No it is about Darcy who again managed to screw up and this time he did not only violate civil laws he also violated FIM & Wadas anti-doping rules. So just like any other athlete who gets caught, Darcy should get a punishment for a doping offence. Normally such punishments are 2 year long. I can't see why Darcy should be treated differently? In Dudek's case there might have been evidence of some sort that indicated that his forbidden substance might have been from something that he ate. However Dudek still got a one year ban from all speedway plus an additional ban from national team (SWC, SGP, SEC & etc). In Ward's case Darcy purposely consumed the banned substances in such quantities that he should have realized that this would set him over the allowed limit.

Iris, IIRC it is already illegal in Italy.

Darcy Ward? Do you know something the rest of us don't know?

David Ruud have decided to retire. http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/elitserien/ruud-lagger-slapskon-pa-hyllan/

Apparently there will be a presconference in Warzaw on Thursday to announce that they are hosting the opening SGP round in 2015.

I've updated the team signings for Allsvenskan and Elitserien.

Smederna announced today that PK have signed for 2015. http://www1.idrottonline.se/SmedernaSpeedwayforening-MotorcykelochSnoskoter

According this article, Darcy have signed a new contract with his Swedish team and the team manager for that teams says that Darcy's lawyers expects Darcy to get a 6-8 month ban. http://mvt.se/sport/speedway/piraterna-nara-ett-dromlag-10338238.aspx

No, the dates for the round have been decided about but neither the dates or the locations have been revealed yet.

You beat me to it DG. Smederna have one more spot to fill which likely will be taken by Peter Karlsson. http://www1.idrottonline.se/SmedernaSpeedwayforening-MotorcykelochSnoskoter/Nyheter/Nyhetsarkiv/IKAROSSMEDERNA2015/ http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/elitserien/pawlicki-nytt-namn-i-eskilstuna/

Chris Holder has signed for another season with Piraterna. http://piraterna.se/default.aspx?NodeId=2814

Smederna have signed Sebastian Aldén as a guest rider. It is also rumoured that Peter "PK" Karlsson, Kenni Larsen , Przemyslaw Pawlicki have signed with Smederna and that Vaclav Milik have been offered a contract. It is not known yet if Mikkel Michelsen will stay with Smederna or not. http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/elitserien/alden-klar-for-ikaros-smederna/

10M € sounds a bit exaggerated? In my city about 1-2 years ago, they changed the two coolant units which are used to freeze the ice at the two rinks at Eskilstuna ice stadium, which has one outdoor ice rink which is about 11340m2 big and one in door icehockey rink which is about 1800m2. I don't remember the exact cost but I doubt it cost 10M €. Maybe 1M € but not 10M € so is it really that much more expensive to do the same in NL?

Smederna will announce their squad tomorrow, however it is already known that Grzegorz Zengota will not ride for Smederna next season. https://twitter.com/ZengiRacing/status/525676064191029248

No and it's not even close of being enough.

Dackarna have signed former Danish and now "Swedish" rider Rasmus Jensen. http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/elitserien/dackarna-varvar-jensen-som-blir-svensk/ There is/was an agreement between the clubs to have three Swedish riders/lineup, however both Rospiggarna and Dackarna have signed contracts with non Swedish riders (Timo Lahti -Rospiggarna, Rasmus Jensen Dackarna) that are going to rider on Swedish licenses. Rasmus Jensen will also ride for Vargarna in allsvenskan. Two other signings for Vargarna are René Bach och Jari Mäkinen. http://www.vargarnaspeedway.se/forare/tre-intressanta-forare-klara-for-vargarna/

Rospiggarna have signed Szymon Wozniak,. http://norrteljetidning.se/sport/1.2705670-polske-juniormastaren-till-rospiggarna
