The Pairings have been announced for The Ben Fund Meeting on Sunday at Leicester. Team Great Britain: 1&2: Tai Woffinden Richie Worrall 3&4: Chris Harris Danny King. 5&6: Craig Cook Kyle Howarth Reserves: Richard Lawson Ben Barker Rest of the World: 1&2: Bjarne Pedersen Josh Grajczonek 3&4: Adam Skornicki Cameron Woodward 5&6: Patrick Hougaard Ty Proctor Reserves: Nick Morris Morten Risager “The format of the meeting will move away from the traditional fifteen heats. Instead, the two eight man teams will race over fourteen heats and there will be more scope for the team managers to try to gain an advantage. Whoever wins the toss of the coin, that team will have choice of gate positions on the start-line in the first heat but then the gate positions will alternate for every subsequent race thereafter. In addition, there are no fixed gate positions so tactics should come into play for the team managers who will have the opportunity to decide where best to deploy their riders on the start-line. For example they may decide that a certain rider favours an outside grid whereas his partner may prefer to ride the inner lines so that may be how the team managers position their pairings for a particular race” - Leicester Lions Press Officer, Alan Jones.
