Just to chuck my two penneth in, the worst thing about the teams this season is the predictability of finishing order. Ipswich are nailed on to win the Playoffs as long as Doyle can have an injury free season. If I were Chris Louis I would be having a word along the lines of  "Dial it back to eight tenths mate and make sure your in the next meeting" BV almost certain to meet the Witches in the final. KL virtually certain to finish 5th. We need the one big league back, more variety and more tracks to visit. If that dilutes team strengths so be it.

I have a feeling that the same rule applied last season with Eurosport's coverage.

MJJ was not contractually obliged to ride in the 2nd half.

But Thompson scored the same as both Doyle and Emil as it included bonus points and was from for programmed riders only. Think it was only MJJ who was a no show. 

Actually on BSN Rory on comms was saying he was gasping and how he had gotten a cup everywhere else but hadn't on Thursday 

It’s not commitment and it’s not lack of of talent but results matter and whatever the reason he needs to sort it and fast
