Ronnie Pickering returns for the Scorpions 

agreed, should never be able to drop below at least a four. i also think there should be two british riders at reserve at the start of each season. 

The Championship being too strong is part of the problem, makes the jump too big for a lot of riders.

I wish him all the best if thats the case, unfortunately he never really looked comfortable round Lynn after his nasty crash when he badly broke his wrist. Backed out of too many tight situations at the AFA last season and its probably a good move for him. Never really reliable on the smaller tracks either.  

They did say that last season's plans were for three years didn't they?... Or was it two??? Either way, I presume all is sorted for 2027 and it is "as you were".... With maybe a TV deal on a mainstream or satellite channel as potentially being the main difference .  

Unless it's a combination of a hard no from him and difficulties with visas, I am amazed that no-one is pulling up trees to get Emil back in the UK, especially Ipswich.  Mayfield's MO is to improve the product in this country and Emil literally puts bum on seats where ever he goes in this country.
