showed his
toughness by
riding to third
after undergoing
shoulder surgery
just 12 days
earlier.
thing more. I need to look to the next
round in Copenhagen and we will
see what I can do. It feels like everything is getting better, so hopefully I
can prove that."
Holder was gutted to be passed
in the final for the second time this
season after Sayfutdinov did the
same thing to him in Gothenburg on
May 4. But he was content with the
silver medal.
"I didn't realize I rode such a good
first corner in the final, but I made
a little mistake," Holder said. "If you
make half a mistake you get passed
really easily. I stuffed up and Jarek
was there, he passed me and took
off. I didn't have the pace to catch
him. He was gone. But I'm happy
with second. It feels good to be on
the podium. Gorzow is a tricky track
and I was having a tough time getting around it, but my mechanics
were awesome. They got the bike
working a lot better for me and towards the end it was a bit better to
get around. I was a bit faster."
Woffinden was unsure until Thursday or Friday whether he would
make the trip to Gorzow after being
told a crash could have left him back
on the operating table to have his
collarbone plate put back into place.
The Brit was hopeful of lining up
in Wroclaw's home meeting with
Leszno in the Ekstraliga on Sunday,
Greg Hancock leads
Andreas Jonsson and
Emil Sayfutdinov in
the first semi. Hancock finished fourth
on the night.
