i have to ask why some people keep mentioning the likes of Barker, Cook, Auty as none of these riders appear to ride in the top 2 leagues in the world in Poland and Sweden.
Barker is a rider who decided to drop down a level to PL instead, hardly world championship material
hardly any of them should be role models for kids with things you hear about them, some of there actions on twiiter and a certain court case that made the news over here earlier this year.
the only speedway rider that could be considered a role model would be Hancock
is it possible that either Gollob or/and Hancock might not enter the GP's next season and just focus on league racing for remaining years of their careers
