"It took a while to really decide if I wanted to go there (Plymouth), but I really enjoy racing. I need to race a lot and I didn’t have any contract in Poland or any other leagues, so coming to the UK was the right decision." Czech star Daniel Klima is hoping for a longer stint in Britain's Championship this summer after injury ruined his 2025 campaign with the Gladiators.
TEL VISION IS MISSING
"In my 26 years in the sport as Poole owner, there has been nothing like those two moves, bringing Sky Sports into speedway and then launching the Cardiff GP. There hasn't been close to a level of success like that. Those were both brought about by Terry Russell." Pirates boss Matt Ford pays tribute to the late BSPA chairman and president.
DOYLE TOPS USA BILL
"We have our own streaming service, which is at usaspeedwayracing.com. It's a high quality streaming service. It's going to be a little bit more American style than BSN but we will still have graphics for the heats, commentary, interviews and other things between the races. The stream costs £14.99, so it's a pretty good deal." American promoter Steve Evans on plans to livestream this Saturday's Super Prix individual meeting from California, where Jason Doyle is the big name attraction.
