New Zealand’s only world speedway title contender, Mitch Shirra, leads Alan Graham (left) and Andy Smith in a heat of the Sunbrite Intercontinental final at Bradford. Shirra qualified for the world final at Munich on Saturday. A two-year riding ban for alleged drug offences is unlikely to affect his place in the world event. Shirra is expected to appeal and the ban will be suspended until this is heard.
