The sport desperately needs a governing body to put in place a rule set, a structure, and people who will work hard to make the sport survive long into the future - unfortunately its all about personal gain which has been the case since, well before I know when

I am still awaiting a tweet back from Mr Louis

I agree with what everyone has said 100% However, do you think its more a case of the powers that be do not push it or even think out of the box? Granted, Speedway is not the most popular sport but some of these countries mentioned could potentially do it more for their own people than anything - Take Russia and USA there should be GP's there anyway but places like China/Qatar etc. its a well documented fact that in the sport of MMA the King of Jordan regularly hosted events for an event known as Cage Warriors - this was arguably one of the biggest MMA events in Europe (known well within the sport but not heard of to those not associated to the sport) - Its definately not the UFC Anyway, the King of Jordan actually had an arena built just for Cage Warriors and he would give away all the tickets to the people of Jordan - its called "Entertainment". IF some savvy people in charge of the SGP series were to unlock a couple of countries in this region it may well open up opportunities for bigger sponsorship from business within that region and business who want to be seen as a player in those regions.

Just a thought as this will not happen over night, but as with F1, does anyone think that the GP series could evolve in the future where the 16 riders whom compete within it are doing it on a full-time basis only and thus not racing for a league club? Obviously the money would have to be there in order for this to happen, and the series itself would have to expand from say 11 rounds to 18 rounds - it could potentially take the series to new lucrative countries and not only gain in terms of finance but taking the sport to new viewers For example, adding a round in the USA, South Africa, China, Qatar, UAE as well as possibly expanding with an additional new round at either say Wembley or the Olympic Stadium.... Could the GP series evolve where countries like Qatar etc. pay a fee to host a round? An expanded series hitting new territories should attract bigger interest from blue-chip companies, all I saw at the Cardiff GP was Monster, Monster, Monster plus whoever sponsors each country GP in Cardiffs case Adrian Flux. - There is scope I believe in the future to take Speedway to a new audience into some of the richest countries in the World who have the financial clout to support it even if its seen as a gimmick to bring something new to their own region. Any thoughts anyone?

Not sure what any track covers look like but any that are issued in speedway need to attach themselves to the top of the fence and be angled downwards with any water to fall to run off onto the centre green - I just have this images of loads of covers laid flat on the track. Again if the "Sport" was marketed correctly and run properly in the first place then clubs could easily afford these or be supplied by the series organiser.
