Happy with the 4 Qualifiers, You normally get one surprise that ends up having a shocking GP series after qualifying but not this year.

Hopefully the Wildcards go to the correct riders and then we'll have the best GP field in years.

Fricke has an easy last race.

Looks like it is Thomsen, Kurtz, Kubera and Fricke.

Doyle will struggle to get a wild card now.

Laguta and Emil are nailed on as there are only 2 Polish riders in the GPs.

Why, because that will mean three Aussies? More likely that’s Tai’s chances gone.

Four: Jack Holder, Kurtz, Fricke and Doyle.

- so yes it may be a consideration.

That would be rather perverse to have three Aussies but leave out the best Aussie of them all.

Certainly agree. And for me the wildcards would be Doyle and Michelsen and then Emil and Artem - if not Madsen and either Magic/Dudek.

Comments here suggest Artem and Emil as WC considerations, has the FIM opted to stop interfering in Politics and lifted the ban that should never have been placed?

If that is not the case, and common sense and fair play otherwise gets a shot, Michelsen, Doyle and Madsen should get WC's.  Who gets the 4th, Thorsell?

Emil and Artem are both Polish citizens.

They pay their taxes in Poland and are allowed to vote in the Polish Presidential Election.

What's the point in the podium race tonight?

After 20 Hts.

Kurtz 13 Pts

Thomsen 12 Pts

Kubera 11 Pts (3 Heat Wins)

Fricke 11 Pts (2 Heat Wins)

There's no point in having an extra heat for the top 4. 20 heat format is fine as it is without any extras.

Especially pointless here, as the guy in 4th won't care that he didn't win - he's now a GP rider!
