 So the line-up for the final, we'll go from the inside in the red helmet colour. Bartosz Marz, they had a gate number two in blue. Freddie Lingwin will come away from gate number three in white. Martin Vasylik off the outside in the yellow helmet colour. Vasylik sits in fourth place in the championship. Second last time in Malilla. Passed by Beulie there. Looking for a touch of redemption, wants to win here. Of course they do. Martin Vasylik is building up quite a CV. He's won six Grand Prix. He's made 16 finals. He's got a pretty good ratio there, actually. Winning six times out of 16, that's a decent return. Can he do it again from the outside? It's been tough from there, late on. Track conditions on the outside gate, tough. Inside gate two were the ones they chose straight away. Woffendon had no hesitation at all to go from the inside gate. Made it work in the semi-final. Can he do it again? He's got a hard charger in Marzlik. But Marzlik's in the comfort zone. His main rival really is alongside him on the right. Freddie Lingwin, 20 points behind. Going into the final. Here we go then for the last time. Tapes up, we're into the first corner. Whoa, it's tight. Lingwin's gone down. Just again, tight first turn. Lingwin trying to come across and he wasn't in front. He lent on Marzlik and Marzlik wasn't for moving. No, he wasn't getting out of the way. Yeah, we don't really need to see that one again. We will, but that was just a tight first turn. It'll be all four back. Hopefully Freddie can dust himself down. Craig Akroyd's been a busy bee tonight, hasn't he? The referee's made a lot of good decisions tonight, though. Every one of them. He's got it just about spot on, I would suggest. OK, they leave to start once again. Certainly the three on the inside, one, two, and three there all together. You're absolutely right, Kelvin. Freddie Lingwin just looking to move over and stop Marzlik, having a clean run into the corner there. The elbow goes in and Marzlik does nothing. Just sticks to his line. Lingwin goes down, but that's just typical first turn bunching and we will see all four back. All four back is confirmed by Craig Akroyd. Freddie Lingwin, leaning all over there. If he wanted to be really, really harsh, he might have been excluded for that. I think in the first turn that would be too harsh, though. I think that's absolutely right decision. Yep, have to agree, so we'll do it all again. That's tight. Look how tight that was. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, Marzlik, nothing he can do. He's in the middle of a sandwich. It's just getting tighter and tighter. He couldn't move to the left. Freddie Lingwin will take his time and move back. Another slight delay. Marzlik just trying to... Find an extra half a yard. Yes, exactly that. Exactly that. Martin Vashley. You can see how tough it is off gate number four. He was nowhere when the tapes went up. I think the tracks just basically worn out on the outside. Gonna need a bit of good fortune. Probably you've got to think about Plan B, haven't you, with a cutback and try and grab as much out of it as you possibly can early on in the race. You almost got to miss it, but only just by enough so that you're there on the pace, but you've got a clear run to cut back so you don't actually have to shut the throttle off too much. We'll finish tomorrow, okay? Tomorrow we finish. Yeah. Feels a bit like that field, doesn't it? It's been a long day. Yeah, it has. It's gonna be some tired bodies by the end of this, that's for sure. Sun going down in the sky. Let's hope we don't have too much longer to complete the meeting. No rush, guys. Just being attended to. Dave Haynes and Jono Burke's working curiously now on the bike. You've got some time, guys. You've got a bit of time. It's been a busy day in that pit lane. The mechanics working overtime, straightening bikes. I'm sure the riders have been fairly demanding on changing everything between races as well. Borrowing wheels now as well. Look at that, that's friendship. Lonely wheels out. Pete Adams there looking after the tire as well. The full crew out for the tire, and it's working tonight. As I say, Johnny Orgenson in his corner as well was brought in in Tetero. Took a little bit of time to gel, but it looks like it's beginning to work now. Jon is a calm character, road with Jon. Actually, when I rode for the Coventry Vs, the performer himself, international standard, won three world championships alongside Nicky Pedersen. Well, when Freddy's ready, we go. I understand exactly what it takes at this very top level. Have you had methanol? Have you had methanol? You're good, yeah? Well, I think you had methanol, guys, yeah? OK, about 30 seconds, OK? Yeah, it's all right. About 30 seconds and we'll go. 30 seconds, tight! For 10th time to all four riders. 30 seconds and we go. Two minutes is about to be put on by the referee. Artus Smarzlik looking for his fourth Grand Prix win of the season. In 2021, he managed to win five. Two minutes, guys! He went head-to-head, they won five each. Two minutes, tight! With a terrific campaign. Wouldn't be a major shock if he did manage to win here and win his fourth Grand Prix of the campaign and move further away. He has been the dominant rider in the world championship. As I mentioned before, he's going to lead the world championship by a significant margin, whatever happens here in the final. The ideal outcome for the neutral is for Freddy Lingman to win and Artus Smarzlik to finish in fourth place. Which is possible, of course it's possible, but Artus Smarzlik, of course, will have other ideas about that. He's going to be happy with that. No, he won't. He'll be focusing on a win. So the restart of the final. Worfenden now approaching the inside gate. Run through the lineup for you once again. Worfenden will go from the inside gate with the red helmet colour on him. Alongside him, Artus Smarzlik in blue. Out of gate number three and white is Freddy Lingman and off the outside in the yellow helmet colour is Martin Vashalik. A warning for Ty Worfenden that he received earlier on. He's behaved himself ever since. The start line is tough, really tough with all those ruts in there. Carolina, the wife of Freddy Lingman there, Keeney looking on. Always by his side, very much part of the team. But the rider's just making there too much time. So critical. Well, it is, isn't it? Well, you can just see how worn out the start line is. It's a tough one for everybody, isn't it now? All four star positions are very well used. Nobody wants to go off a fresh patch. Here we go then. Second time of asking for the final in Riga. Green light. Yeah, he's happy now. Moves away, green lights on. No, he's not there. Smalsl against the front. Fars himself round the first corner. Worfenden now relegated to third place with Fred. Oh, the red light's on. Yeah, I think it was because Ty Worfenden, he actually went before the race start and I thought he was a long way back from the tapes. They have to be 10 centimetres away from the tapes and it was certainly more like a leap step. He penalised himself then. Not sure we needed the restart. He's on a warning. I mean, if the race has been stopped, surely he's got to be out of the race. Wow, what's going on now? All sorts of debris on the track. Looks like a peak's flown off. Must be Freddy's. It's flown off. But if Craig Akroyd has pulled the race back because of the movement from Ty Worfenden on the inside. Unless he's seen something else and it's just an unsatisfactory start, he would have to go, wouldn't he? He's on a warning. The hearing that actually the race was stopped because the peak of Freddy Lindgren's was in the middle of the track. Wasn't going to do any harm to anybody. Wow! Let's just take a look how far back he is from the start of his rolling. He was moving when the tapes went up. He will be so lucky to get away with this. This is unbelievable. Look how far back he is. Yeah, he's a long way away, almost a foot away from the tapes, moving as the tapes go up, and Ty Worfenden, well, he's a lucky chap. He's a lucky chap. Surprised the race was stopped for that, though, with the peak coming off. Yeah, you're thinking about the times you've seen a chain guide rather in the track. Slightly bizarre one, that. I'm not sure I agree with Craig there. Craig's had a smash in night, but I don't agree with that one. Another bus jumper. Yeah. I think we're having it confirmed the second warning for Ty Worfenden. Two yellow cards makes it red. Bitterly disappointed for Ty Worfenden then. Second warning of the evening. And he can't believe it. No, but it's a fact. He can't believe it, but he did take a chance on the start line. Only a few seconds left for Martin Vasileg to get there. Here we go then. Third time of asking. Everybody rushing now. Yeah, they're under massive pressure. Freddie Linger and Gate 3. Gate 4 for Martin Vasileg. Here we go. What a start that is. No pink on his hat. He doesn't care. Into second place comes Bartholomew coming on strong. Ty going into turn number 3. Freddie Linger and holding the inside line. Bartholomew is round the outside. Vasileg back in third place. Bartholomew has got more speed. straight past ready look at that how much speed has he got he has found the right setup Lindgren now back up the inside can he get down there no Smarsling perfect superb stuff fabulous start initially from Freddie Lindgren out of shape now the track is deteriorated quite significantly the bar to Smarsling out in front dramatic scenes here in the final one more lap to go he's gonna win his fourth Grand Prix of the championship chase totally dominant failed to make the final in Milena just a month ago won the Speedway World Cup of course two weeks ago in Brotsland and Bartos Smarsling on top of the box again wins in style he hasn't had it all his own way here this afternoon had an exclusion early on but Smarsling will not be denied I tell you look what it means to be so that one as he earns every single one of them but that was a tough night for it was a tough night Freddie Lindgren making it work over time there with a stunning start initially many congratulations to the championship leader the world champion moves on to 122 points now stretches his lead in the world championship the speed he went past Freddie Lindgren after Freddie had made such a superb start it's had to be said yeah was unbelievable it was indeed stunning performance once again for Bartos Smarsling desperately disappointing for Ty Wooford and picks up 14 world championship points but he was looking set for a win his wait for a Grand Prix win will continue can he do it in the principality stadium in Cardiff in three weeks time he'd be very much hoping so but for Bartos Smarsling right now overjoyed with another win never ceases to have the hunger to win overjoyed with his performance in the Speedway World Cup delighted with the team's efforts there but back to individual world championship chase and Bartos Smarsling now has one hand on the trophy you have to say that he's got two hands on the trophy you've got to be honest but extends the lead but of course not by too many with Freddie Lindgren having a great race great great great meeting second place it's all of the final then Bartos Smarsling wins comfortably but Freddie Lindgren back in second place 18 points for him Martin Vasslet picks up 16 points for third place Ty Wooford and then being excluded picks up 14 world championship points we'll do a crunch a few numbers for you Lindgren on 82 points coming into the evening 101 it's not correct but we'll see it again fabulous start initially from Freddie looking like a winner at the very early stages yeah and a much better start for Martin Vasslet as well coming from gate four but Freddie Lindgren just reacted quick the bike just jumps look at it it's not many people pull a bike on Smarsling but Smarsling a little mistake in the first turn moves out wide looks like he's gonna have a run straight away up the inside after generating a lot of speed he's wider in the first turn he's got his wheels in line there he gets the thing going forward it's a little bit too late Lindgren's got the speed but I tell you what you could see right from the first lap that Smarsling just had so much more speed in the bike than Lindgren which is rare because when Lindgren's in front he's rarely slow but here this is where Smarsling's now winding it up he's got a free rein around the outside Lindgren defending on the inside look how much more speed he has must have been a shock to Lindgren just to see how quickly he came past him yeah absolutely so Bartos Smarsling with a dynamic move early in the final which sealed the deal for him my mass which is not always very good to be reliant on it looks like a 22-point lead for Bartos Smarsling as we head towards Cardiff in three weeks time but once again Bartos Smarsling proving his class the three time world champion the championship leader moving further away had a 20 point lead coming into these evenings events
