They didn't. The discussions elsewhere are NONSENSE.

I don't understand this nonsense that three teams prevented the move. The move couldn't happen, because Bewley already is signed to race in Poland and Sweden. Poland has not changed any rules, so it was never going to happen.

Bewley could not have signed for Belle Vue because despite what one poster claimed a few hours ago, the rules in Poland have not changed. He could only come to Belle Vue if he gave up Sweden or Poland.

Can you link to somewhere that shows officially that Poland removed this restriction?

There have already been ominous noises from Marcin Majewski, head of speedway presenting at Canal+ in Poland, who said yesterday that, in his opinion, Russians should not be allowed to participate in Polish leagues this season.

This article published last night in the NL Times gives details of the loosening of restrictions in the Netherlands over the coming weeks: https://nltimes.nl/2022/02/15/full-list-coronavirus-restrictions-changes-february-2022

Information about Nikita Toloknov, again from Anton Terebenin: "Nikita has a shattered foot. The doctors operated and did everything they could to save it. Nikita is now in a regular ward. It will take a very long time to recover."

Information about Ivan Khuzhin, injured yesterday, directly from Anton Terebenin who supplied the live links on both days: "Vanya Khuzhin was seriously injured in the race yesterday. He's in intensive care now.... He had an operation. The operation ended successfully. Vanya lost a lot of blood. He remains in the ICU for the time being. Unconscious. Now everything depends on him... We believe in you, Vanya! You're strong, get well soon, our friend!"

Date has been changed to Friday 25th March at 1700 Polish time, and the first four riders announced are: Patryk Dudek, Bartosz Zmarzlik, Dominik Kubera and Szymon Woźniak.

Anton has posted to say he's not able to stream this weekend, so it'll be an Ufa based stream only. Anton has to do repairs to his car ahead of meetings coming up over the next few weeks.

Hi Jarekosc, I live in Scotland but I'm a big Leszno fan - see my car plate in the picture - and I'll be driving over to Leszno at Easter for their first meeting v Gorzów.

I also believe that despite a lot of negative commenting from within Poland, TVP will up their game for this, especially if it's being sold on to other nations.

Neither can I. I don't remember anything being announced about it.

Correct Bavarian, which is also where the training video I posted above is from. Nice looking circuit.

Also found the image below, showing Swedish fixtures - but apparently these were to be confirmed.
