OveFundinFan Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 I think a GP at BV would show amazing racing, overtaking galore. Depends whether the low crowd capacity would be a stumbler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think that the PZM would be willing to give them Polish licences. I imagine that Russia will be banned from SoN and other FIM team competitions though.

I will be at Cardiff and would like to watch Sayfutinov and Laguta but in the circumstances if the war is still ongoing I don't think they should ride, if they do and should one of them win the GP I will not be cheering or staying for the presentations. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The White Knight Posted February 27, 2022 Report Share Posted February 27, 2022 Apparently the F.A. have stated that they will not play against Russia in any competition for the foreseeable future. Good for them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope your right but Zmarzlik finished 60points in front of his next rival and his beloved Gorzow is back on the calendar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OveFundinFan Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 I think Jack Holder and Dan Bewley will be steady in the GPs, maybe upset someone’s Apple cart on occasion, but for sure they not going to set the world on fire in their first year. It took Anderson Thomson until the last few rounds to get some consistency, and Robert Lambert too… and he has had some experience before last year. The cries go out “we want new riders in the series”, well you got them, two youngsters who are the future, albeit the future come a bit sooner due to some mad person on Moscow.

customhouseregular Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 At least Dan and Jack won’t have to face the World number 1 and 3. That’s a couple of extra points maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is that if you subscribe to Sky Q then Discovery+ is included for the first 12 months. Don't know after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
