Francis Gusts broke a finger a couple of days ago and during his convalescence Vargarna will replace him with Adam Ellis. Vargarna also announces that Mateusz Tonder won't ride more in Sweden this year due to personal reasons so Vargarna will look into replacing him too.

Dackarna - Smederna will start 19.00 local time at the earliest due to rain.

Wednesday's lineup for previously postponed meeting bewteen Rospiggarna - Smederna Rospiggarna 1. Kai Huckenbeck 2. Jakub Jamrog 3. Artem Laguta 4. Victor Palovaara 5. Wiktor Przyjemski 6. Kacper Pludra 7. Dante Johansson Smederna 1. Michael Jepsen Jensen 2. Frederik Jakobsen 3. Kim Nilsson 4. Patryk Wojdylo 5. Vadim Tarasenko 6. Philip Hellström Bängs 7. Joel Andersson

Judging by the current forecasts there won't be any racing tomorrow. Lots of rain expected tomorrow evening at the other tracks as well, especially at Målilla where 17.9 mm rain is expected from 15.00 in the afternoon until midnight.

Vargarna - Rospiggarna have been cancelled due to the forecasted weather. New date is Monday 29 July.

New date for Rospiggarna - Smederna is Wednesday next week, 17/7..

From what I've read (social media) it's a new law requiring all motor vehicles over 25 kg to be insured. Claims are that this would cost €15K/year and bike.

Rospiggarna released a statement today regarding Antonio. It says that the substance found is the medicine for ADHD that Antonio uses and has a TUE for. Antonio is currently suspended during investigation. https://rospiggarna.nu/nyhet/pressrelease-35/ We Will see how this unfolds.

Rospiggarna - Smederna no go because of rain. No new date have been announced yet.

Dante Johansson will be at nr 7 for Rospiggarna tonight and Victor Palovaara is moved to up to nr 5.

It has been confirmed and also that it is about his ADHD-medication and that the substance found doesn't match his TUE. https://speedwayfans.se/antonio-lindback-har-testat-positivt-for-doping/ So we will have to wait and see if it's the medicine or something elsr.

Antonio Lindbäck has been removed from both Rospiggarna's squad and Valsarna's squad. Reason given is personal reasons. Rospiggarna will have to use one of their 0,500 riders as a replacement.

Not Smederna's night so far. Drabik and Nilsson have 5-1 in heat and Drabik crash going out first bend and heat finishes 3-2. Heat 6 Smederna have a secure 4-2 with MJJ with a big lead. MJJ then somehow crash in the middle of last home straight.

Iversen had to stay home for family reasons and is replaced by Legowik.

Smederna replaces Fredrik Jacobsen with Kim Nilsson tonight-

He will be at nr 3 tomorrw instead of Polis.

Sorry, I mean Adrian Cyfer.

Vargarna has signed Hubert Legowik. He replaces Adrian Legowik.

Rospiggarna have signed Mateusz Szczepaniak as replacement for Sebastian Szostak.

He posted a statement that he would take a break from speedway for a while due to personal reasons within the family and that the energy isn't there right now. I don't interpret this as "I am retiring" but rather that there are more important things to focus on within the family which makes speedway a lower priority. https://www.facebook.com/ajracing07/posts/pfbid02CbtxwyZvpFRKNq5bjJck5jSxeHpWH1qfqBZCc11p7CeVRjqK1RMnBP2wm5P9qxZGl

I suspect Kim might have turned it down since he just have had surgery to his elbow (yesterday or today). I think he probably wants to rest until next week's crucial back-to-back meetings between Smederna and Rospiggarna on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Rospiggarna will use RR for Huckenbeck and Vargarna will use RR for Iversen.

Changes for Smederna. Drabik called in sick (R/R will be used) and Kim Nilsson underwent surgery for his injured arm/elbow. Wojdylo who was on his way to England managed to change his plan and will replace Kim. That means that Smederna's line up will look like this: 1. Maksym Drabik, R/R 2. Michael Jepsen Jensen 3. Patryk Wojdylo 4. Frederik Jakobsen 5. Vadim Tarasenko 6. Joel Andersson 7. Philip Hellström Bängs

Piraterna will likely use R/R for Janowski.
