I wasn't expecting too much as I agree his career is in decline but what I have seen up to date has been poor IMO.Like I say maybe not into the swing of things yet.
A poor statement to make from a Promoter ,I suppose it's just the usual sour grapes because it's aPoole Rider involved.There would be no rider left in some meetings I have seem over the years.
Maybe the track should have been prepared better for such an important event,ruts on the inside every year. Does that mean you can't use that part of the track.There was few nasty pick-ups coming of the 1rst bend but the riders concerned got away with it.
Slightly off topic ,but if Germany was so good and helpful to young talent where are all these German "superstar"young kids.Who was Robert competing against to get this vital expieriance that could not be gained at NL level.the odd race against Smolinslki and Schlien was hardly worth mentioning.
Hats off to Jason Crump superb commentary and expert analysing of the race without even raising his voice,unlike the screaming banshee who will be back in place for next meeting.
