Crump returned to the Winner’s Circle in style by displaying the form that took him to two World Speedway Grand Prix Championships in 2004 and 2006. The
British victory was Crump’s fourth British title and 17th Grand Prix victory. His 22-point haul at the race shot him up the points table to second place overall. He is now within striking distance of series leader Nicki Pedersen.

“I came here on a mission and that was to win the British Grand Prix,” said Crump. “The win also gives me an automatic start in the U.S. $200,000.00 Super Prix. My mission now is to win more GP’s, win back the World Championship this year and take first place in the Super Prix.”
Crump, a 16-time Grand Prix winner, has used K&N Engineering products during his entire 17- year racing career. He uses K&N air filter RU-3710 on all of his motorcycles. “K&N is the best,” he said. “The air filters keep the dirt and debris out of my engines and gives me the additional horsepower I need at every race.”
Crump said he plans to take it one event at a time. The team is currently analyzing its strengths and weaknesses. They have also set down goals for the next event. “I am mentally and physically prepared,” he said. “I will not let my guard down until the job at hand is complete.”
Round six of the 2008 Speedway Grand Prix World Championship Series will take place at Prague, Czech Republic on Saturday August 2.
