Triple.H. 1,981 Posted September 16, 2019 On 9/15/2019 at 3:45 PM, sommelier said: Couldn't agree with you more Col, regarding Lambert and you quite rightly posted that Lambert a shadow of the rider last year winning SEC at the same venue. Was there last night and the contrast in watching the riders in the pits was amazing, this is not a knock at Lambert, but the focus of the poles not a girlfriend to be seen, so different as a onlooker where as Lambert seemed to be spending far to much time with his partner. Just my opinion. Aha The British disease. So many young riders think they're World Champion Elect once they get a 4pt NL average and a sign written van and a piece of eyecandy on the arm. Then they seem with alarming regularity to take a break from the sport. Admittedly Robert Lambert is a bit of a different beast but in reality the place for partners and the vast majority of most parents and other associated hangers on is as far from the pits as possible. Let the rider and his team/mechanics concentrate on the job in hand. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bavarian 765 Posted September 16, 2019 21 hours ago, OveFundinFan said: Doing what you suggest would make the strength of the meetings weaker, and some are already saying the racing wasnt that good anyway, me included. Don't think so, I'd rather have Dan Bewley and Broc Nicol in this year's world u21 series, instead of Rafal Karczmarz and Tim Sörensen. The meetings wouldn't neccessarily become weaker with a limit for each nation. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,754 Posted September 19, 2019 I think you have to consider who is in the pits in a rider by rider basis. Robert might well feel that his partner is an important part of his team ie keeping him focussed, helping him to stay calm, motivating him etc. It’s not for us to say who should or shouldn’t be with them during racing.
