DW 11 Posted March 23 He’ll do a job especially at home. Struggled a bit away last season but should easily ride to his average 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Struggled a bit away last season but should easily ride to his average His away average was a point higher than what he’s been signed on, so he’ll be fine. He’s the best value rider on the league, on a rolling average/2023 average basis. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SteelShoe 500 Posted March 23 Think Claus is just the rider this team needs, should score well at home on a track that will suit his style of riding, he is not afraid to assert himself on track and is a personable guy who will be a good team man. All in all from the available options I'm more than happy. Well done the promotion and a big welcome back to Claus. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But that is only my opinion,it does look a decent Team on paper but on the the tracks is what matters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From what I gather the promotion had to work too, the deal was only done recently so I think yhe budget could still be in place imo 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

allthegearbutnaeidea 1,734 Posted March 24 Clearly wasn’t keen on signing and has pushed for more money, that was the obvious signing in December and it’s taken until March. Might not be good for team spirit, if he’s on more money than he’s worth, and/or isn’t bothered about riding for the team. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glasgow didnt seem to have any issues getting him previously but Vissing probably thought he had the upper hand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lisa-colette 6,030 Posted March 24 (edited) Seems to be a lot of individuals. So be interesting to see how they get on especially with team riding. Hopefully Darcy has emphasised it to Tate as he was always really good at that from a young age. 33 minutes ago, Fromafar said: Edited March 24 by lisa-colette 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
