“It’s one of the attempts to prevent frequent flying starts,” recalls Petr Moravec, a Czech member of the jury at the Prague race, one of the reasons for using a computer.

However, the former famous Polish speedway driver Piotr Swist pauses over the novelty in the evaluation for przegladsportowy.pl. “It was very strange and I don’t think it worked,” he says.

Rough moment, cracked helmet. Thank you rescuers, says Czech talent and continues to plan boldly

According to him, the speedboats were visibly in motion just before the start, which is against the rules. “No one paid attention,” Swist wonders. “It will be better if the referee picks up the tape again,” the former rider said.

Janowski found a recipe for Markéta and celebrated his triumph in Prague

However, the Czech member of the jury would not block the novelty after the first attempts. It started in the introductory races of the GP qualifying rounds in Nagyhalasz and Terenzan. Now, for the first time at the top level, the Danish judge Jesper Steentoft could use it in Prague.

What’s up? What actually happens at the start of the ride? The moment when a pack of predators sets out to fight is crucial in every ride. Every thousandth of a second decides.

Prague – part two
Even today, spectacular battles will take place on Prague’s Markéta. The second GP race starts at 19:00 and on Friday the winning Pole Maciej Janowski can expect revenge from the opponents. Russian Emil Sajfutdinov, Swede Fredrik Lindgren, Brit Tai Woffinden, as well as compatriot Bartosz Zmarzlik, the reigning champion, who did not do well on Friday, may want to return the defeat to him.
According to the once successful Polish matador Piotr Swist, today everything can really be different. Zmarzlik is said to be taking over. “On Saturday we can have two Poles on the podium,” Swist predicted for the Polish media. Like in yesterday’s great race, Jan Kvěch will once again be a wild card as a wild card. Tickets are available via Tickeportal and at the stadium.

Before the start, the Referee will wait for the Startar Marshal to level the rider at the line in front of the belt. He then starts the starting device with the button from the position on the tribune when the participants of the ride are in absolute calm. Or at least they should be. Now comes the change. The judge presses the appropriate button even during the computer control, but the exact moment of the start is no longer on it. This will be determined by the technician. “It is to prevent the riders from reading the judge so-called. This way, he really doesn’t know when the tape will go up and they are waiting, “Moravec reminds us that every judge has a starting” handwriting “and the usual time procedures that experienced riders look through and can use for even a barely perceptible shell start. track rid.

“(The head of the Prague plant) Pavel Ondrašík said that in Hungary (using the novelty) there was not a single flying start. Yesterday (in Prague) only one returned, “Moravec compares with last year’s situation, when there were a number of problematic starts in GP races.” After one race, however, it cannot be evaluated. Time will tell, “he adds.
