CHAMPION BRENNAN FLIES BRITISH FLAG IN CARDIFF SGP2 EVENT

Great Britain’s FIM Speedway of Nations world champion Tom Brennan returns to the world stage at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium after being named as wild card for the FIM SGP2 of Great Britain on Sunday, August 14.

The 2021 British Under-21 champion lines up in the No.16 race jacket in round two of the FIM Speedway Under-21 World Championship series – rebranded as SGP2 for this season as part of new global promoter Discovery Sports Events’ vision to develop and shine a spotlight on the sport’s junior stars.

Cardiff’s Principality Stadium is comfortably the biggest and best stadium ever to host a round of the sport’s under-21 championship as the SGP2 stars compete less than 24 hours after the FIM Speedway GP of Great Britain on Saturday, August 13 at 5pm.

The SGP2 round is part of an action-packed weekend celebrating Speedway GP’s 20^th visit to the Welsh capital, and Brennan will be determined to fly the British flag in style.

He joined forces with Speedway GP trio Tai Woffinden, Robert Lambert and Dan Bewley to lift the FIM SON world title in Manchester last October – winning Britain’s first world team title since 1989.

Helping to end that 32-year wait puts the 21-year-old into the history books and now he will be determined to become the first-ever SGP2 winner in Cardiff.

Brennan races for the Belle Vue Aces in Britain’s SGB Premiership, as well as Scottish side Glasgow Tigers in the SGB Championship.

He is joined in the FIM SGP2 of Great Britain by track reserves Drew Kemp and Leon Flint, who line up at No.17 and No.18 respectively.

Tickets for the FIM British Speedway GP include entry to Sunday’s SGP2 event, which gets underway at 1pm UK time. To secure your spot in Cardiff, book your tickets here now: https://bit.ly/3ixX9wQ
