JoeW436 614 Posted August 20, 2023 (edited) There a very few that are as quick as Robert Lambert if out front in clean air but if he wants to go to the very top he really needs to work on his racing from the back when he’s missed the start.

Shockster 411 Posted August 20, 2023 (edited) Torun, have as good a top 3 as any really, but they have no depth and it's an easy passage to the final for Wroclaw, but they earned this by finishing top. I'd marginally favour Lublin to progress, but it's hard with no Holder. Edited August 20, 2023 by Shockster Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Polish Speedway get so much right but this format is a bigger joke than British Speedway. Torun have lost both of their play off matches and then still advance to the semi finals. I bet there isn’t a single sport in the world where you can lose 100% of your play off matches and then still advance. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can’t get on with play offs for me the team that finishes top of the league have proved to be the best over the season and should be the champions 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Najjer 2,916 Posted August 21, 2023 I completely get the play offs and am a massive fan of them - but it has to be for the top 4 sides to have complete merit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
