Starting Positions Draw
The Speedway Grand Prix Commission nominated David Howe (as Wild Card), Edward Kennett and Daniel King (both as Track Reserve). This was undertaken at the suggestion of the British event organisers who requested that finishing positions from the 2007 British Championship determine the identity of the wild card and reserves - the highest placed rider in that event (other than the pre-qualified Chris Harris and Scott Nicholls) would be the wild card, the next two would be the track reserves. David Howe finished second to Harris and took the wild card place.

Famous quotes containing the words starting, positions and/or draw:
“what most appals
Is that tiny first shiver,
That stumble, whereby
We know beyond doubt
They have almost run out
And are starting to die.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“... liberal intellectuals ... tend to have a classical theory of politics, in which the state has a monopoly of power; hoping that those in positions of authority may prove to be enlightened men, wielding power justly, they are natural, if cautious, allies of the “establishment.””
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“A garden is like those pernicious machineries we read of, every month, in the newspapers, which catch a man’s coat-skirt or his hand, and draw in his arm, his leg, and his whole body to irresistible destruction.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
