After months of negotiations, an agreement was struck which gave VRX control of the national team set-up,having worked tirelessly for months to put together a team of people who will work towards the ultimate goal of re-establishing the Great Britain Team as a Speedway powerhouse.

The mission is simple; to make Great Britain the most successful and most professional National Speedway team on the planet. From sports science experts, rider coaches, tactical analysts and branding specialists, the Great Britain Speedway Team consists of people that are not only experts in their chosen field but also people who are passionate about elevating GB to the very top.
