Think that the mould of ensuring all countries presenting GP`s having a representation was broken in yesterdays GP with Ward bein given the wild card pick ahead of the presenting nation.
I`m sure that the Brits would want a British rider to support at Cardiff but i doubt not having one would distract from the attendance.
Dont think the atmosphere would be the same tho as Harris, woffy or whoever represents their country gets the mightiest roar at every time they are on track.
Think BSI should ensure the wildcard for Cardiff is a GB rider tho at the very least. Will make the British final even more vital.
Harris has gone backwards this season big time and im not sure there is a reasonable enough argument to keep him in next season.
The best way of sorting out riders for next years grand prix is to give those that miss out on the top 8 a chance to compete with those that missed out on the GP qualifier a chance to re-qualify by a meaningful meeting.
You can still have picks - but maybe 2 less.
There really isnt any Brit that at this stage is worthy of a pick - not woffy and certainly not Barker. Neither have done enough this season to show that they would warrant it.
