THE drawn-out saga over Darcy Ward’s 10-month ban from speedway could be set for a public conclusion with the irate star promising a statement over the next week.

Poole Pirates asset Ward, 22, took to Twitter to voice his displeasure having been handed his sanction by the Federation Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM) – world motorcycle racing's governing body – five days ago.

 

 


 

Ward received the punishment having failed an alcohol test at the Latvian Grand Prix in August last year.
