Season 58

Written by AnnoDomini at 11:41 5/11-2021

  Another 90 days passed by and we have quite a few things to be happy about.
  
  Firstly, team scored 2128pts which is a new record, exceeding by 2 points our previous result from S39 (2126pts). We got 3 wins and 8 results, which is not much, but one of our riders was consistently scoring a lot of points in CB races and that's how the 2128pts were achieved.
  
  And this is the 2nd thing we are proud of. That high scoring rider was Kajetan Krawczyk and with 1070pts he was 10th in OCM rider ranking and 1st in Poland - which means he won the National Jersey. We had National Champions before, like Branimir Babic from Serbia, or Eleonor Berka from Czech Rep, but we never had a Polish National Jersey before - being the Polish team this is a special thing for us.
  
  Other riders who scored points for us were Nick Funder (300pts and a win in Eissh Downhill), Georg Alfke (280pts), Denis Halas (260pts), Kajetan Lis (90pts, 4th in his favorite classic Lappi Sea GP), Gustaw Banas (70pts), Yannis van Haershot (50pts) and George Vandommele (8pts).
  
  Now we head towards next 90 days and wonder what they will bring. This will be the last season for Gustaw Banas who is already 36yo. His final goal is to win 33points, which would promote him to 19th place (first page) in all-time Polish riders ranking. As to other goals, they remain unchanged - have fun, stay healthy and look for new talents to train...

  Nice season, congrats! Impressive how many riders are able to score in your team!
  Hopefully you‘ll find a top DH rider soon, even a better one than Funder.
