That's more like it. And you can throw in Lee and Kennett.

Once you go past heat 14 you can only get a fair result after heat 21 because at no point inbetween will all seven teams have raced the same number of heats.

So, they're going to heat 21. What happens if we get a downpour that finishes it between those two points and Poland are ahead just because they're had one more ride? 

If they don't get to heat 21 anything done after heat 14 will be ignored in the final standings, I believe.

All far, far better riders than our current crop, excluding Woffinden. No depth, no world class in the GB setup bar one.

Then the "When Poland get in front we call the result" rule comes in to play..:D

That's the only sensible way. Now, what if a rider is hurt in a crash caused by track conditions in a race that was subsequently voided?
