Tomasz Jedrzejak Belle Vue aren’t shy of giving somebody another chance, and this year it’s the turn of Tomasz Jedrzejak, the 24 year-old that showed plenty of promise and effort, but not enough in terms of points during his last stint with the club. Since then he has matured courtesy of a fine season in his native land last year, so much so that he’s been a man in demand over the winter. It is pressure and demands that Jedrzejak will have to get used to… and quick. For his diary shows he’ll be racing over 60 meetings across Europe over the next six months excluding his world championship involvement and other additional dates. He arrived in England during the 2001 campaign, coupled with compatriot Adam Labedzki when the Aces were in dire need of some team alterations. Labedzki didn’t last that long, but Tomasz showed enough gumption to warrant a recall the following season. However, not through effort, a below the qualifying criteria average for a work permit saw him remain in Poland in 2003. However, it enabled the Pole time to whip his machinery into shape and to launch another assault on Britain. So far, during the early part 0f 2004, nothing about Jedrzejak has changed… He still gives as much effort, it’s just that now his bikes are up to the rigours of British racing and, yes, the scoring is rewarding the efforts despite beginning in the main body of the side, a position that’s his until fellow Pole Zbigniew Czerwinski’s arrival. Thereafter the hard-working Pole will move into one of the reserve slots.
