Haven't watched any of this although I don't think that it was free to view (if you count Eurosport as free?) anyway. I think that's it's pretty tedious and predictable apart from the final which should be worth watching?

Robert Lambert (Team GB): "We knew it was going to be much closer today, and I knew I needed to win that last one. Everything was cool; I made the perfect start and I knew if I was second, we would have a run-off. I was fast, I had speed in the bike, but it didn't work. I was just thinking it was another race because I could have ended up losing everything in my head and messing things up. I know it's the best GB has done in the World Cup, but we had belief we could come and get a medal and even push to win it. I have to take a moment and move forward. Sometimes you need knock-backs to bounce back stronger."
Oliver Allen (Joint GB manager): "This was a fantastic advert for speedway. Anyone who watched this meeting will be fascinated by this sport. It was a really good event. Everything was decided in the last race between three teams. I know we started well, but we had a bad block of gates and we dropped points there. The result is good, our world ranking for the last three years has been good, but when you come so close, it feels like a loss, not a win. Robert Lambert is very disappointed because he was in that last race, but he has to keep in mind it's a collective effort. It's not down to one race; it's how many points you score in the night. I'm proud of him and I'm proud of the team."
