GB IN EURO 250cc PAIRS FINALE

THE third and final round of the 2025 FIM European 250cc Pairs takes place in Krsko, Slovenia this evening (Saturday) with Ollie Binns and Emerson Betty making the 2000-mile round trip to represent Great Britain.

Having claimed the silver medal in this competition in 2024, this season has been a lot tougher for the British team, although across the three rounds four riders have been used and it has been a great European experience.

Seth Norman and Ollie Binns have competed in two rounds with Betty and Archie Rolph doing  one round each.

Ten teams compete, split into two groups of five, with Great Britain up against Denmark – who include SGP3 World Champion Villads Pedersen – Germany, Sweden, and Ukraine. Also competing are Poland, who are expected to again claim the gold medal, France, Czech Republic, Estonia and host nation Slovenia.

The latter are expected to cause an upset at their home track as their team includes Sven Cerjak, who is also included in the Slovenia squad for the upcoming FIM Speedway of Nations in Poland. 

The Young Lions would like to thank their series sponsors for the supply of tyres for these events and their continued support in 2025: Nuneaton Speedway Supporters Club, Wessex Marine, Royle T Racing, Ignite Insurance Brokers Ltd, HG Aerospace Engineering Ltd, Northern Scaffolding Solutions, Rentruck of Rochdale, and Friends of Speedway.
