Sky were broadcasting. Since then she has covered various other motorsports for BT and others, as well as Boxing,

She should be good.

 

ALSO very good to see a one hour highlights programme on Quest on Tuesday at 11pm. Quest is available on Freeview as well as Sky, Virgin and Freesat.

Abi last appeared on Speedway coverage for BT sports during the play off between Ipswich & Poole but has done lots of other Speedway meetings as well as regular Moto GP and World Rally car series 

It could be interesting to see who fans rate better at Speedway presentation Abi on Eurosport or Charlie on BT sport for the GPs
