LAMBERT TO LEAD YOUTH CAMP

GREAT Britain’s World Champion Robert Lambert will be passing on his expertise at a two-day Young Lions Training Camp during the 2027 season.

Lambert’s rise to the summit of the sport saw him compete at all levels of British Speedway, including the National Development League for King’s Lynn in 2013, and he was a treble winner of the British Under-21 Championship before moving on to success in the senior categories.

As such, he knows the importance of producing the next generation of British talent, and has offered his services to pass on some of his knowledge to the stars of the future.

The Training Camp will be open to young British riders and will take place over two days in the UK next season with a date and venue to be confirmed.

Meanwhile the Speedway Control Bureau have confirmed that despite a previous announcement regarding ACU licence holders being required to participate in a British Speedway league competition, this does not apply in Lambert’s case. The SCB/ACU will announce full eligibility criteria and exemptions prior to the 2027 season.

Lambert will still be competing at the highest level in the UK next year as part of his World title defence with the Grand Prix series coming to Ipswich on August 14, with further racing appearances possible pending confirmation of the 2027 FIM and domestic calendars.
