I don't think think there can be that much difference in the machinery they weren't smashing track records every race,just think they are better riders with different attitudes to where they want to be in in the sport.British riders will find it hard to break into the sport in Poland because the older riders are not good enough.Its a catch 22 for them, Cook has already said before that he can't afford Poland and nothing has changed,he earns good money in GB though.Very difficult for him in this situation,he has improved over the last couple of seasons but how does he get recognised if he is going to be inconsistent at Top Level everyone knows one bad meeting and your dropped.No easy answers IMO .I still think Lambert is a talent and will break through.He is showing up well in lower Polish division.
