PREVIEW: BRITISH YOUTH CHAMPIONSHIP, Scunthorpe

SCUNTHORPE host the first round of the 2021 British Youth Championship at 125cc level today (Sunday) after their league clash with Glasgow.

GB Youth boss Neil Vatcher said: “For this group it has been a long wait for the first round, but Scunthorpe will be a great place for them to start their Championship, as all the riders are familiar with the circuit.

“With the top riders from the 2020 series all moving up this year, this will be a new group competing for this year’s Championship so an exciting series ahead.

“The group is split into two classes, and it would be impossible to predict a winner at the end of this year’s series, as traditionally this is the class where the riders make the biggest improvements.

“As well as some seasoned regulars there are several newcomers competing today so an exciting afternoon not only for the riders and their families, but for me as well.

“Our thanks to the Scunthorpe promotion for their continued support of British Youth Speedway.”
