gonna have a big bet on gollob at 4s with laddies and a smallish bet on the mad russkie

[Hodgy]

Hans 66/1 v KB 25/1. How times have changed. Herbie looks good value - especially on his super quick MONSTER bikes.

Hancock, Hampel, Gollob, Pedersen.

Those odds look right so far. Decent GP for a change after 8 heats.

Let's hope the Bjerre trounces Andersen like that when he's riding for Panthers. (heat 10)

Jeez! Harris is embarrassing, no Brits in 2013?

FIM have decided to measure the engines of the top 3 at Leszno. Good move in my book. #speedwaygp

[Bigcatdiary]

Good GP and well pleased that someone other than the Poles or Hancock won.

Interesting that their was words between Gollob and Hampel, Gollob looked well pissed of with his reception from the supporters.

Was reliably told that Hampel clocked Gollob one in the pits.

Apart from Darcy Ward (the sort of face you'd never tired of hitting?) a decent vid

"If you ever ride speedway and want the biggest buzz then you've got to ride Poland" - UK well down the pecking order these days
