IPSWICH director of speedway Chris Louis says he particularly enjoys the team-riding element which should be prevalent in Saturday’s Elite League Pairs.

The prestigious meeting will be staged at the Foxhall circuit which Louis played a major part in re-shaping last winter to produce better racing.

All nine Elite League clubs will be represented, the majority with their top two riders, and the 4-3-2-0 scoring system means avoiding last places will be imperative.

Louis said: “I still feel the most exciting element of speedway is good, hard team-riding to keep the opposition behind, something we don’t see anywhere near enough today.

“With the skills of the pairings on show, we should be in for a real treat of team-riding, and I hope the Witches fans get behind Scott (Nicholls) and Danny (King) as we look to put some silverware in the cabinet.”
