Anyone got the actual heat line ups?

That was my interpretation, at least Lewis got 2 points to keep the flag flying Edit: Didn't Tai do that last year in his first ride in the U21's final?

Gustafsson at 22/1 is worth a punt, if only I was 18

I would not be surprised if King is used instead of Bridger at P'boro but then Bridger used at the race off wherever it is. I don't envy the decision on whether to include Scott or not as Lyons will have his critics either way even before a wheel is turned.

I'm happy with 254 points considering I came in after the first GP

Emil scored 20 which is doubled to 40 if he is your captain I had Crump © 32 Emil 20 Adams 3 Hancock 5 Lindback 17 Total 77

I can see him pulling out after Cardiff but not earlier. A real shame but his bike is not fast enough simply.

Crump for me

Anyone attend the practise today? Interested to know how Lewis did following his injury.

Completely agree with you there hagonshocker Purely from an Eastbourne perspective I am disappointed for Simon as it would've been good to have two Eagles riders in the line up.

Tatum kept saying last night that his equipment is good enough, this is blatantly not true. Couple this with Nicholls poor gating he had no chance. If he wants to improve his GP perfromances he has got to invest in better machinery!

New Entry 2 Jason CRUMP AUSTRALIA £50,000 4 Greg HANCOCK USA £45,000 6 Leigh ADAMS AUSTRALIA £45,000 (CAPTAIN) 15 Emil SAYFUTDINOV RUSSIA £25,000 16 WILD CARD £20,000 Total £185,000

Best post on this thread. Nicki P is by no means in any way the best speedway rider technique wise in the world. However, he has the best engines in the world and is probably the best rider into the first turn. Scott Nicholls is a fantastic motorcycle rider and with the kind of machinery and fitness programmes as Nicki he would no doubt be challenging the top 3 year in year out. Lewis Bridger is probably one of the most talented motorcyclists involved in speedway in the world, only Emil is better in my opinion. If Bridger gets some really good investment behind him then there is no limit to what he can achieve.

At least you don't listen to him on Saturday's when he reports from the Withdean on the local radio.

Have to agree with you, he's only 17 or 18 I believe and is going well in Poland. Hopefully a speedy recovery for Ben as he looked really good on Friday.

Anyone got the line up for an of the upcoming qualifiers, I for one hope Lewis Bridger (and possibly Tai) is in one of them. It would be good experience for them.

Now we got no chance of beating Poland in the world cup
