I've got mixed feelings about the absence of some of the top Grand Prix stars from British racing.
When I first started supporting speedway as a youngster I was brought up on the likes of Ivan Mauger at Hull and Erik Gundersen at Cradley Heath - they were my heroes.
But going into the 2009 season it seems we will see less Grand Prix riders then ever before.
Whilst I admit it's disappointing, it's simply a sign of the times and I still believe British Speedway has a great opportunity to put down some solid foundations for years to come when club bosses get together at the AGM in Spain later this month.
