That’s a shame as would have liked to see how the GB boys rode and interested in having a look at Klima and Chulpac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt it will be the SF winners plus highest scoring 2nd to join the seeded Poles in the final.

racers and royals Posted June 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 (edited) So if Denmark or Latvia win on the 18th they will both get to the final or if Sweden or Norway do then Denmark only will- which seems ridiculous as Denmark are in the final even if they finish last.( for finishing 2nd to Poland last year).

Particularly in Junior meetings etc with an age limit. Quite possible that a team finished well because of one or two riders who are no longer available . And they then get intothe final over a team that beat them in the qualis... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehone Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 i find it strange that Germany are in neither semi final having made the final last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bavarian Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 I read somewhere that Germany will be in the semi-final in Norway, replacing Denmark, who are already qualified for the final. It would make sense if it is Norway v Sweden v Latvia v Germany in the second semi-final at Elgane, and only the winning team qualifies for the final. Poland and Denmark are seeded, and Great Britian qualified as the winners of SF1. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we just need confirmation, although with the meeting next Saturday sooner rather than later would be nice !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iris123 Posted June 13, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 Is Espen related to Rune at all ? Looking at the ages he could well be his son. But then again it might just be a coincidence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
