And he was in punchy mood ahead of the new season.

Here is what he said. “I remember when I said that I wanted to be the greatest of all time, people gave me so much stick for it, especially in Poland. But those people giving me stick are probably happy living where they live and working 9-5.

I still enjoy riding my bike. I love every single aspect of it. I am looking forward to seeing what I can achieve.” Hello and welcome We will bring you live comments from the first qualifying practice of the 2022 Speedway Grand Prix held in Gorican, Croatia.
