Rospiggarna - PIraterna is estimated to start at 19.45 local time. It will be further delayed.

Jason Doyle is riding btw.

It was mentioned earlier in the thread that the Russian Federation supposedly couldn't afford to bring Emil and both of the Laguta brothers so they had to choose 2 of those 3.

Since Laguta's B-sample was positive he will have to pay fines to his Swedish team Smederna. Smederna can apply to Svemo to replace Laguta but Smederna says that they will wait and see if they finish the season top 6. https://www.ekuriren.se/sport/b-provet-positivt-nu-vantar-forhor-och-boter-for-laguta/ (article may be behind a paywall)

This article claims that Laguta's B-sampe also (as expected) was positive. http://espeedway.pl/news,laguta_zna_juz_wynik_probki_b_na_rozprawe_troche_poczeka,88008,12.html Another artlce about Grigorij's B-sample (might be behind paywall). https://www.ekuriren.se/sport/b-provet-positivt-nu-vantar-forhor-och-boter-for-laguta/ Grigorij keeps claiming to be innocent (well everyone who gets caught do) and says that he had no idea how the substance entered his body. GL will have a hearing in August after which it will be decided for how long he will be suspended.

Well Indianerna won against Dackarna in Målilla with Janwoski on the reserve for Dackarna although Dackarna used R/R for Freddie.

LInus Sundström have been given the wild card for this year's GP in Målilla. Kim Nilsson and Joel Kling are track reserves. http://www.elitspeedway.com/nyheter/e/342/ http://speedwaygp.com/news/article/5896/sunstrom-secures-swedish-wild-card

That is right.

Weather forecasts looks good so that shouldn't be a problem.

IMO there are too many re-runs in general and too uch going back to the pits. Someone falls on lap 3 and positions are fixed - freeze the heat. Unsatisfactory start - going back to the pits = excluded (unless due to tapes or lights malfunction).

This means that Lebedevs is the new leader of SEC. Yes it does but it probably the same kind of politics that is/was in Denmark/Poland.

It is time that speedway took doping seriously and hand out a serious ban.Almost everyone that get caught blames food supplement or something like that. I however doubt the "honest mistake" thing nd it isnt to hard to check what you eat.

Is this the same format? http://www.svemo.se/ImageVaultFiles/id_10692/cf_44/K-rschema_1_20_16.PDF

Heat 15 from Smederna - Indianerna. https://www.facebook.com/eskilstunasmederna/videos/1432562080170609/ Red - Zagar, Yellow - Bjerre, Blue - Michelsen, white Milik.

I agree, fitness, eating properly/regularly and etc is one part of the greater wholeness together with riding skill, bike setup skill, mental strength, good bikes and a good personal team.

Some statistics for Elitserien so far this season Attendance Top 3 average. 1. Dackarna 3382 2. Eskilstuna Smederna 3289 3. Rospiggarna 3271 The rest of the teams are below 2600. Indianerna only have an average of 1600 which likely is well below of what they have to have to make it go round. Elit Vetlanda also have a very poor attendance despite stars like Hampel, Zrmarzlik and Vaculik. http://www.aktuellspeedway.se/sverige/elitserien/publik/ https://ta.svemo.se/Public/Pages/Serie/Audience/AudienceStatistics.aspx?SerieId=992 Dackarna have the high note of 5263 which is the only note of 5000+ which is their only 4000+ note. Smederna are the only team to have have two 4000+. Rider averages top 15: 1. Tai Woffinden Masarna 2,333 2. Jason Doyle Rospiggarna 2,226 3. Piotr Pawlicki Lejonen 2,152 4. Bartosz Zmarzlik Elit Vetlanda 2,089 5. Patryk Dudek Dackarna 2,040 6. Jaroslaw Hampel Elit Vetlanda 2,023 7. Matej Zagar Eskilstuna Smederna 2,022 8. Przemyslaw Pawlicki Masarna 2,000 9.

Linus Sundström Masarna 1,795 15. Maciej Janowski Dackarna 1,783 Smedernas's Andzejs Lebedevs have achieved 2.167 but have only ridden 6 heats while 12 heats is required to get an official average. http://www.svemo.se/sv/Grenar/Speedway/Elitserien2017/Rankinglista/ https://ta.svemo.se/Public/Pages/TeamSections.aspx?Branch=Speedway&Season=2017&Serie=Elitserien&PageType=Sections&pagesize=10&TeamId=738 Also note that Laguta is removed from Smederna's lineup since he is suspended by Svemo (And PZM) until further notice (pending results from the b-test).

Smederna vs. Indianerna heat 9, Zagar and Adzejs Lebedevs shows how team riding is done. https://www.facebook.com/eskilstunasmederna/videos/1431799813580169/

That is a bit strange, Motala is normally a very good track so it is a bit surprising that they failed with it tonight.
