Career
[edit]Stewart he won the 2017 Victorian State Under 21 Speedway Championship[2] qualifying for the Australian Championship in which he finished with 15 points after completion of the 4 rounds.
He joined the Redcar Bears for the SGB Championship 2018 season and later that year in November 2018, he won the Jason Lyons Trophy at Mildura's Olympic Park Speedway.[3] He gained his first major trophy win with Redcar when they lifted the Championship Knock-Out Cup in 2019.[4][5]
Two bad events defined his next two seasons, the first was in 2020, when he was unable to make a Premiership appearance after he signed for the Swindon Robins but the season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[6] Then in 2021, when riding for Redcar he was involved in a crash at Birmingham, receiving multiple injuries (broken and dislocated collarbone, broken shoulder blade and rib damage) that ruled him out for the remainder of the season.[7]
