Can’t see beyond Norris tbh. That said, although popular, he’s not as popular as he should be amongst the British public who tend to be Max Verstappen fanboys. They may vote for someone else or not at all.

My granddaughter and her friends are voting for Chloe Kelly and they are Welsh. It just shows the popularity of girls sport these days, I expect her to finish higher than Luke Littler.

Yep, because money guarantees talent of course😏.

Indeed, it provides opportunity I admit but you still need the ability. Motor racing is an expensive sport.

Tennis is the same but isn’t anywhere near as expensive of course. It’s just got the impression of exclusivity which it shouldn’t.

Don't rule out girl power Gwyn. The only thing stopping Chloe Kelly winning is a split vote with Hannah Hampton in my opinion.

Absolutely correct
I was involved with Speedway years ago
Back then , best equipment , best tuners , biggest sponsorship deals
The likes of Mauger Penhall, Gundersson , Richardson would not have won without but being able to and stay in front on all conditions and all tracks meant they were successful
No good without talent
Racing bikes and cars are extremely complex to ride and drive
Speedway bikes are like sitting a a very fast razor blade which would be beyond any motor cyclist
Same applies to MotoGPs which no ordinary Joe would ever handle
Same with F1 cars
G forces are ridiculous
Well done Lando

Chloe Kelly, to be fair, is a character.

You could see how she would influence kids into getting interested in football. I’m not sure that’s really a part of it, despite the name, but her and Luke Littler have had huge impacts on the popularity of their sports

And it is supposed to be "sports personality" not who has achieved or won the most.

Wonder who makes up the short list. It has gone very woke this year particularly with two representatives from the same sport.
Gone are the days when the list you could vote for was far bigger.

2 winners of the women's Euros who were both in the team of the tournament.
1 winner of the women's rugby world cup and in the the team od the tournament.
F1 World Champion
Completed the career grand slam and pair of an away winning Ryder Cup team
The youngest ever winner of the World Darts Championship.

How is this list woke?
Who would you swap out for who to make it less woke?

As you pointed out Two players from the SAME team just so they could have three women and three men. Just seems they had to have a balanced shortlist. No player from the team that won the Champions league.
