den sounded a deafening
warning to his FIM Speedway
World Championship rivals,
declaring "I'm coming through

last two rounds and insists he's a
man on a mission as he chases
title number three.
"The last round in Sweden
was a step forward in the right
direction and to get that win
was really good," he said. "I'm
just getting warmed up. It's a
good situation to be in. The boys
above me, it's their champion-
back in the final again," said
Dudek. "I scored a lot of points
and was near to winning, but Tai
was faster. Maybe next time I will
be first, but the most important
thing for me was a good score
today. Second place for me is
very good."
Doyle was elated to put his
Swedish struggles behind him,
after scoring just five points at the
Poland podium after powering
past title rival Patryk Dudek to
win the final. New World Cham-
pionship leader Jason Doyle was
third with Gorzow hero Bartosz
Zmarzlik fourth.
"Woffy" moved up to fourth

eight short of Doyle, who has 97.

Runner-up Dudek was gut-

SGP win continue, but he was
delighted to leave Gorzow with a
very handy 13 points.
"I am happy because I was

on August 12. He has now reached
seven out of a possible eight finals
this year and was glad to regain
top spot in the world championship
from Maciej Janowski, who missed
out on semi-final qualification with
six points.
"I'm sure it couldn't get any
worse than when I went to Swe-
den two weeks ago," Doyle said.
