ZODIAK 304 Posted January 31, 2015 Sissis 1,1,0,3.3 Fell 1st turn in the race he didn't score and got off the track. finished the heats with a win, but only 2 riders in the race! Didn't trouble 2nd in his semi final. I know for a fact Chris Louis watched him very closely at Foxhall last summer. I think Louis made his mind up there and then that it wasn't an option he was going to explore in great detail! No offence to the lad but he looked abysmal, couldn't turn the bike properly around the bends and was slow and constantly out of shape. Almost looked as though it was the first time he'd ever sat on a speedway bike let alone ridden one. Could all be a red herring of course and he could well turn out to be decent given time. I won't hold my breath though.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted January 31, 2015 Think a few Witches fans thought he would sign for the Witches and surprised that he went to Sheffield. Not had much racing on a 500cc so can only improve and with Sheffield being a bigger track it should suit him more. Certainly think he will struggle at the smaller ones, Pinjar is about 160m i believe, so at the moment glad we got Covatti rather than Sissis...... time will tell.

Baldyman 6,243 Posted January 31, 2015 I think Sissis won 3 under 16 titles, before giving the red bull series a go, so he can obviously ride a speedway bike, but a 500 bike is a different animal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZODIAK 304 Posted January 31, 2015 Agree it's a different animal. There's been youth stars over the years that looked like they had the world at their feet, only to flop once they moved on to 500cc and disappeared. On the flip side there's been others who looked pretty ordinary at youth level who then thrived on 500cc and had good careers. Always dangerous to make predictions though before a competitive wheel has been turned as you can end up looking a right turnip. That's why I'll sit firmly on the fence and say Sissis could actually do very very well, or he might not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
