No regulation in the book to alliw a facility for that Either Saturdays facility was against the regs or him returning within 7 days is This reg is actually one that has been amended this year exactly to avoid this type of situation yet has been ignored...

TonyE Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 Compassion may have come into it somewhere. As with most things speedway, I doubt an official explanation will be forthcoming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crescent girl Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 Let's end this one. Mrs Lawson was taken into hospital late on Friday night. Lakeside given a facility by MC to allow Richard Lawson to be with her. There was no complaint by Berwick about this, and with the lady now back home and resting, Richard can resume racing, as he did last night. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad that common sense has been used here as it’s ridiculous to ban every rider for 7 days if they are ill or have family problems. All the best to Mrs Lawson. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is speedway, so any rule can be bent or broken at any time. no one knows why Richard was absent , injury ,ill or otherwise . apart from being human, everyone has a wee hiccup in their life .
