mikebv 10,269 Posted October 2, 2021 Doubt it.... Russia not there.... More is the pity.. Zmarzlik using the "Zmarzlik corridor" again... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iris123 20,970 Posted October 2, 2021 Think Laguta was more interested in staying out of trouble, so he could enjoy the celebrations, and who can blame him ? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s very difficult to stop him though ,he does have the knack of still making a good corner at that speed..well done to Laguta,him and Smarzlik were head and shoulders above the rest this season.

full-throttle 182 Posted October 2, 2021 Congratulations to Artem, and big kudos to Bartosz for what was a very good interview being the medal presentation 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikebv 10,269 Posted October 2, 2021 Not the greatest season ever, tracks have been too poorly prepared too often (soaked through), for it to be a classic. Good tracks at that as well.. However, still plenty of top racing which highlights just how great this sport can be when properly presented and structured... Time for a few to drop out permanently now I would hope, Zagar and KK have given excellent value over the years but some younger blood now needs to be introduced.. Hopefully Lambert can get a WC as there are certainly a fair few examples this year where he has shown he is capable, and 10th in the world is a fair achievement... Hopefully the Polish track bias will reduce next year and a few more technical tracks join the circus... Great to see a brand new name to be added to the list of greats who have won the World Title..

OveFundinFan 4,140 Posted October 2, 2021 A worthy champ this year, certainly rode different in 2021 then previous years. I wonder if pressure to be the first Russian world champ is now gone off Emil it may see him next year as a champ contender. We will see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Emil has been my favourite rider since he first burst onto the scene, but his inconsistency really frustrates me.I fear he will go down in speedway history as the greatest rider never to become world champion. I do hope he proves me wrong. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk127 1,359 Posted October 2, 2021 Nice touch by Bartosz to appear on Canal+ alongside Mr Gollob the best rider that has ever graced a track. Well down to all the riders and good luck in 2022 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty sure most of us were saying that about Greg Hancock in 1999 .. and 2000 .. and 2001 .. and 2002 etc etc .. and 2010. And then what happened? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Col 854 Posted October 2, 2021 WTF was the music they played when Laguta was on top of the rostrum? Didn't sound like the Russian anthem..... I haven't watched any podiums all season so they could have played that music all season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
