Kyle Howarth called up for qualifiers
Kyle Howarth was part of the lucky quartet selected as Great Britain turned to youth for this month’s Grand Prix qualifiers.
The Wolves ace has been rewarded for his fine start to the season alongside Dan Bewley, Craig Cook and double British under-21 champion Robert Lambert.
Howarth will compete in Abensberg, Germany, on May 21 with the aim of making a mark on the senior World Championship stage.
And Great Britain Speedway team manager Alun Rossiter says the time is right for some of the country’s less-experienced riders to be given the opportunity, based on their current form.
He said: “I felt Kyle deserved an opportunity. He’s having a very good season so far and he jumped at the chance of going to Abensberg.
“It has been a really positive start for a lot of British riders this season and it’s fantastic to see them doing so well, so it wasn’t an easy choice but a huge good luck to the guys involved – we’re all behind them.”
