Sidney the robin 4,735 Posted February 11, 2018 (edited) How do you think Martin Vaculik will fare in the U.K personally i can't wait to see him ride he is a World class rider a top eight performer for me.Really interesting reading that Martin believes conquering the technical tracks in Britain will help his quest to try to be World Champion i think he will be a big hit over here.

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted February 11, 2018 Looking forward to seeing him ride, but I don’t think he will find it very easy. If he maintains his starting average he will have done well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fromafar 10,363 Posted February 11, 2018 Depends on his commitment to GB.Should have little trouble from standard of majority of riders,variety of tracks might be his problem with set ups etc . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MattK 3,447 Posted February 11, 2018 Looking at the calibre of the teams, I'd predict that he finishes in the top three come the end of the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To Doyle and Iversen presumably. The question is if Vaculik isn't third then who will be? Morris, Fricke, Cook, Thorssell, Kasprzak, Holder... There are plenty of credible candidates.

Skidder1 7,637 Posted February 11, 2018 Vaculik is a quality rider and will do well - eventually. No doubt helped considerably with set-ups by the likes of Hans Andersen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,780 Posted February 11, 2018 Might find it tough initially with all the tracks being new to him but should improve as the season progresses and then really flourish next year if he comes back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BluTiger 21,700 Posted February 11, 2018 Martin Vaculik is a class act, he will be one of the top performers in this league without a doubt... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

poolebolton 464 Posted February 11, 2018 Love it when people say “ask me in October”. This is the point of a forum to discuss something which hasn’t happened yet. Vaculik will struggle at Wolves but the rest he will be fine. Could smash it at BV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
