Miss gate, then blast around the boards is his regular tactic these days.. Great to watch when it comes off, but against top riders regularly hitting the first turn third or fourth wont deliver much success.. I would suggest he is maybe just still in the Top 10 in the world but not in the very top echelon anymore.. Bikes and talent still good enough, but starting simply miles off.. His gating has always been poor but he has a good racing brain to pick his lines right in the first corner Edited August 17, 2020 by THE DEAN MACHINE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BartoszZmarzlikFan Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 Fricke left in Heat 8. Team manager has chucked the towel in now. Karczmarz & Jasinski pairing for the home team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is in for a very tough year in the GPs. I want him to do very well but can see him struggling to reach finals. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BartoszZmarzlikFan Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 That's why you don't leave Fricke in the race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That cut back he does in the first two turns has paid many a dividend over the years but you cant keep relying on it working.. Expecting it to work against 3 top lads is a high risk strategy if you want success at a world level.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can be proud of himself that's he's won the biggest individual prize but he's going to struggle big time this season with the amount of top riders in form.

He hasn't ridden at top form since he broke his back about 18 months ago. I hope he gets back to his best soon. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BartoszZmarzlikFan Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 If he stay's fit then I don't see anyone stopping Zmarzlik lifting his second world crown this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebv Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 Janowski another whose career is going backwards.. Smarzlik, as he always seems to do as a season progresses, just gets better and better.. Will be a firm favourite for another World Title I would think..

BartoszZmarzlikFan Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 With the rumours that British teams will be keeping the same 1-7's. I wonder how many riders regret quitting British Speedway after the struggles they've had in Poland this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockster Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 Zmarzlik def fav for the GPs and 2 at Gorzow and he won at Wroclaw last year and they have 2 also. He likes Torun too. I think Emil will put up a fight, but less sure of Madsen at the moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madsen is definitely carrying an injury, and doesn’t look comfortable on the bike these days.IMO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
