If the arguement is what Brit is going to get a wildcard, then I agree 100%. He will be the one that is most likely to increase attendances at all the GPs, which is surely not lost on the FIM.

 

 

What makes you think that? He is just another average rider with potential in Poland and Sweden. Let him achieve heat leader status in all three leagues then he will be ready. I'm not doubting he will be in the GP's one day, just think next season is too early. And anyone that thinks Kennett or Bridger will ever be GP riders must have been at BFD's stash.

Nicholls is better than Harris yet neither should get a wild card.

 

Tai too young and not yet good enough. Another year maybe

 

Eddie K, don't make me laugh, wouldn't score a point unless each GP was run at Eastbourne or Rye House

 

King, that has made me laugh. Big heart but one good show in the world cup doesn't make him a GP rider

 

Bridger has loads of potential for such a young guy but not ready

 

If we get 1 entry I would pick Rico as he did well enough in GP's and has had a good year on the continent.

 

We should see the best 16 riders compete.

If a Brit is to have a Wild Card i think Rico should get it just because he's the best around Poland and Sweden. Along with other people I would like to see the top 16 riders in the world compete but who are these 16 riders? I very much doubt everybody will choose the same 16 riders :wink:

if the brains talking then yes rico should get it but whats he gonna do in reality.yes tai might have a tough first year but at least hes got balls.give the youngsta a chance and we could benefit in a couple of years.it might even get kennett and bridger on the pace

Got to be Rico for me.

 

Although I think Nicholls is Britains best rider, he doesnt deserve another wildcard after this years dismal efforts. Harris isnt good enough, Woffinden isn't good enough yet. He will be but needs a few more seasons, Kennett and Bridger aren't good enugh.

 

Richardson is performing better than ever, and apart from his last season he actually did quite well in the G.P's.

I may be wrong, but I thought I heard Pearson say tonight there would be two Brits in next years SGP. Cant remember which Brit was being interviewed, but Pearson asked the question, could he be one of them? :unsure: You can probably tell I wasnt paying too much attention :wink: But I am pretty sure thats what he said, but surely they wont nomiate two Brits.

Pearson did say he hoped for 2 wild cards

 

Woofenden said he wanted to do the GP's and was getting his bikes ready for it. So maybe he already knows he is a wild card. strange if he does but what do i know.

 

The interview was with Chris Harris but time prevented a question about the GPs being asked.

 

Hans Andersen must surely get a wild card as it's his first bad season after a few top 5 finishes.
