New Zealand’s most celebrated speedway rider, Ivan Mauger, slides around the outside of the Poles, Grzegorz Dzitowski and Andrezej Huszcza, in a heat of the recent world speedway pairs championship final in Rybnik, Poland. Mauger scored eight points in what will almost certainly be his last world championship appearance. He also had the satisfaction of winning his last world championship race after a keen tussle with Jan Andersson (Sweden). Mauger and his partner, Mitch Shirra, scored a total of 15 points, finishing fourth behind Denmark, England and the United States.
