I think Lewis was a massive under achiever , one problem was that there where to many off the track incidents going on his life , another was his decision to move straight from the conference league to E/L , IMHO a couple of seasons in the P/L would've done him the world of good and helped his career massively .

A good topic but it will "get lost" in this forum. May I suggest that you repost in in

Speedway News and Discussions

where it will reach a larger audience. Just a thought on my part.

 

 

Thank you

I see you have taken advice to recreate the thread under

Speedway News and Discussions. I hope the debate livens up there. It is a good topic IMO. I remember Lewis Bridger in after-the-meeting rides when Wimbledon were in the CL - a long time ago.

Lewis was one of the most talented youngsters I have ever seen. I remember thinking he was as good as Peter Collins and Michael Lee had been at similar ages (personal but unbiased opinion). Such a shame that the potential has never been consistently achieved.

 

Also a real likeable young lad when he was with Weymouth. Some off track situations have probably not helped his progress.

 

Maybe a break from racing is just what he needs and he will come back refreshed and raring to go. I certainly hope so.

Thread has been moved and being strongly debated elsewhere as advised above.
