tarkens Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 this year's Challenge line up is very anticlimactic, i honestly struggle to see anyone apart from Piotr Pawlicki worth adding to SGP's line up... Milik - not consistent Lindback - please god not again Lambert - too early Iversen - please god not again Smolinski - meh Bellego - definitely not good enough Bjerre - booooring Cook - see Bellego Kasprzak - i simply don't like him Andersen - not good enough Pawlicki - yes please Fricke - only if Chris Holder doesn't end up with a wildcard again Wolbert - no thanks Kolodziej - i dont think he can do much better than in 2011 Zagar - he'll probably somehow end up 7th or 8th in SGP 2018 overall anyway Holder - too early / not good enough so yeah it's not looking good (for me at least), but if I had to choose three then Pawlicki, Kasprzak and Lambert or Fricke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostwalker Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 My hope is for Milik, Lambert and Fricke. Consistency will come from experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poole keith Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 better to have 3 qualifiers than 3 selected by a committee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILIPRISING Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 SOME news faces ... Fricke, Millik and Lambert, who I think is ready. If you are good enough you are old enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teijahn Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Interesting to see how this goes, for mine there's 8-9 riders could win this if at their best but inconsistency is a big issue for many of them. Hopefully the track has more to offer than a gating competition and is prepared so as to allow genuine racing. I'll opt on this track for Milik, Smolinski, Kasprazak, but very hard to call. A shame in my view that Madsen and Jepsen Jepsen are missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
customhouseregular Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Although Lambert had a nightmare in Cardiff I do feel by next spring he could perform well at GP level. Here's hoping he qualifies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INCOGNITO Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 1 Vaclav Milik - Can mix it with the best but only as a spoiler 2 Antonio Lindback - On his day a great rider but far too often disappointing 3 Robert Lambert - Tai was same age in 2010 and he learnt from it GO ROBERT 4 Niels Kristian Iversen - Not the rider he was and like Lindback 5 Martin Smolinski - Not for me and not going to add much 6 David Bellego - Not GP standard 7 Kenneth Bjerre - See Iversen 8 Craig Cook - Think the GP is too much for him to deal with 9 Krzysztof Kasprzak - Going well in Poland but inconsistent in GP 10 Hans Andersen - Great team man but see Bjerre 11 Piotr Pawlicki - Class racer and can add spice to the line up 12 Max Fricke - Better than any other Aussie (Doyle not inc) 13 Kevin Wolbert - No 14 Janusz Kolodiej - Still a capable rider on his day. 15 Matej Zagar - Deserves to be in GP and won't be in top 8 GP scorers 16 Jack Holder - No thanks Piotr Pawlicki, Robert Lambert, Matej Zagar Kasprzak, Kolodiej, Milik or Fricke otherwise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Beevers Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 I actually agree with this to an extent and in terms of the track I think both Smolinski and Milik will do very well. I would also expect an experienced rider like Zagar or Iversen possibly even a Lindback on his day to qualify. Do the young guys possess the experience... possibly not but I would give the best chance to Robert Lambert making the top 3 but I will be interested to see how Jack Holder goes as he is very much a form man in the UK atm.
