GP dream over for Adams 

Robins skipper furious over referee's controversial decision

 

Swindon Speedway star Leigh Adams was left fuming as an unbelievable decision by referee Marek Wojaczek saw him robbed of a place in the British GP semi-final.

 

In hot pursuit: Adams closes in on meeting winner Jason Crump, in front of a 45,000-strong crowd at the Millenium Stadium Les Aubrey

 

The incident occured during the first corner of the fifth heat on Saturday, as Danish competitor Nicki Pedersen clipped the back of Adams - and unbelievably, Adams was shown the exclusion light.

 

Despite the set-back, the Aussie star collected seven points from his four programmed rides.

 

Disappointing: Adams excluded after controversial decision Les Aubrey

 

Pederson, who still leads the championship table by 10 points, was later shown the exclusion light after an almost identical clash.

 

Aussie Jason Crump went on to win the meeting, and is set to stir up a storm at the semi-finals.
