He probably cut across an Edinburgh rider once about a hundred years ago, that's where the hate is coming from 🤷‍♂️

Imminent

I am told Emil and Artem received a phone call today.

Really? I'd have thought they'd tell you in person. You must be slipping down their pecking order 😗

Why is it a weird take? He’s dangerous on the track, doesn’t have a chance to win the world champs realistically so don’t understand the clamour. 

Viewing figures! Like Nicki Pedersen until he got too slow.

He’s a racer. And the thing is, unlike Pedersen, no riders have any issues with Doyle’s style of racing. Being fast & hard doesn’t make him dangerous - also consider as a result he has incurred far more personal injuries than his opponents.

Neither do any of the other 14 to be fair - maybe they shouldn't bother.

There are a few things beyond the obvious keeping the Russians sidelined.

If they are now to be considered "Polish" then it is up the PZM to nominate them to contest the GPs -- presumably through next season's GP Challenge system.        But obviously, there is a restriction on the nominations from any one governing body.    That will mean they take the place of two "real Poles" in the system, which might not go down too well with the Polish public, who don't generally like Russia as a neighbour, and would feel aggrieved if (say) Magic and Dudek were dropped by the PZM to allow Emil and Laguta into the qualifiers......

Another route would be via the European Championship, albeit that only one could win it, and enter the GPs that way.   

But again, FIM Europe (a different organisation from the FIM in many ways) will have restrictions of their own.......

In short, I don't see either of the Russians getting back into the GP system in the forseeable future.  Unless the war is ended, of course.

Over to you, Mr Putin!

 

How many years were Americans and Brits banned for when we were bombing countries trying to find weapons of mass destruction etc?

Yeah never mind about rider safety as long as people are watching. 

It's the new world according to Phil Morris and Disney. It's now all about how many "views" incidents attract. The world of clickbait and short attention spans now dominates in the quest to please broadcasters, that's what it's all about. And in the GP's Doyle's more likely to provide it than most, whether he is classed as dangerous or not is irrelevant
