What is this? Is this new? And why do we have 2 U21 riders in it.

Not new but previously the BSPA did not want anything to do with FIM EUROPE events. probably under pressure from the ACU they have agreed to enter this and the U21 championship. as for using the U21 riders - to give them experience.

Do the other nations usually take it serious? With riders like Lindgren, Iversen, Zmarzlik and the rest of the GP boys riding in it or not?

They didn't signup at first but replacing Sweden or Austria who both dropped out.

Great result.Let's hope there is more to come in the Final and it also inspires more from the UK toenter in future.Or should we say inspires those in charge to ask for spots in future competitions

Italy are the reigning champions - that should be a clue!
