i am very surprised to see that riders like Dennis Andersson, Simon G, Ludvig L, Kim Nilsson... didn't make the final.

to me it looks (when looing at the video replay) more like NIcholls drifts out after the start towards THJ and thereby causes the crash. When the crash occurs THJ is still keeping his line while Nicholls is further out hen he was at the start line. This is also how i experienced it at the trackside i stood at the same corner as the crash happened just at the entrance of the bend.

tonight the qualification to the Individual Swedish championship is held in Malmö. Lineups and live results: http://www.aktuellspeedway.se/liveupdate/0_1_Live_I-20-16.php?id=44&liveid=44

Daniel Gunnestad who normally rides for Ikaros Smederna, however Team Hultsfred loaned him since they needed an extra rider and Daniel had rode in the meeting between Team Hultsfred and Ikaros Smederna earlier the same day.

Ikaros Smederna took a huge step towards the league victory, in the Division 1 league, by defeating Team Hultsfreds Gymnasium (THG) with 52-44 at G&B arena. Smederna won despite that they only had 6 riders in the lineup. Alexander Edberg was forced to withdraw from the meeting since the U19 Euro Team Cup was postponed from y.day to today. Also Jacek Basinski was supposed to have ridden but i don't know why he didnt ride. To cover for Edberg, Smederna managed to loan Oliver Berntzon who normally rides for Gnistorna/Örnarna. Smederna are 10p ahead of Gnistorna and THG although both of them have 3 meetings more remaining then Smederna have.

Örnarna-masarna had to be aborted after 9 heats because of a very intense rain . The tied score, 27-27 will stand since atleast 9 heats were completed.

two meetings in allsvenskan tonight: Örnarna Masarna: http://www.speedway....NY.asp?Alls2.EC I think this going to be a pretty good meeting although Örnarna will probably be too strong for Masarna in the end. Keep an eye on Örnarna's nr 4 Dennis Andersson a rider in a very good form at the moment. Örnarna: 1.Ronnie Jamrozy PL 7,72 2.Christian Agö SE 5,62 3.Niklas Klingberg SE 7,17 4.Dennis Andersson (F) SE 7,05 5.Mikael Max SE 9,61 6.Robert Pettersson (F) SE 3,43 7.Per-Ola Klasson SE 3,13 8. - - Masarna: 1.Eric Andersson SE 8,41 2.Andreas Bergström SE 4,77 3.Sebastian Aldén (F) SE 8,08 4.Anton Rosén (F) SE 5,15 5.Maksims Bogdanovs LV 9,36 6.Timo Lahti FI 5,03 7.Andreas Messing SE 5,02 8.Andreas Westlund SE 3,61 The other meeting is Griparna vs. Solkatterna http://www.speedway....NY.asp?Alls2.AD and anything else then a crushing home victory will be very surprising. Lineups: Griparna; 1. Kim Nilsson 2. Freddie Eriksson 3. Kenneth Hansen 4. Stefan Ekberg 5. Miroslaw Jablonski 6. John Lindman 7. Andreas Lekander 8. ---- Solkatterna: 1. Jeremia Thelaus 2. Victor Palovaara 3. Magnus Karlsson 4. Anders Mellgren 5. Robin Törnqvist 6. Adrian Bergqvist 7. David Rohlén 8. ---

Smederna took another crushing victory at home when they defated third placed Filbyterna with 64-32. young Norwegian talent Lars Danniel Gunnstad, son of former rider Lars Gunnestad, continues to impresse. He scored 12+2 from 5 heats making him the best scorer in the meeting. Smederna now has won 12 out of 14 meetings. http://www.speedway....tNY.asp?Div1.FB

Jc1, in Sweden its customary to have a longer interval after heat 10 to allow the spectators to get some hotdogs/burgers/coffee/a sandwich etc and/or to go to the toilet, without them having to miss any of the action. I think the heat 10 pause is a good thing. Far from everyone have time to have a good meal between work/school and the speedway since it starts at 19.00. It will also give the riders a time for a short break and some tactics talk from the team manager,

we'll see. First choice is to see it live but i am not surew that i can make it and in that case the stream will have to due.

nope reserves are only allowed to ride in 6 heats. 1-5 riders are allowed to ride in 7 heats; 4 scheduled heats+nomination+R/R+tactical substitute.

Resultat Max500 Open Smedstadion Eskilstuna 20100802 Top 4 1. Freddie Eriksson 14+3 2. Pawel Zmarlik 13+ 2 3. André Hertzberg 12+1 4. Alexander Edberg 9 http://www.ikarossme...ews&newsid=1729

I think that is how it works in some sports that once you entered a (senior?) championship as a citizens of country X you are then not allowed to participate with another nationality. Regarding Holta, he used to ride on a Norwegian license in the GP but at the same time he rode for Poland i SWC.

i disagree. the ref was correct, Gollobs knee touched NKIs back wheel and then TG fell a bit easy.

It is Ole Olsen's track. Source: http://www.speedway....istory&hl=en_US

well basically there's only 3 countries to choose from and neither is particular sun certain? eric i, they'll start over from heat 1,

meeting off, new start tomorrow at 15.00 CET (14.00 uk time).

taken from Danish met office. Also there is currently a meeting going on with the referee...

i dont know, what about the polish league then?

yeah according to swe-commentators, there is currently a light rain over Vojens.

Well i assume this also applies to Ikaros Smederna's and Filbyterna's tracks then since they ride n the Swedish Div 1 (which is the Swedish equivalent of the B.CL.)?

i only saw some of the heats but i do remember Lindbäck going from 4tg to 1st by going around the field on the outside. Holder also went from 3rd to first in the final heat.
