Rob B Posted July 17, 2021 Report Share Posted July 17, 2021 “All fans will need to wear an FFP2, KN95 or certified nano face mask for the duration of the event, and prove their Covid-19 status to gain entry to Marketa Stadium using one of the following methods:” noticed this special mask requirement wasn’t enforced, nobody was wearing masks.

Something to do with the Russian Fereration refusing to co-operate with WADA. So I think Russian competitors have to compete as athletes without representation or some such description, hence no flag. I then think it's up to the sports governing body to decide if any Russia nationals are allowed to compete. Presumably on the basis that they believe them to be free of doping and/or that the individuals have co-operated in testing. I think the same will apply at the Olympics. Although in the Euro's the team was definitely referred to as Russia. Interesting to see what happens at the SON. Are Sayfutidinov and Laguta still the defending champs? Noticed on the official FIM results that "Russia" was omitted alongside Sayfutdinov and Lagutas names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any stato to verify?? It would be nice to see which tyre each rider is using & engine manufacturer / tuner To verify what exactly or just to knock Speedway which is a sport you now have no interest in.

Russians in the SEC we're allowed to have their National identity as FIME events are not covered by the ban. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
