Never want to see him ride another race for Leicester at least JT gives you 4 laps even if they are that back. -

King will go for that and Kemp pulled up not under power... I wonder if a lesson will be learnt? -

We thought that about Craig Cook last season only to see him announced for this! Hopefully Mr Dickson has learnt his lesson. -

Just saying but each one of those flame machines has a flashing red light on the back of it, that were flashing through the entirety of heat 1 -

There's either a load of Johnny come lately's here tonight or maybe it shows how badly Speedway is missed in the South East? -

GP line-up and venues for 2026
IainB replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
A bigger farce than Kvech & Huckenbeck? A bigger farce than still including a local wild card even though all locales were already catered for? A bigger farce than the Sprint Races? A bigger farce than the points scoring system... I'll leave it at that for the time being 😁 -

That may very well be the case but I'm trying to think back to his WC years (a long time ago now) and I can't ever remember him being a swashbuckling BZ type rider forcing his way through from the back, I could be wrong, like I say it was a long time ago -

Many of the successful World Champions tend to do their work from the gate, Nicki P was electric from the gate during his WC years, Kurtz didn't win it (by a point) this year but most of his work was done from the gate... the exception seems to be BZ who has to do a lot of his work from the back -

Needs to be 1 GP per country and get out to some new audiences, Spain, France, Holland? Australia! -

Okay, let's assume he is affordable... why then is he not seen outside of his country promoting Speedway as World Champion? Where are his media appearances? His interviews and promotional activities? He doesn't even do interviews during a GP on the world feed! I'll give you that he rides in Sweden -
Ahh... @The H Man ... not Harry Redknapp 😂

Can't see him at Poole tonight... cup final as well!

100% agree, Tai should have stuck around in the UK, just because I think he should be a wild card next year for publicity reasons, I don't agree with everything he's ever done, like I said he's a divisive character, he will get press though unlike BZ. And no it's not a World Champs responsibility to promote British Speedway but I think it is their duty to promote World Speedway and you don't do that by hiding away in Poland. -

He's a great advert, his near death experience got a lot more headlines that Bartek's 6th World Championship. And the Poles I've met in day to day life in this country, although aware of Speedway, have shown no interest in discussing it with me... but that may just be me 😂 -

But you're not a 6 x World Champion who is responsible for promoting our sport to the world as that Champion. He's a terrible advert for our sport off track with his inability to communicate with anybody outside of Poland. His on track ability is not in question nor is whether he's a nice guy or not, like you say he does come across as a nice guy... but that's easy when you're always winning. "Me big happy" just doesn't cut it when communicating with the world's media. Tai will get you column inches Zmarzlik's responsibility as custodian of the World Championship is to be seen outside of his own country at the PCMT, Czech Golden Helmet etc. And not price his appearance fee so high that nobody can afford to book him. -
