Speedway dramatic 16-lapper, Ipswich 1984 John Cook vs Phil Crump

Highly dramatic speedway 16-lap race held at Ipswich on 28th June 1984.
Complete race (including the two re-starts) and interviews at the end.

The riders: Preben Eriksen, John Louis, Billy Sanders, John Cook, Phil Crump, Hans Nielsen, Mel Taylor, Jeremy Doncaster.

A classic battle between Crump and Nielsen throughout (which is generally overlooked due to Cook's dominance), and a lovely piece of sportsmanship between Cook and Crump with a handshake at the end.

Commentators: Dave Lanning & Michael Lee

Host: Dickie Davis on BBC's World Of Sport
