You won't get a facility for etheridge until he's rode for you this season,you would be better off signing a replacement as he's too injury prone anyway imo.
Am I the only person that thinks the safety fence at scunny needs to be looked at,only a matter of time until someone hits the concrete behind it and receives life changing injuries or worse!!
I don't know, the fact that it's used so often surely reinforces the need for rider safety instead of raking in the£££ invest some of the profits to make it safer.
Its not the severity it's the frequency, Thomas,Gilkes, Alcock in less than 12 months can you name another track that has the same record of bad injuries in the same time frame? No I didn't think so
My point is riders crash regardless of ability or experience, the safety fence at scunthorpe possibly needs looking at to see if it could be made safer,possibly repositioning it,rider safety is paramount, what's your point?
The airfence has an armco barrier directly behind it that is the problem not the riders inexperience if a gp rider crashed into the fence at scunthorpe he would sustain bad injuries.
