EDINBURGH will hand British league debuts to Australian racer Kye Thomson (pictured) and Lasse Fredriksen of Norway next season.
The two newcomers will be joined by James Sarjeant and William Lawson who are both back from the team which completed last season for the Monarchs, with their 2020 plans now finalised.
Lawson said: “The team looks strong so far especially at the top with Sam (Masters), Richie (Worrall) and Josh (Pickering), but you need to get points all the way through and that's what I'm hoping to being to the team.
“I think I was averaging around five points a match towards the end of last season and that's where I want to pick up from.
“I'm delighted to be back next year, I know I need to make a right good go of it and I'll be better equipped definitely.”
