ShanoXtra Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago Eurosport Polska interviewed Zmarzlik and Dudek, Zmarzlik blamed the clutch broke in the semi final as MJJ rode a hard corner, whereas Dudek just said congrats to Australia and such is life. Zmarzlik then was asked is he ready for SWC, he replied yes that is better than the SoN, Dudek just said he welcomes all. I really like Dudek and how relaxed he is!

Another reason why it won't be held at Warsaw, the fans must know this deep down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill94d Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago Glad you guys told me who won, because my recording stopped at 2h 33m and I never saw the final. Anyone else get this problem? It’s happened before with TNT. Went to underwater basket weaving or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago Zmarzlik usually struggles at Warsaw but Dudek & Kubera made the rostrum this year I think. Kurtz, Holder, Doyle & Fricke will start as favourites. If GB don't have Woffinden it could be a struggle to qualify for the final. Wasn't keen on Warsaw as a city when I went to.GP there, it lacks the charm of Wroclaw, Poznan, Krakow & Torun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is unbelievable, I thought you meant the recording just stopped for you! Fortunately they showed it until the very end on Fox Sports "here" in Australia 😉😉😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, I think GBs best chance of a SWC win was in 2023. Poland were there for the taking. We were one rider short but still pushed them very close on their home soil. I agree with you though, Poland's talent pool really isn't that deep as it stands, and Australia look formidable. I'd sooner rely on Fricke/Kurtz/Holder in a big team meeting than whoever they can find to partner Zmarzlik. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
