If a WC gets injured in the lead up to a GP the hosting country should be able to nominate another one. Anyway I hope Adam is OK and can ride. You called it.

screm 8,057 Posted August 13, 2022 Going off on a tangent but isn't it time we look at air fences, which is great, but the amount of times we see riders going underneath them isn't. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Star Lady 5,400 Posted August 13, 2022 I’ll probably be blasted for this but Ellis says he had hardly any strength in his shoulder therefore was NOT fit to ride and he put three other riders at risk. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So you don't think Collins should have ridden in the 1977 World Final? Or Moore in 1954? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope he gets another chance when fully fit 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
