As usual, we'll try and keep an eye on a few riders outside the Ekstraliga who might be of interest to our members. And this week we'll start in Liga I and a fixture which sees Grudziadz host Daugavpils, which means Coventry's Oliver Allen and Wolverhampton's David Howe for the hosts, while the Laguta brothers ride for the visitors:

And down in Liga I it looks like Wolverhampton's David Howe is learning a harsh lesson on the realities of failure in Poland. No minimum three races for you, young man. It's a long way to travel for just one ride.

[admin]

And the fixture between Wroclaw and Czestochowa has been cancelled due to heavy rainfall in Wroclaw.

And so has the fixture between Zielona Gora and Leszno, which leaves just the fixture between Gorzow and Torun. And I'm watching that live. Szewczykowski so unlucky in Ht 1 - engine gave up on the last turn as he was leading.

[admin]

It's not going well for Gorzow as Peter Karlsso is excluded from Ht 3 for not having a dirt deflector on his bike.

[admin]

What a fantastic ride from Damian Celmer to pass Rune Holta in Ht 4 - superb ride. And a good effort from Jagus, but Holta managed to block his efforts. Some super racing in Gorzow.

[admin]

And that Ht 13 clash between Jagus and Gollob really was from the top drawer - Gollob put Jagus under all sorts of pressure. Fantastic stuff.

Only seen the last few heats of this meeting but the race you mention was outstanding.

Another good one was the race for 3rd between Kosceicha and Ferjan in heat 14. Ferjan was far from happy post race, presumably after Koscheicha had chopped his nose off on the start/finish straight earlier.

Really wish I'd seen more of this meeting, unlike the Bydgoszcz v Poznan fixture, which was absolute crap for the 13 heats I endured before finally switching over.

You can watch the whole thing again at your leisure here:

I'm up to heat 6.

The Wroclaw-Czestochowa meeting is to be re-run on Monday 1st September. So, will Crump ride for Belle Vue or Wroclaw?

Big win for Zielona Gora.
