Great Britian (In no particular order)

 

1. Ed Kennett

2. Chris Schramm

3. Danny King

4. Richard Hall

5. (Replacement for James Wright)

 

 

 

Have any other teams named their line ups?

A mixed team of 2 Hungarian and two Slovenian riders will replace team USA in Abensberg.

Sods law eh? GB get the first round when one of our star riders (the best?) is injured. Mind you, we'd probably not beat the Swedes with JAmes riding

 

Anyone have any idea as to who will ride for Sweden? Lindback, Lindgren, Alden....?

Yeah a shame that James Wright is out, but we still wouldn't beat the Swedes or Germans even if he was in the team. Not sure you can call him our best rider as Edward Kennett is getting PL maximums from the top 5. James still has to prove himself in the top 5. Kennett also had a poor season in the EL last season and still averaged near 4.5.

 

Shame we are in the toughest line up as well. Wouldn't think Abensberg would suit our boys and the Germas should fly round there and the Swedes will have two world class riders in there team so no chance really. Shame we couldn't have been drawn in the Denmark round at Holstead which would have given us a better chance.

would have thought the Danes would use Casper Wortmann.

 

I feel it's going to be a little one sided with the Swedes taking the victory
