Kurtz with 3+2 for Leszno. Not to bad felt he just needs a few more rides on bigger tracks to get sorted. Should be better at Leszno i imagine. 

 

Poole assets Magic and Milik on fire with 12 and 11.  

Miliks improving hand over fist mate.

Just seen live stream of Sparta v Leszno.

Initial reaction is that Kurtz engine doesnt look fast enough and yet again choked when it mattered most. 3 paid 5 from 5 rides incl 2 last places in last 2 rides. Arguably cost Leszno victory as was well placed third on last bend of his final ride but lost out to Drabik who was braver up the inside nd took him form the back. Also considering Drabik has less practive than Kurtz has this week I think we saw who is the better rider.

Early days I know but he needs to get quicker engine (maybe its his set up), and also needs to be more ruthless as had he been braver he would have won that match for Leszno.

Even so another good meeting served up by these 2 teams similar to the last match of last season.

Had it have been Cook with that score and performance rather than Kurtz then you and certain others would be ripping in to him......

Cook is a league below and also a GP rider so what you expect. 

Not starting in Poland says a lot.

Well Woryna certainly shone today with 13 paid 15 for a paid max :-) Comments indicate he is really fast as he scored points from behind in more than one ride.

Spaniak not so impressive with 4 paid  6 from 4 rides but had a fall in that. He also wasnt over impressive in an earlier training challenge match this last week.

Again early doors for Spans as it is a new team and track and maybe new equip to be ridden in if as i read earlier he is using his last years POL equip in UK this year. Hope so as that equip was flying for him last year in POL.

Going to be interesting to see how they bed in this year in UK, but seems maybe Matt Ford already has one or two options in Jackobsen and maybe even Smektala if Spaniak or any other lower order doesnt step up to the plate come June.

Except his final ride which he was way out the back and cost them a point but arguably same can be said for Kurtz for Leszno who's bike  looked a bit slow but hopefully will improve as he gets more experience.

Everyones entitled to one bad ride, overall he's improving rapidly..
