While not disagreeing with your sentiments, I feel it should be pointed out that Nick Morris did not fail any drug test. He just didn't take one. -

I think pretty much all the supporters think the same but unfortunately the GP circus charge so much for tracks to put these meetings on with the tracks generally just getting tickets sales and catering etc so most insist on at least one home rider to try and attract home crowds. Quite why we have the joke of our current GP points allocation is even harder to explain, consensus seems to be the GP circus is very close to collapse or major change, cannot imagine why as let’s be fair the racing is absolutely fantastic at every track and all have very even gate stats. 😉

But there isn't more than 7 world class riders in the series this year is there? Politics stopped two of the best being entered or even giving them a chance to qualify. People need to realise SGP isn't the best of the best, its about trying to accommodate and be inclusive of all riders for various nationalities to make it appealing to BS countries who don't have the calibre of riders to warrant being in the SGP. I pay money to 'try' and watch the best beat the best. SGP isn't that... Poland's club meetings have better races than the Grand Prix so that tells you everything you need to know about the Grand Prix. It's basically a European tour of Speedway with a few of the best riders in the world.

Whoever finishes 8th in the GPs is going to be an incredibly good rider, just because someone doesn't finish in the top 7, doesn't mean they shouldn't bother entering. There are more than 7 world class riders in the series, so there will always be brilliant riders who don't finish in the seeded spot for 2026 and that's before you even consider injuries. Why is trying to get another way in unfair? If GP riders & non GP riders enter the qualifiers to ensure the best make next year's series, what's unfair about that? If non GP riders can't get into the GPs because they lose to GP riders in the qualifiers, then that means they're not good enough for the gaps right? For clubs like Sheffield who want to sign international superstars, it comes with the knowledge they may miss meetings when racing elsewhere, not great for fans of British Speedway, but that's just the way it is now.
