Scott Nicholls heads back to the Welsh capital for Britain’s biggest indoor motorsport event next Saturday, where he will be in the fanzone on City Hall Lawn from 1pm, signing copies of his brand-new autobiography Sliding Through Life written by Kirkey.
It will come as no surprise that one of most viewed moments in Speedway GP history gets a mention. Nicholls’ dust-up with then World Under-21 champion Sayfutdinov following an ill-tempered battle for third place in heat five now has 16 million views on YouTube and remains a famous moment in both riders’ careers – even if they are now firm friends.
