Speedway attracts a lot of criticism and, yes, many races were/are won for the gate (and I'm sure that the same applies today) but when the package is right what a sport! I always used to go home happy if I saw one superlative race in a meeting amongst some pretty standard fare which often depended on any particular track and surface which encouraged/discouraged good racing...not all tracks were so blessed due to the restrictive measures in place and still is the case today I'm sure.

Good stuff although the screaming commentary got on my nerves! Good to see old "City Rebel" Marek Cieslak in the pits carrying out his role as Team Manager.

Maybe that's where Lewis Bridger picked up the habit from, really annoying trait and you would imagine it would only serve to reduce control, also possibly speed.

I would tend to agree although I remember that Todd Wiltshire used to adopt the style to a fashion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
