If only they had known the SON was on this weekend they probably would have avoided running any Speedway meetings ... Maybe the FIM should ensure their fixture dates are clear for everyone to see and planned well in advance? After all The UK promoters cannot be expected to be mind readers can they??? The Queen's Competition is devalued now for me... Let's hope she isn't offended... Edited July 29, 2022 by mikebv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaizer 2,864 Posted July 29, 2022 Slightly pedantic question but as Tom and ulle have same average as of 1st August anyone know who is treated as the higher averaged? With Tom potentially missing meetings would make sense to be him as can get a guest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is set out in the rules: the higher ranking in team order goes to rider with higher average in previous month's GSAs 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
