BELLE Vue are aiming to secure their first bonus point of the season when they host King’s Lynn on Monday, April 15 at the National Speedway Stadium, tapes up at 7:30pm.
The ATPI Aces bagged their first away win of the season when they journeyed to the Adrian Flux Arena last week, when they triumphed 42-48 over the PSH Environmental Stars.
It was an evening that had it all; excitement, thrills, spills and Lady Luck playing her hand on both sides of the pits before the visitors established control at Heat 13.
With the aggregate lead in their favour they will look to draw on their recent, dominant form in Manchester to finish the job, while also looking to preserve their flawless home record.
Both sides will be at full strength for this exciting clash, with King’s Lynn boasting some of Poland’s and Denmark’s finest, such as Tobiasz Musielak and Niels-Kristian Iversen.
Club CEO Mark Lemon said: “I couldn’t have been prouder of how the team performed at the Adrian Flux Arena on Thursday. It was a truly exciting match and they rode superbly.
“Things were close. One minute we’re leading, the next they’re leading and it came down to crunch time before we managed to beat off their challenge.
“There were times when luck went against us, for example Jaimon Lidsey suffering a chain malfunction with the chain itself twisting a link and I’ve never seen that before in all my time.
“You feel that things could have been much more comfortable without that but that’s racing.
Kings Lynn will doubtless be looking to prove themselves on Monday and though we don’t pay too much attention to other result, we can’t ignore how hard they pushed Leicester at home.”
The ATPI Aces return home to the National Speedway Stadium on Monday, April 15 for the return leg against the Norfolk side, tapes up at 7:30pm.
Meeting tickets, race day programmes and south stand parking are now available to pre-book, along with race day hospitality, at bellevue-speedway.com.
