All except Lambert.

Quick reminder of Piraterna - Smederna tonight.

Changes for Smederna tonight, MJJ out Wojdylo in.

Teams for Wednesday https://speedwayfans.se/piraterna-moter-smederna-i-motala-sa-staller-lagen-upp/

Latest info is that Huckenbeck will ride for Rospiggarna tomorrow.

Västervik will utilize RR for Woffinden.

Except Lambert and Joel nothing positive to say from Smederna - Dackarna. Rubbish attendence (2800), Rubbish track and rubbish team perfomance.

Great start or not. Dackarna definitely faster from the gate so far.

Kim Nilsson is out for Rospiggarna. Palovaara at nr 5 snd Bock at nr 7.

Some changes for Västervik: 1. Jack Holder is written out from the squad. 2. Bellago replaces Holder in the squad. 3. Bellago replaces Fredrik Lindgren tonight. https://speedwayfans.se/vastervik-forandrar-igen-gp-tvaan-skrivs-ut/

No Fredrik Lindgren for Västervik. Not known yet if RR or replacing rider.

There is also a meeting tomorrow, Lejonen - Indianerna, which was postponed a few weeks ago due to rain.

Claims that ticket sales are up 15-20 percent (so far) compared to last year. Their goal is an attendence of 8000. https://m.dagensvimmerby.se/sport/speedway/e/140592/positiv-kansla-infor-sommarens-gp-okat-15-20-procent

Kumla is a good track, but is a bit lackning when it comes facilities. IMO Västervik would be a better choice. However Sweden cannot support two gp, especially not given the close proximity between Västervik and Målilla.

Västervik is a really good track and also a nice summer town on the southern Swedish east coast.

Maybe ESS play, but not SVT

Apparently Pawlicki didn't show up after giving the team management a very short notice that he wouldn't show up. Pawlicki claims personal reasons for not showing up.

Qualifications Semi final at Esbjerg to the Danish final had to be cancelled and since DMU couldn't find a new date before the final they have decided that the final will be the seeded riders + top 5 from the quarter final at Glumsø. This makes the following start list for the final: • Rasmus Jensen • Kenneth Bjerre • Anders Thomsen • Leon Madsen • Mikkel Michelsen • Niels Kristian Iversen • Andreas Lyager • Michael Jepsen Jensen • Frederik Jakobsen • Rene Bach • Jonas Jeppesen • Peter Kildemand • Benjamin Basso • Nicolai Klindt • Patrick Hansen • Mads Hansen ------------------ Reserver: • Jonas Seifert • Kenneth Kruse Hansen https://www.facebook.com/dmudanskspeedway/posts/pfbid037rMZAte3yzAkWCqe8218Mkcw8x1Ve1uMyQrp2z1nvZqiBUAbhECP5V8DwYDeUnLBl

Some really unexpected results today, Lejonen and Piraterna both loosing at home. For sure Piraternas missed Pawlicki but 16p loss at home is still a little too much. Lejonen looked very weak against Smederna and loosing by 20p. Västervik victory was expected but still sad so see such scores. I hope that Västervik have fixed salary rather then paid by points.

Results from the Swedish final qualification https://www.svemo.se/nyheter/klara-forare-till-sm-finalen 1. Gustav Grahn, Kumla MSK 2. Jonathan Ejnermark, SMK Motala SK 3.

Revised lineup is Daniel Henderson at nr 6 for Dackarna.

Jepsen Jensen has announced that he will ride for Gdansk today.

Västervik uses their second transfer card to replace David Bellego with Mikkel Michelsen.
