Agreed. The irony is he made mention of this mistake in the BSN interview before the superheat, but then compounded it by putting Masters off 1 in that race, when finishing second and third was more important than the heat win! Surely give Heeps the best chance to get a decent start, then have your fastest rider (Masters) coming through to join him?

Did Sam Masters not know the superheat scoring system? Most bizarre he just raced off, then waved to the crowd as if to celebrate!

You won’t be surprised to hear I disagree with you. If Riss was excluded, he’d have been equally unhappy, as would many others. But that’s not my point - all these kind of incidents are subjective judgement calls (so people will disagree), but the problem is that the referees aren’t allowed to have an opinion of “neither to blame/both to blame equally”. So even if they think that, they have to exclude somebody. A very strange and misguided rule imo.

One of the speedway rules that frustrates me most is “somebody has to be excluded for incidents after the first corner” - why? If it’s a racing incident, 50/50, nobody to blame, just let them race again. Very frustrating! Doubly so in a pairs event.

They’ve fixed it now.

Yes same here, they’ve uploaded the wrong issue.

He turned left at the start/finish line!

We must be watching a different match.

I thought the same as you, but also was only half listening! If it was the C word, drama 😀

Did anybody see the highlights from Brum on the Discovery stream also? Covered in buggy overlay graphics so you could hardly see the racing. So unprofessional - BSN do indeed put them to shame, on a fraction of the budget.
