PHILIPRISING Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 COOK has previously made it through a much tougher GP Challenge than this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes indeed and outside of England, Cook is not at the level of Lahti; a brief comparison of their record in Poland would tell you as much.

Grachan Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 Ellis was probably the best Brit after Woffinden and Lambert at the end of last year, and he is riding in Poland, so not an overly surprising pick. What level is he riding at in Poland? I saw that he scored a 15 point maximum recently but don't kmow what level of rider it was against.

Div 2( 3rd level) but he has just signed as a guest rider for a div 1 team(2nd level). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all good experience for him. From what I saw last year he is the most likely British rider around at the moment outside the big two to make it to international standard. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubtful that it will be on TV however the FIM will no doubt have a film crew there and put together some sort of coverage to be shown after the event. certainly last years meeting in Gorican was kindly filmed by someone on the 1st bend who showed it via Facebook( if i remember correctly). Hopefully he is going again this year Edited August 5, 2020 by racers and royals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, if the end of last season was his peak and he rides like that in this meeting he may well qualify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
