For the GPs doesn't BSI get 'blanket' visas for all riders for all rounds? Or something similar?

Think  I remember Laguta not getting a visa for Cardiff last time he was in GPs.

DON'T think it rules him out of Cardiff

Surely the GP and SoN are the same in terms of work permits/visas i.e. 'foreigners working in the UK. So can't see Holder being able to ride in the GP unless he sorts out the 'issues' in the next few weeks ....

NOT sure that working in GB (ie racing for and being paid by Poole) is the same as participating in a World Championship event.

I was under the impression that visa/work permit applications need to be supported/ sponsored usually but not always by the rider's employer ie in most instances, his club?!

 

For the SGPs it would be BSI

For the Speedway of Nations it would be either the FIM or the rider's home association.

With Vaculik soon to return from injury maybe an option for Poole or if he returns to Leicester we could have Kenny Bjerre possibly.

Can't see him coming back to the UK,not this season anyway.But you never know.

Plus assuming Klindt comes back on his average from last season,you would only be able to fit one of those two Vaculik/Bjerre in at the expense of Kurtz.

I was thinking more at the expense of Josh G and get a lower average reserve to replace Szczapaniek

Perhaps he'll come over to commentate with BT then?!:D:party:

 

NB. Major trackwork being done at Poole today. This is a photo taken from one of the Facebook groups of some hefty equipment.
