BEWLEY TAKES FANS’ VOTE

BRITISH Champion and Belle Vue favourite Dan Bewley has won the online supporters’ vote for ROWE Motor Oil Premiership Rider of the Season.

Bewley went through the card in both legs of the Aces’ Grand Final win over Leicester, and edged out his team-mate and club captain Brady Kurtz in the poll which took place across Facebook, X and Instagram.

Elsewhere, there were clear wins in two categories as Dan Thompson of Ipswich headed the vote for Rising Star of the Year, with Anders Rowe second, whilst Birmingham’s Tom Brennan was named Most Improved Rider, with Ben Cook as runner-up.

The Signing of the Season category proved to be closely fought and was taken by King’s Lynn newcomer Jan Kvech, just ahead of Belle Vue’s Antti Vuolas.
