At 15:05, why does this muppet of a commentator say that Mauger is riding for Great Britain? Sorry you ignorant Pom, but the greatest speedway rider the world has ever known comes from NEW ZEALAND, you know that little country in the South Pacific to the east of Australia?
Piękne chwile Polskiego żużla. Szkoda że po J. Szczakielu 1973 na kolejny tytuł IMŚ trzeba było czekać aż do 2010 T. Golloba., a w 2019 B. Zmarzlik. Dziękuję za pokazanie tych wspaniałych Polskich zawodników P. Waloszek, Z. Plech, E. Jancarz, R Jankowski. Pozdrawiam 👍👍👍👍🙋♂️
I was at that meeting many years ago and I still have the programme. I believe it was the largest attendance ever at a speedway meeting 145,000, it was a great experience.
Te mistrzostwa świata z 1973 są znane nie tylko dzięki pierwszemu Polakowi, który wygrał mistrzostwo na żużlu. Są one również największymi zawodami żużlowymi w historii. Na trybunach siedziało 120 tysiecy osob, co jest niepokonanym rekordem jeśli chodzi o frekwencję na żużlu. Najbliżej do tego rekordu w dzisiejszych czasach jest Grand Prix na Narodowym, gdzie co roku na trybunach zbiera się 50 tysiecy osób.
i,ve seen this so many times and still cannot understand how peter collins was awarded the win when he was last when the crash happened. if anything plech should have awarded the win
@@rogerhatchett1666 DDR referee was thinking for 30 minutes, every team was talking to him during these time. Russians were mad, Anglos were mad (because of decision to not re run was hurting their rider) so he decided to chose "Golden mean".

WOW to see such BLATANT cheating was alive and kicking in the 70's Speaks volumes but regardless entertaining! You couldn't make this up if you tired lol
I was five when this took place. At the age of ten I was a real speedway statto . So watching this was fantastic to put pictures to the stats. All I’d seen before was just a picture of the rostrum. What a great and controversial meeting. Thanks. Keep the good work up.
RIP Ivan Mauger.....what a great speedway rider he was in his day.....shocked by the lack of discipline in that last race.....it should have been re run.
amazing stuff watching this again after so many years - some crazy refereeing, fantastic crowd scenes, wonderful commentary from Dave Lanning - speedway at its 1970s best
Plus at 15 minutes he said that Ivan was British...........For Britain and Exeter we have Ivan Mauger....Er Nope....Anyone can pronounce Russian names Speak speak backwards...LOL.........Know what you mean tho.....Hard to get you tongue round
That last race was fiwed....Look at the start Marshall the tapes went up even before HE was ready.....Am i saying a phone call was made in the pits ???????Oh yes
It was appalling i remember it well even though i was only 12 i can remember thinking this is corrupt . The start Marshall was bent , he would up the tapes as Szczakiel approached the tapes giving him the jump on other riders , The referee decisions stunk As Dave Lanning said in summing up the 1973 world speedway championship, they re-wrote the rule book to get their boy on the rostrum
Szczakiel was the best rider that day, not just on starts but all around, i think only Olsen was able to hold him to second place. Some of you see only Mauger as the should be winner but what he did is committed a foul by trying to bring both riders down hoping for a rerun, and deservedly ended his day.
That is massively unfair, he won the World Pairs with a maximum and beat Mauger TWICE in this meeting. In fact over their careers Mauger won 7 heats and Szackiel won 6. As for the World Team final Szackiel crashed heavily in practice being hurled over the handlebars headfirst into the track and suffering a severely gashed leg and ruptured artery when the handlebars pierced his thigh. AND also had to ride bikes he had never even sat on before that had been built by Briggs because his own machinery was lost in transit to Wembley. Mauger was always fulsome in his praise of the Pole and said he was massively underrated and wrongly criticised.

Unbelievable really Unbelievable Ivan mauger has another world title as far as I am concerned

Andy Lockett good old Dave lanning , brilliant speedway commentator ! I miss those days of when speedway was in its hey day .
I agree.......Except Lanning seems to think that Ivan is from Great Britain.......well according to what he says at 15 minutes
Andy Lockett The racing was pretty poor though.... especially if you compare it to the GP riders and lines used nowadays..... except for Ivan.
@@michaelrudge3927 When Ivan Mauger started racing in NZ it was still a part of GB.
I splitted my sides hearing how the great Dave Lanning's pronouncing Polish and Russian names. FYI World Champion of 1973 name is [yezhy shchackyel]

It's somehow funny that British commentator even didn't know that this final was in Chorzów, not in Katowice :D
it says Katowice in big letters on the centre green
Stadion Śląski is in Chorzów, which lies in Katowice's agglomeration
He could never be accused of putting detail before sensationalism.
it was in Katowice, I was there by the sart line even the Poles could not undersand Szczakiel riding like he was on something ? Ivan has carb problems
Mauger mentored Olsen at Belle Vue in 1967, Dave Lanning? don't think so,try Newcastle Diamonds instead.
lol true
He was simply the best rider on the night.
No, he was simply the best at rolling starts.
,,,, true
@@stevelomas4119 ,,,,, that's how was then
This was the weirdest yet somehow the best world final.
Lanning was hugely overrated as a speedway commentator. In fact, the sport has never had a good one. Tatum is abysmal.
Yeah, he was a bit rubbish wasn't he.
blatantley fixed.
I was there
Probably the poorest ever world champion in Sweedway?
yeah has to be, he scored 0pts in the wtc 2 weeks later,
