customhouseregular 1,651 Posted March 3, 2015 I see the USA are represented by Hancock and Manzares. It shows how far down the pole the Americans have slipped over the past 10 years or more. Yes, I know Hancock is World Champion but at 44 he is hardly the future of American speedway. Manzares is a youngster with very little International experience. Given that the USA are unlikely to win the cup, would it not have been better to have picked Wells and Fisher?. That's not to say Manzares will not prove to be America's next best thing, but perhaps it is too soon to be calling him America's No. 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted March 3, 2015 I think Gino will be head and shoulders above Wells and Fisher within the next 2 years - if he gets the chance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
