The South East & Eastern teams completed a clean sweep of the 2019 Battle of Britain series with emphatic wins over the North & Scotland teams at Gin Pit today. Heavy rain made for extremely unpleasant conditions, but the Gin Pit circuit drained superbly, with no standing surface water at any part of the day. The visitors won the opening two heats in the Junior match, to take an early 6 points lead. The next five races were all shared, and after heat 9, the scores were North & Scotland 41 South East & Eastern 49. The visitors stepped up a gear, winning five second half races by a maximum 7-3 score, to run out convincing 113-87 winners. Lewis Brinkhoff raced unbeaten for the SE&E team, with their top six riders all scoring heavily. Kielan Burton, Matt Snell and Louis Wright all won one race each for the N&S team. The South East & Eastern team were presented with the Junior Battle of Britain Cup by Cycle Speedway Commission Chair, Mike Hack.
