The fact he gave so much to British speedway the last few years and it could help him financially is the reason you should sign it and not just be selfish on what you want in Britain. The guy gave his bonus for fastest lap time at Foxhall to the Benfund which he didn’t have to do. Rides and risks his life for entertainment. But you sit on your seat and worry about who will be in your team next year 👍🏼 

I'm not convinced that the GPs are a financial benefit to the riders - the prize money isn't life changing.

The "risks his life for entertainment" trope is tired and meaningless.

Nonsense. He gave his bonus, wow, must've been what 0.0001% of his earnings? I'm not knocking him at all, he's a great rider and yes, appears committed to Ipswich and that was a great gesture so don't turn it into an 'I hate Emil narrative'. He won't be wanting to do the gp's for the money. Oh and that old tired argument of risking their life for our entertainment nonsense, it's a career they've chosen.
