Iversen showed very little pre-injury this season that he is certain for a wild card and Holder should only get one if he finish ahead of Vaculik. Vaculik have been much more consistent then Holder this season and should be higher in the pecking order for a wild card hand out. Vaculik have also been better then Holder in the leagues. Vaculik is 11th (2.038) in the Polish average list and 18th (1.729) in Sweden. Holder have 1.773 (25th) in Poland and 1.685 (23rd). Something that happened 5 years ago is not a good metric for next season. If Holder wants to be a SGP-rider for 2019 then he should do the qualifiers in 2018 for the 2019 series. If they really need a second Australian give the wild card to Fricke. If Kildemand continues to do well give the Danish wild card to him. Kildemand have two more points then NKI and both have missed three GP:s. Then one to the winner of SEC and the final one to 9th placed rider.

Team line ups have been announced for leg 2 of the final (first post have been updated) http://www.aktuellspeedway.se/sverige/elitserien/uppstallningar-elitserien-final-2/

Dackarna have chose not to renew their team manager's contract. http://www.aktuellspeedway.se/sverige/elitserien/karlsson-far-lamna-dackarna/

Bring it on I say!

Västervik will decide tonight if they want to accept the promotion. https://www.svt.se/nyheter/lokalt/smaland/vastervik-till-elitserien-avgors-ikvall

Peter PK Karlsson have been riding 500cc bikes since 1985 but his career have now come to an end. Peter have decided to retire and Piraterna's away meeting against Dackarna in Målilla on August 22nd is his last meeting. http://www.dagensvimmerby.se/sport/speedway/e/15143/efter-30-sm-finaler-nu-lagger-ikonen-slapskon-pa-hyllan/

Yeah f-s-p and Dave Goddard could perhaps be the new commentary dream team.

Teams are up for Tuesday http://eskilstunasmederna.se/laguppstallningar-sm-final-1/ Smederna will use R/R for Karpov despite that he is neither injured or ill. I think it looks really bad to be honest.

Surprisingly week scores from the home riders, T. Woffinden 3 2 3 0 1 9 Sz. Woźniak 1 0 2* 3 0 6+1 M. Janowski 3 1* 2 1 0 7+1 A. Lebiediew 1 2 1* 4+1 V. Milík 0 1 2* 0 3+1 D. Dróżdż 2* 0 2 4+1 Drabik the only one that delivered with his 12p from 5 heats.

I told you.

I think Leszno will take this.

Janowski seems to have lost his Mojo completely. 84-84 with two heats to go....

I agree with SS and SCB to some extent, some good races but also many from-the-gate-races.

Lets hope that last weeks referee decision won't be decisive.

Wroclaw counter attacks with two straight 5-1:s.

Great riding by Emil. Emil heard you.

nSport+ HD.

The difference between Holder , Zagar and Iversen vs. Lebedevs & Milik is that he latter two probably wouldn't do better the first season but that they have plenty of room for improvement. As for Zagar it isn't just two good gp:s but he have been very good in the Swedish "play offs" as well. Apparently he have found something that works for him. His Elitserien "play offs" (don't like word for speedway's post season cup) scores: Smederna - Dackarna 5 (1 0 2 2) (vs. Lindgren, Dudek, Janowski) Dackarna - Smederna 15 (3 3 3 3 3) (vs. Lindgren, Dudek, Janowski) Masarna - Smederna 17 (3 3 2 3 3 3) (vs. Woffinde, Lindbäck, Sundström, Pz Pawlicki) Smederna - Masarna 16 (3 3 1 3 3 3) (vs. Woffinde, Lindbäck, Sundström, Pz Pawlicki) + two straight GP wins.

Indianerna announced that they have "signed" Simon Gustafsson as head of marketing/sponsor sales.

I know of those but it would be still another 200SEK in travel costs (direct bus) so it would be almost 300 SEK (27 GBP).

Well you can be a student even if you are 30+

I was considering going but I am a student and I've spent almost £60 the past couple of weeks on seeing Smederna during their post season success (they've reached the finals) and there is one more meeting remaining (the final) so I kinda spend the money on that instead of the GP.

Very unlikely. Both because Smederna cannot afford it and because the car park capacity is too small. There is a gravel parking on the backside of the stadium and there is only a small gravel road leading to it. There is no where for buses to park and etc. Allot of work would be need to bring the road/parking infrastructure up the required level. The actual stadium itself has a very high standard though.

Jonsson got a hit over the throat and had breathing problems.. He waa taken to hospital but I don't have more info then that at the moment.
