HANS UP FOR LIONS CHALLENGE

NEW Leicester signing Hans Andersen is relishing the prospect of making his second debut for the club this Saturday (July 10).

Andersen, who previously rode for the Lions in the top-flight three years ago, lines up against Scunthorpe having signed to race in the Championship for the first time.

He said: “It feels really good to be back at Leicester as I really enjoyed my season there in 2018.

“I only didn’t re-sign as they dropped from the Premiership and me doing two leagues in the UK wasn’t possible at the time.

“I think we have a great team, and with the riders being mates too it just makes it even better.

“As regards winning the league, I’ve not seen many of the other teams – but I think we will take some stopping.”
