Lawson gains because a lower average coupled with his ability makes him a more desirable rider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is if they are both in the same team, if not makes Lawson better value and cairns less value, so that begs the question why did Lawson do it?

To be honest I thought Lawson was poor at times last season, nothing to do with him letting Cairns win races. I think both their averages are accurate, not higher or lower than they should be.

I can think of 3 possible reasons: 1 Lawson knew Cairns wasn't going to be invited back so it worked for Poole 2 Lawson was just looking after himself and his average and it just happened to affect Cairns 3 He wasn't, Cairns was just beating him 8 minutes ago, Neila said: Get that, also he has had a massive teen growth spurt, which may hinder him on a speedway bike It held Bewley back for one season whilst he adjusted. Could be the same for Cairns hence Poole letting him go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
