Is it even going to be on with the Midlands in the 40 degree red zone on the news this lunchtime ??! 

Yes, the start has been put back by 30 minutes to allow for extra track work as they can't get on there until after 6pm, because of the doggies... doesn't bode well

Why wouldn't it bode well? Seems like a common sense thing to do to me...

Because they've only got an extra 30 minutes to prep the track in probably the hottest conditions of the year, a track that's reportedly been a bit on the dodgy side all year and with kicking off at 8 it may bring the curfew into play if there's any faffing about

Just looked at met office for Wolverhampton on Mon. Obv too early for hour by hour. But had 32 degrees at 7pm and 28 at 10pm. Is that too hot for riders? 

They've ridden Speedway in Australia and Italy in extreme heat, later in the evening but I doubt they were also racing against a curfew

I would assume their curfews would be a lot later if they had them! 

Was just listening to a podcast this morning and they mentioned that Wolves have a "voluntary" curfew of 10:30, so should be alright all things being well
