Surprised at Lambert getting the nod over Bewley.

In fact I'm  'Bew'ildered! 

It cud only av been Lambert's performances at Torun SGP x2, his home track, which swung it his way I guess? 

But in the SON there shouldn't be an Under 21 compulsory pick. In the SWC yes because there are 5 riders instead of 3.

That's a point, who as been picked as the Under 21?

I expect they've gone with experience, Lambert has now ridden in several GP's, SWC's and SoN's. Would have fully understood if they'd picked Bewley but can equally appreciate why its Robert, there's not a lot between them all things considered.

True, plus Lambert as won the SEC. Lambert/Bewley is a difficult one but I would've thought Bewley & Woffinden riding together at Wroclaw & Bewley"s NSS form would've swung it his way.

Can you tell I'm a Bewley fan! 

But I'm backing the Brits all the way, Woffinden & Lambert will kick ass! Who is the under 21?

It is disappointing that neither Robert or Tai ride ere but it's no different to why the other top riders don't ride here. I agree with ur reasoning.

If and when Swindon come back I wonder if Doyle will still show his loyalty to Swindon & British speedway & return.

But once again u can't blame him if he didn't.

While Bewley has been on form at the NSS this year, you could also argue it's not been against world class riders!

Drew Kemp has beaten Tom Brennan more times around the NSS this season so if the pick is based on performance then shouldn’t Drew get the nod?  Drew also has the scalp of the much revered Dan Bewley.  My only concern with Lambert is that he seems susceptible to tape infringements when the pressure is on so I question if he has the temperament for the big occasion?

[chun]

Kemp 4 Brennan 1 in the head to head heats and Brennan’s win came when Kemp got excluded trying to pass.

Why the delay anyway?  I suspect that it was to maximise ticket sales.   Letting local supporters think, like lots of posters on this site, that Bewley would be included.  The event is sold out now so they can make the announcement.
