waiheke1 Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 Is it 4 or 5 wildcards for next year? Top 6+SEC chsmp + top 3 GP challenge +? If 4, Madsen, Doyle, Lambert, Vaculik? Thomsen unlucky to miss out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panthers99 Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 Madsen, Doyle, Vaculik, Lambert and Fricke. My guess at the 5, I'd imagine the first four are nailed on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fricke doesn`t need one !!!!- nor does Dudek and Przedpelski and Michelsen Edited September 12, 2021 by racers and royals 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iand Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 (edited) Kubera must be in with a good shout, looked good earlier in the GP's. It would mean a 4th pole but surely we want to see the best riders in the world in the GP. Edited September 12, 2021 by iand 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice, but unfortunately for young promising Polish riders the fact there are already 4 Poles in the series almost certainly means it won't happen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waiheke1 Posted September 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 Anyone other than Mads Doyle Lambert Vaculik Thomsen that people think have a realistic chsnce? A token Swede instead of Thomsen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A token Swede instead of Thomsen? If either Robert lambert or Thomsen score really badly in Torun they may not get one. Especially Thomsen who would be quite a few points behind Lambert on the old points system. Jack Holder could be worth a go, 15th in Polish averages. Who picks the wildcards? is it the new organisers or FIM? The current best rider outside the GPs is probably Janusz Kolodziej, 7th polish averages and 4th in the Gp challenge. Although can't see him getting a wildcard unless there is change in policy from the new organisers/FIM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Holder and Nicki P are probably the next best options, but neither has really provided a compelling case. I'm pretty sure Lambert will get one - young, British, improving, top ten in Ekstraliga. Of the five I've suggested, I believe only Thomsen is at risk of not getting one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OveFundinFan Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 If Thomson has half good meeting x2 in Torun he probably deserve another crack at it. Conversely if Lambert has to mid-low meetings then he could be in trouble, Thomson has had a podium, that means something. It is a pity for Kubera that he comes from a country populated with good riders. If he misses a pick then he has to be the series first reserve.

Wee Eck Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 Who is higher in the Polish league averages, Bewley or Lambert? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OveFundinFan Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 Bewley not good enough yet. I think for 2022 we got good four between the Euro champion, three from GP Challenge, add the top 6 from this year plus Madsen, Doyle, Lambert, Vaculik, Thomson . Those 15 give a good line up, looks a lot better then 2021 looked/is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan is about the same stage as Robert was this time last year as far as Poland is concerned, but still well behind on the international scene. But which one will get the nod for the SON? The home specialist or the more experienced rider? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
