40-38

Dust is terrible. You can see riders backing off when they get hit by the cloud of it.

What's with the wheelies in third place?!

What the hell was that? I'd love to know what the referee thought there. Appalling decision.

Some changes needed for the Lions. Bjerre not good enough and reserves appalling as usual.

Has to be I think.

Reserves badly letting us down at the minute. Neither Sarjeant nor Kurtz are inspiring confidence.

One of the best races I've seen all season at Beaumont Park..!

Both are pretty dire at the minute!

*I* wonder what on earth I see in speedway sometimes! 7 years of this at Leicester has left me a more casual viewer for the last few seasons.

To be honest it did improve briefly a year or so ago but it's gone backwards again. Surface isn't anything like as smooth as it used to be either.

It's been this chronic all season folks...

A certain David Hemsley built it whilst everybody else was looking the other way!

Dave Darcy said (in his usual brusque manner) that some supporters seems to think they know more about the team than him and that Wright was signed for 28 days only and Danny King will be back for the Lions so there.

Lions very poor. No bite at all at reserve.

Surely Sarjeant has to go now and how the hell did Masters get away with that? It was blatant!

He's the best British rider of the past 10 or so years bar none and all credit to him. I think he and Lambert have done us proud. I just think, gamble and unlikely as it may have been it was worth a shot to at least try and help Robert through as we were losing regardless.

Tai had four laps to try and help Robert pass Emil. It would have been better to lose 5-1 trying to do that than lose 4-2 while he clears off. I thought that was the point of pairs riding?

Anf if Tai had tried to slow Emil down Robert might have done that! Ludicrious decision.

Why did Wofinden go for the front?!

I can see nobody wanting to hit the first bend in front lol.

Russia or Poland? I'd rather Poland probably.

The great thing is that we have two riders at the moment for Britain who don't look overawed and ride like they belong in that company. even if we don't win it we're competing on a better level than we have for a long time.

Oh yes! Lovely to stuff the Aussies!!

To be fair we could have had the Czech Republic or France and at one point Australia and Britain were looking a bit shaky.

Typical Aussie showboating like they haven't just scraped through!
