With the Premiership down to just five teams, wouldn't the 2026 season be perfect for Speedway GB to at last bring back a proper 5 Test "Speedway Ashes" Series against the Aussis? 

Would love it, but would Team GB be overmatched?

Aussies, get to pick from, Kurtz, Fricke, Doyle, J/C Holder, Douglas, Masters, Pickering, B/Z Cook, Tungate, and others.

Team GB, would do well to match them, even with non GB league riders Lambert and Woffy, could be embarrassing without them.

RS50 .... Team GB would indeed be  a pool of mediocrity.   

Lambo  and Bewdley the only 2 "top " grade UK riders . the rest Wooffy (if fit)  Dick Lawson , Christopher Harris, Thomas Brennan, Addy Ellis, Charlie Wright, Louis Kerr ? 

Nearly as good as the Cricket Ashes mismatch

Come on, man, your Team GB riders aren't that bad.

If all of the top British riders (Lambert, Bewley, Woffy) come to ride in the Test Series against the Aussies, this would be a heck of an event. Perhaps even of interest to a tv station to cover this test series instead of the league. Who knows?

Five proper speedway tests over 18 heats with 6-rider teams plus reserves, no gimmicks, that's all it needs. 

Make Speedway Great Again !
