British Final 11th June 2018 at Belle Vue

Recommended Posts

Well that was worth the effort of travelling up north for. What a fantastic meeting. It has all been said by everyone else but Lambert a most worthy champion. Looking forward to see how he goes at Cardiff now.

Don't know what happened but it seems anyone who set it to record on Sky it didn't record, BT must have changed the programme information at last minute.

Congrats to Robert and Dan in occupying the top two spots... both under 21 !!!

with these two , GB can hopefully be assured of a strong GB team in years to come....long may that last

Fantastic  meeting with a lot of super races.

i am sure that the meeting will have come over very well on theTV.

It must be the only track in Uk that making the gate must be your worst nightmare going up the back straight 1st time round ,wondering where the opposition are going to come from.:D

That's why Bewley is always last out of the gate... He can do the chasing rather than the wondering :D

Lambert was pure class and a cut above the rest of the field.

The thing that Lambert has done other than other young Brits is that he has rode on the continent from a very young age.

Moving Team GB forward we need to get our young riders not only riding in this country but on the continent as well.

Well done Robert Lambert.

Bewley debuted in Poland yesterday... 13+2 from his 5 rides ;)

Brilliant meeting, absolutely fantastic performance from Lambert. A deserved victory and he will mix it in Cardiff for sure. Our little pocket rocket will be a winner of this one day. The 2 years Lambert has on him was the difference tonight. Excellent performances also from Garrity (he was sooo pumped up from the start) and Howarth (best he's ridden the NSS). One interesting fact from tonight... The semi final was the same 4 riders as heat 8! :blink::o:D

It certainly did record or at least it did (the HD version) on my SkyQ box, started watching the recording an hour after it started recording.  Programmed in to record several days ago.

 

It was one of the best speedway meetings on TV I have seen for some time, loads of overtaking and exciting racing. Speedway at its best.

SEEN a few British Finals in my time but none as good as that. Racing at the NSS last night and Wroclaw over the weekend proved and confirmed that speedway can knock any other form of motorsport into a cocked hat.

Couldn't agree more mike1944, we've been treated to some fantastic speedway on TV this past week.

Robert Lambert & Dan Bewley...WOW, WOW, WOW!!
Very good performances from a number of riders last night, with for me, Jason Garrity and Scott Nicholls standing out too.

When speedway is this good , it is very good,      but so can other motorsports.             

 

Wouldn't it have been a travesty had Lambert not won last nights final.    Head and shoulders above the rest , and 4 points clear of his nearest rival,  any other winner would have been laughable.     This format of one Final Race makes the evening  a mockery in finding  the real winner.    If they persist in having a final race then let it be added to the scores they won in the heats....

Of course it can. But sadly only on tracks that suit the modern super fast bikes and when there is a lot at stake. But it was an excellent weekend of speedway RACING. All the riders involve deserve to take a bow ( and a few more quid ).
