PersonalResponsibility

I'm still not seeing the charity - they qualified for this via the SoN, nobody has handpicked Ukraine to ride in this. They've also ridden in every SoN bar one, even before Russia invaded, so that doesn't stack up either. Out of curiosity, who would you pick for the Russian team? Presumably Artem and Emil are a no-go, now they're Polish citizens? Guess we'd be back to 2021 with Vladimir Borodulin, Sergey Logachev and Mark Karion, when they finished below France and Latvia.

What charity? 3rd behind Denmark and Australia in their SoN semi, 5 points ahead of the Czechs. They're there by merit.

I didn't even know Ukraine had that many speedway riders.

Is there a hosepipe ban?

What a way to spend a Friday evening. If only the weather had been perfect all day...

Leicester gone strength in depth but without much strength, and no depth.

It's just another stupid rod that British speedway has made for its own back. Nobody is going to be bothered if Edinburgh get a guest for Dan Thompson - it's the BSN Series, effectively challenge meetings - but the rules say one thing and they decide to do another. Either enforce the rules as they are, or accept they need looked at and change them to better reflect reality.

I thought Linda had done another video...

Promoters have a long history of working together for the greater good, putting aside any differences to ensure the right outcome. I'm sure it'll go just perfectly...

Blimey, never mind just the rider's health, 10% of that amount could do wonders for the sport's health!

Not safe for them to say

Any chance you can tell us how Northampton's first season went?

Woffinden has apparently been promised a WC for next season, provided he rides well and avoids injury this year. I don't think they've learned anything.

Oh no. I hope she hasn't taken Hancock with her...

While I agree with your general point, I'd be interested to know what has made the biggest difference. Is it all of the additional fitness, psychology, etc., etc. or is it just the fact we now have 2 genuinely world class riders in an era where the top competition is a pairs one? Maybe the 2 go hand in hand, and Lambert and Bewley are where they are because of all the extras, but I think they'd probably be there regardless. We've won 2 SoN titles since its inception (one which was a bit fortuitous). It's an improvement on the past but it's about what you'd expect with the riders we have.
