If he's paid bonus points, which by his scoring over the last decade would suggest, he clearly does. Makes himself employable in each league each season on 'bargain averages' 55 BPs in 2025 60 in 2024 56 in 2023 and 40 so far this year. His riding average is always around half a point more than his GSA, you can't fault him on it in a sport with silly team building rules. Dare I say it, if there was a squad system/no average limits, he probably kicked on a lot more than he as

Which is probably why Cairns appears to be much more consistent than Rushen at Poole. Lawson happy to sit behind him in third or second to help keep his average down

Will probably end up something like: A – SCUNTHORPE: Jacob Hook & Luke Harrison. B – BERWICK: Palovaara & Jenkins C – GLASGOW: Chris Harris & Leon Flint. D – WORKINGTON: Tate & Drew Kemp. E – REDCAR: Charles Wright & Jason Edwards. F – OXFORD: Sam Masters & Killen. G – EDINBURGH: Sedgman & Kye Thomson. H – POOLE: Richard Lawson & Zach Cook. I – PLYMOUTH: Barker & Danny King.

I thought that at the British Final, seemed very happy with 'just' being second in every race. Granted it worked well but he was no where near as aggressive on the track as the other 15. He's coming along as a good little rider but does seem to lack that edge that would push him to the next level and probably why his Polish opportunities have been limited.

So was Charles wright

Polish press are all over it, and it wouldn’t be out of the realms of possibility. there’s quite a few of the sgp boys that look like they haven’t eaten a meal in a good few months.

Woffy's interview on the SGP podcast would suggest doping in all sorts of forms is rife.

Whilst terrible news for Riss who I very much enjoy watching, why was he announced before a proper fitness test? Surely the change should be reversed, as they have a replacement already there for him? If a guest facility is now in place, with a higher average, it will only cause more questions about rule manipulation

Great signing that, not a bad week for him with Poole and Gniezo announced

His eyes have never been fixed so high before though🤣

Kelvin already getting names wrong and apologising that he won't be able to keep up with changes. They have to go without him next year

Cheers @racers and royals Good job the GP programmes come unfilled!

Sorry, another Q…. if Frdddie doesn’t make it through the SWC semi, does Pollestad have to stay over for the GP or a reserve take his place?

If I was lucky enough to be in a position to build a track/club from scratch (with some very deep pockets) the first thing I'd be doing is following the Industry Hills model in the US where the track is essentially in a giant open sided warehouse. No rain offs to worry about. Then it would need to be big enough to facilitate 7 aside 4g football pitches, possibly a gym attached. You could run event's/summer/Christmas festivals etc there Making the track suitable for other disciplines such as flat track would also be a must. Because the vast majority of tracks in the UK have been around so long there isn't the infrastructure there to build upon to diversify. The stark difference in the infrastructure at Leicester to Belle Vue who were only built 4/5 years apart is more than evident

Will it be Huckenbeck in for Kubera, assuming the broken arm reports from DK last night are correct?
