Tai Woffinden Extends Points Lead With Swedish Win

Posted:

World champion Tai Woffinden is determined to take his FIM Speedway Grand Prix winning streak indoors in Copenhagen and Cardiff after completing back-to-back victories with Swedish SGP gold in Malilla on Saturday night.

The Team Great Britain skipper powered past World Championship rival Greg Hancock in the final to top the box for the second time in two weeks following his Czech Republic SGP triumph in Prague on May 31. They were joined on the podium by their Monster Energy stable mate Chris Holder and Polish racer Jaroslaw Hampel, who was fourth.

Woffinden, who chases his second straight British Championship at Wolverhampton on Monday, leads the SGP standings by a point on 63 ‰ÛÒ just one ahead of Hancock, who is breathing down his neck on 62.

The Californian has won at both the next two venues ‰ÛÒ PARKEN in Copenhagen, home of the Danish SGP on June 28, and Cardiff‰Ûªs Millennium Stadium, stage for the British SGP on July 12.

So Woffy is determined to take his red-hot form into two of the SGP season‰Ûªs biggest events as he aims to take charge at the top.

‰ÛÏI‰Ûªve had a bad track record on the indoor ones, but hopefully I‰Ûªm going to set that straight." Woffinden said, "I‰Ûªm going to work very hard until the end. I‰Ûªm going to train my backside off to get ready and really push on. Anyone can win it ‰ÛÒ it‰Ûªs one of those seasons. It‰Ûªs going to be interesting for everyone.

‰ÛÏI struggled a little bit with setup at the start of the night, but as each race went on, I got faster and faster. I‰Ûªm pumped to get the win and it was an all-Monster podium ‰ÛÒ that‰Ûªs crazy. We‰Ûªll have to see how many more we can get.‰Û
