Was he a KL mascot? He talks about Lynn like he is a fan if theirs first. 

I think he was and he's been doing regular laps around Lynn for several years, and has talked about his good relationship with the promotion and his love of the track.

All that said he's a free agent on October 31st like everyone else and could sign for whoever he wants for 2027. You would like to think Buster would move heaven and earth to keep him though.

Lambert @ No.1 anyone? Will have to ride in the UK if he wants a British license.

[cowboy cookie returns?]

I suspect the number one could end up as Lambert or Zmarzlik with Woryna as second heater leading depending on point limit

If Mayfield can't offer a better deal for Lambo than Buster Chapman then it's a major red flag for me.

Lambert has to ride in Britain to get his British license to ride in Poland, He could opt to ride on a German license but that would mean that he can't ride for Team GB wouldn't it????

Not really Zmarzlik or Lambert paired with Woryna wouldn’t be much different to what Doyle & Emil cost.

Possibly more Guy offering a better deal than Buster assuming he's back helping Ippo in 2027, Buster isn't short of a quid it all comes down to if he's willing to dip into his retirement pot.

I bet there will end up being some sort of caviat put in place, stating that if a rider is based in Poland then he doesn’t have to race British league or something silly like that, there’s already been kick back from riders about all this,

Bewley commented on a post on twitter last night saying it’s ridiculous and they shouldn’t be forced to do anything, he compared it to modern day slavery !

I imagine that Lambo's price tag will be at an all time high now with him being the World Champion.

I could see Lambert at King's Lynn where Buster spends his entire budget on him but then puts out a losing team with 6 riders on the cheap, Would Lynn fans accept that though?

Where's Ipswich do need Leaders and if Doyle is plan B then someone big must be plan A like a Lambert or Sayfutdinov.

I agree that riders shouldn't be forced into doing anything, It's wrong for sure.

Poland will always dictate though and if riders want the top Zloty on offer then they have no choice but to basically hand their career's over to the Polish Clubs.

Another name to add to the mix...

This morning Sportowefakty have published an interview with Kim Nilsson who says he is seriously considering racing in the UK next season.

Someone on here did mention rumour of BSPL possibly chipping in for a bit of Lamberts contract, I reckon if he does come back it will be Ippo with the UK Gp being held there in 2027.

Can see Cairns as Ipswich u21 rider his dad been in Coleman’s ear quite a bit, heard yesterday that Premiership will be using a revised Rising Star list, rider can’t have had a Premiership average of over 3.5 so that narrows the pot ridiculously to the likes of Hodder, Pjiper etc

The quotes in here suggest Woryna will eventually sign in Sweden, and prefers to race in Denmark (or train in Poland) during GP weeks. So which one isn't happening to allow him to ride in the UK?

But Cairns doesnt fit that 3.50 average limit?

While Bewley's comments are maybe a little over the top I do agree that it is a bit ridiculous. If we want the top British riders coming over here we should probably improve the product first to tempt them.

Lambert is in a very difficult position now he has to ride in the UK put probably wanted to stay with his wife and new child in Poland a bit more this season. Putting the new British world champion is this situation is really stupid.

He’d be the U21 rider not the R/S
