EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the thrilling world of speedway racing in the 1970s. The image captures a momentous gathering of legendary Speedway Riders before a highly anticipated League match at Wimbledon Stadium in London on April 17th, 1975. Standing proudly from left to right are some of the sport's most iconic figures. Ivan Mauger, an astonishing four-time World Champion, exudes confidence as he prepares for another adrenaline-fueled race. Beside him stands Barry Briggs, also a four-time World Champion, his steely gaze revealing his determination to conquer the track once again. Sharing the dressing room with these illustrious champions is Scott Autrey from Exeter and Tommy Jansson representing Wimbledon. Their presence adds an extra layer of excitement and anticipation to this already electric atmosphere. The riders' attire reflects both their professionalism and ruggedness; clad in their racing gear, they radiate power and resilience. Yet beneath those tough exteriors lies vulnerability - glimpses of their underwear peeking through remind us that even heroes have moments of vulnerability. This photograph perfectly encapsulates not only the spirit of competition but also camaraderie among these remarkable athletes. It serves as a timeless reminder of an era when speedway racing was at its zenith – a testament to their indomitable spirit that continues to inspire generations today. Charlie Ley's expertly captured image allows us to relive this historic moment in motorsport history – forever preserving it within our memories
