Congratulations to all at Ipswich speedway. It has been a long time coming and JL will be looking down with a big smile. Two great feats for Suffolk in one week.

19 points needed from 6 races for Ipswich to win

Ipswich are not convincing, the Lions are on this and unless the Witches get it together this is going away from them. Not totally convinced that the Witches can do this.

Most on here care but it is probably those in charge who have lost touch with what supporters of this particular two wheeled sport want. SON was in the most part boring except for the underdogs in Germany taking a title. It seems that speedway has lost its way at international level and has become very insular from a local league level. It will take something or someone special to pull the sport together at the highest level and as long as the riders and not not the authorities dictate when and how meetings take place and what conditions it is on a downward trajectory. Someone needs to get a grip particularly in the UK as the current set up is failing all genuine supporters.

Unfortunately that is it until 2026. Thanks to all the riders, clubs, officials, broadcasters, forum members, particularly Racers & Royals and Stewmac and all in involved in the Polish league racing, it has been great watching all the meetings here in the UK and hopefully many will get the opportunity to turn up at tracks in Poland next year to experience all that is great about the sport of Speedway.

All over well done Stal.

Tom is a very lucky man after that one.

That was a bit unfortunate.

Another very good ride by Tom. Keeping the meeting interesting.

Hopefully Tom rides like that for Ipswich this week. Good riding.

Thanks. Missed that one but now on it.

Held at the wrong time in the season in the wrong country. It probably does have a place at a certain level but not with the mix of riders on show tonight. GP participants should be excluded to measure the state of the up and coming riders and certainly not hold these events in the likes of Poland if you want to generate interest. Go back to the 70’s and 80’s and the stadia in the UK were packed for the likes of the Daily Mirror sponsored events because of the novelty value in seeing overseas riders grace domestic tracks in the UK. Yes the sport has moved on but given where the sport is it needs to generate interest outside the traditional nations and take it to another potential fan base. One can only hope.

Does anyone know who is in what position. Am I missing something?

This is a PR disaster for the series and the broadcaster. Oh well always the league racing to look forward to in 2026.

Well done to Germany. Stick by your values and it will come good. She may not have ridden for her country but was ready to compete if called upon. Team GB could learn a thing or two but only when Vatcher is kicked into touch. That waste of space of an individual needs to be eliminated from the sport. How he holds any position in the sport beggars belief. Needs replacing asap. Any former riders up for it.
