Well, well, well...

A great ride from both of them!  Another "ruthless" move from Lindgren there, although Lambert was quite happy to mix it.

Poor 1st half but 2nd half of the meeting has been fantastic... and the lesser nations have been very much part of it.

I've often wondered if speedway would be better if you actually started the meeting after ten or so races...

Tbh Cook had one ride and came 3rd no one knows what he would of done the rest of the meeting at least he contributed a point towards the cause

The problem is that he was on a warning, so keeping him in could have been risky...

Not a classic but as is the case with most Speedway meetings got better as it went on

Always wondered why they don't get a couple of non meeting riders completing 20  laps or so each half an hour before each meeting...

It will turn the track over, a quick track grade and off you go...

Think it just got better as the 2nd half of the meeting seemed to have more even sides in each of the races.

Can’t totally disagree with that although understand why he was on his home track, I think the next best option might have been Bewley? Hell of a leap for a kid

I would have used Bewley instead of Lambert at reserve. And then moved Lambert up into the team. Give Bewley the experience. Cook is not good enough in a world class field as he has always showed.

Perhaps, but GB and Australia wasn't one of them, and some of the better action came from seemingly one-sided contests.

Got to say I will feel more comfortable with Cook & Lambert in Poland although would have been great experience for Bewley, who is a hell of a prospect

Stop being so cynical.

Do you think so. If that race had been a 3-3 then Australia would have been in 2 run offs and with potential engine failure or a fall they could have gone out. Tai been cruising up until then. Look what speed he had to win against Sweden, and look at the 3-3 Aussie got against Finland. Aussie was in trouble an I see it as Tai helped them out. It could have put GB in a predicament.
