In the A final, Crump was unable to take a podium spot and finished in a disappointing fourth place. “I won my first heat and from there it all went downhill,” said Crump. “I spoke too soon last week thinking that my technical issues from round one had been fixed, but they are still there. We have a lot of work ahead of us to get the problems fixed in time for the next Grand Prix race. I don’t like losing.

Crump is in third place in the World Championship chase. “I have to win races and right now I’m not doing that,” said Crump. “But don’t write me off just yet, there are nine more GP’s to go. People know me as a fighter and not a quitter so I’ll be back.”

Crump uses K&N Engineering products. “The K&N Filters keep the dirt out of the engine,” he said.  "With all the other technical problems we’re having, the one thing we never have to worry about is K&N.”

Round 3 of the 2007 Speedway Grand Prix World Championship takes place in Eskilstuna, Sweden on Saturday May 20th. Eskilstuna is 75 miles west of Stockholm on the Eskilstunaån River.
