Noelinho Posted August 20, 2022 Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 Kids' race after heat 12 is cancelled. Looks like they're moving Holder into a different ambulance so I guess it'll be a short delay yet whilst they do that, before we get going again. Should I check the gantry to make sure Dave Rowe is still awake? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the rider who gets to turn one first. Not a term I'd ever seen used in speedway before Discovery used it this year, but it's common in motorbike racing on tracks.

Either that, or I've gone totally deaf! Not impressed with that, surely they could chat about something? The weather, politics, what colour wallpaper the new Prime Minister will put up in number 10? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noelinho Posted August 20, 2022 Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 Nilsson's last two rides are off 1 and 4. Heat 15 is tough, but heat 18 could be a good one for him based on what we've seen so far. Gate 4, no big guns (two riders with one point combined, and Drew Kemp).
