I think that's a bit harsh on some of the riders, it's only a few years since Scott got 14 at the NSS and Bangs did ok in the world cup or whatever it's called plus Lawson has also done ok there before. When you miss the start you're not going to overhaul a Belle Vue rider, as King and Musielak found out. You have to give credit to Belle Vue, their riders are so good around there I don't see them being beaten, it's their away performances that will be key to winning the title this season, which I think they will.
It's a game of two halves so let's see what happens Thursday but I still think King and Nicholls should swap riding positions.
