chunky Posted June 5, 2018 Report Share Posted June 5, 2018 Well, well, well... A great ride from both of them! Another "ruthless" move from Lindgren there, although Lambert was quite happy to mix it. Steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Lady Posted June 5, 2018 Report Share Posted June 5, 2018 I'm still no fan of Woffy, but total respect to him tonight, one of only 2 riders that looked for their team mate. The other incidentally was Lambert in the race with the Swedes. still found the whole format boring . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orbiter Posted June 5, 2018 Report Share Posted June 5, 2018 Tbh Cook had one ride and came 3rd no one knows what he would of done the rest of the meeting at least he contributed a point towards the cause 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've often wondered if speedway would be better if you actually started the meeting after ten or so races... Steve 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t totally disagree with that although understand why he was on his home track, I think the next best option might have been Bewley?

It will turn the track over, a quick track grade and off you go... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BWitcher Posted June 5, 2018 Report Share Posted June 5, 2018 Very sensible interview from Woffinden.. and pretty much shows he was right to what he did all along. GB has a bright future. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell of a leap for a kid I would have used Bewley instead of Lambert at reserve. And then moved Lambert up into the team. Give Bewley the experience. Cook is not good enough in a world class field as he has always showed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps, but GB and Australia wasn't one of them, and some of the better action came from seemingly one-sided contests. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to say I will feel more comfortable with Cook & Lambert in Poland although would have been great experience for Bewley, who is a hell of a prospect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that race had been a 3-3 then Australia would have been in 2 run offs and with potential engine failure or a fall they could have gone out. Tai been cruising up until then. Look what speed he had to win against Sweden, and look at the 3-3 Aussie got against Finland. Aussie was in trouble an I see it as Tai helped them out. It could have put GB in a predicament. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
