Tai Woffinden wins his second Speedway World Championship title in three seasons
The ACU would like to congratulate Tai Woffinden, 25 years of age of Scunthorpe who secured his second World Title in three seasons on Saturday night at the Polish Grand Prix in Torun, despite not making the semi-finals.  The only man that could have stopped Tai, or at least make him wait until the final round in Melbourne was American and now former World Champion – Greg Hancock, but he trailed in last in the first semi-final which meant that Tai could not be caught.

After a dominant season, this now puts Woffinden up with the best alongside such stalwart names as Tony Rickardsson, Niki Pedersen, Jason Crump and of course Greg Hancock and at 25 years of age Woffinden is confident there is more World Titles to come in the future.

Woffinden commented, "The 2013 title just happened, it was hard to put my finger on exactly what it was," he said. "But this year I know everything we've done. We've all worked unbelievably and I've got great people around me. It feels great to get the reward after working so hard all year. It's definitely paid off."
