Star Lady Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Love the Polish interviews- don`t mind what they ask Which is as it should be, but the closed shop in Britain ignores it and hopes it will go away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star Lady Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 What was said? Got the Speedway on mute  Lambert more or less swerved the question. jack Holder said Lynn track that night was dangerously grippy. In a nutshell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamond_ren Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Anyone else watching this? The track seems pretty bad. Might turn this off as it's quite boring imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
severnsider Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Fair enough to ask the question but does seem a bit like an attempt to deflect attention from the track today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Track poor and pretty much no racing.Far too many engine problems for a world final.....but i guess we should be happy the meeting is on and so far nobody has been injured.I do wonder with all the faffing about holding a long parade and now all these stoppages with the bad forecast that was on sportowefaktly before the meeting saying the weather would get worse as the evening went on...Fingers crossed for Robert And a tip on how to pronounce Fienhage.....it isn't Finhadje  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRyz2CKWBFs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screm Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 I`ve been waiting for that kind of accident all night, dangerous horrible track where riders are just there to survive which is not the kind of speedway I like to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teijahn Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Well done Drabik on a very difficult track, interesting to see if he is as dominant on the smaller Gustrow circuit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Möller and Terkelsen indeed  Haha I was wearing a blue shirt, got on tv quite a few times I heard.  The oldie is Wieslaw Runke, always in green with his Boll cap haha. Great to see such dedicated people every weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g13webb Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 As expected Poland uses the meeting to show off their new riders, we have never heard off and will conquer all. Such is their production line. I think I'm right when saying 5 out of the last 6 U21 World Champions' have been Polish. Â Drabik fits the post to a tee. Exceptionally quick, makes every gate and made everyone else look second best... When you consider the state of the track and the lack of racing this chap was special. You just knew he was going to win such was his persona and air of invincibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattK Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 What happened to Lambert? He won his first two rides easily and then when I looked at the updates he'd had three last places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just knew he was going to win such was his persona and air of invincibility.  Not sure they are unheard of, anyone who watches polish extraliga will know about them, smektala has looked average for the last few seasons until looking much better this year, Woryna has looked much better this season too but wasnt great at coventry last season and Drabik on his day and the right track is ok, but no better than the Aussie trio of Fricke, Kurtz and Holder in my opinion  Drabik looked decidedly average in last week's Polish under 21 championship, where he should have dominated like he did yesterday  I remember Pawel Przedpelski was going to be the one, then last year it was Krystian Piezczek but in reality once they are to old for the reserve places they often lose there places in the dog eat dog world of Polish Speedway  I think a lot of people think they are better than what they actually are just because they are Polish, but for every Zmarslik or Dudek, there is a Daniel Pytel,Kamil adamczewski, Pawel hlib or Karol zabik   None of them will be as good as Zmarslik but it's only my opinions, they could all make me eat my words Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 (edited) Tbh i was wondering yesterday if this was a poor year for the U21's.Ok i am willing to give the track a fair bit of the blame,but Drabik aside the quality seemed poor.The two Danes,especially Partick Hansen looked well off the pace.Lyager only finished a point behind Lambert(i think) but looked nowhere near as good.Lambert did look good at the start and give him the benefit of the doubt that he might have injured himself and that caused his poor form afterwards.But his gating looks like it will hinder his progress.There are just going to be tracks like this one where it will be hard to impossible to pass and when you add opposition who will be hard to impossible to pass,you have no chance if you give them a few metres head start to the first bend.How much Brady Kurtz injury hampered him i can't say.Kostigovs was about the best of the rest without doing much  Just have to wait until Güstrow to get a better idea,although as i mentioned elsewhere i am hoping to make it to the Danish U21 final at the weekend to see just where these two Danes stand against some of the other hopefulls Edited July 24, 2017 by iris123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
