KURTZ CONFIDENT FOR GP SHOWDOWN

BELLE Vue skipper Brady Kurtz says he can look forward to the upcoming Grand Prix schedule with plenty of confidence.

Kurtz will be one of the favourites this weekend for the massive double-header in Manchester which takes place on Friday and Saturday and forms Rounds 3 and 4 of the series.

The Australian will be well supported by Aces fans, whilst Great Britain’s hopes are carried by Robert Lambert and Tom Brennan following the recent injury blow suffered by Dan Bewley.

Kurtz said: “The first two rounds were always the ones that I thought were going to be the toughest for me.

“They are probably the two tracks that I enjoy the least I guess you could say, but the rest of the calendar looks really good. There’s a lot of good tracks coming up, so I’m looking forward to all of them.

“I was really happy with second at Prague, it got me back up the table a bit which was definitely needed.”

Tickets for the Friday event in Manchester are available from the Tickets section of https://www.sgpmanchester.com .
