Peterborough V Edinburgh Sunday 7 May


Recommended Posts

The ref asked Wells to return to the pits and then excluded him.

 

 

The exclusion was announced as for going onto the centre green (another stupid rule given the action Well's (just rounding the tapes) took in the circumstances). Did the ref request it or did Overland just announce it? Just another case of communication problems, that's where speedway is amateur. You're right about the tapes though, they did seem to have a mind of their own. Wells should have just rolled into them, it's a good bet that they would have gone up on one side negating the need to go around them!

He was told to return to the pits as he had lost a chain cover when doing a practice start (ironically had it fallen off at the actual start no action would be taken) not sure if he would have been timed out anyway but going round the tapes just confirmed it hence the accompanying Benny Hill music which personally would have been better reserved for the air fence replacement attempts.
