What is wrong with this track? 

Lots of rave reviews but top class riders struggling on it?

And the racing is really poor...

Lambert a straight in front...

Glasgow promoter is doing the co-commentary on the stream and he stated more crashes in this meeting than they have had all season. Stakes are higher. 

Not sure why riders struggling. Interesting to see on twitter Darcy Ward tweeted that a lot of riders won't like the Glasgow track .

There have been several riders losing it in pretty much the same spot...

Turn 3 isn't easy to get into, a lot of riders straightening up. I think it's a knowledge thing rather than track. You have to make a very deliberate entry

Why do they have these meetings at Glasgow, always full of crashes and injuries

Nothing wrong with this track.

Milik & Thomsen made individual mistakes and have taken themselves out of the meeting.

Why all the silences? 

Even Sunday League football coverage have people commentating all the way through it...

Is it completely quiet in the stadium too? 

No meeting presenter? No music?

It does seem strange, as they seem to be straightening up. You're probably right about knowledge...

I think they are muting the stadium for some reason, mind you those Scots do swear a lot.

My son works for the ambulance service and immediately spotted the seriousness of the injury. Not good.

If that is a broken ankle that that fence is too hard, it wasn’t a high speed crash and an air fence should easily absorb that impact

That was mentioned earlier on here. No excuse for no commentary on the stream, though.

But do you usually end up in an ambulance, though?
