Isn´t Kim Nilsson supposed to be the second reserve or is the info on Wikipedia not up to date? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Speedway_Grand_Prix

Fun! When is the last time a new speedway track was built in Sweden?

Interview with Martin Haarahiltunen from SVT for those of you who are interested. https://www.svt.se/sport/isracing/spikat-for-vm-haarahiltunen-laddar-for-internationella-comebacken

Out of curiousity does anybody know what happened to the track in Portugal that existed atleast somewere in the 2000s. Remember seeing on some old polish result site about some meeting being arranged there. It was also mentioned in a shortlived speedway magazine in Sweden somewere around 2003-2005.

Good point especially when guys competeting for lesser teams which could have caused more problems for the teams above either are missing (Zagar and Smolinski) or aren´t as good as they used to be (imo Milik and Lebedevs are a quite bit from their best form from a couple of years ago).

Atleast in my book a quite interesting/fun piece of news. In 2022 the Individual Swedish Championship final will be part of what in Sweden is known as "SM-Veckan" i Linköping. Basically SM-veckan is a arrangement during which several (generally) smaller sports have their Nation Championship during a week in a specific city, all broadcasted on Swedish Public Service. https://www.svt.se/sport/sm-veckan/speedway-tar-plats-i-sm-veckan-2022

And a link to a "livescore" for the event.http://online.speedwaylive.eu/volne-zavody/pardubice/zlata-prilba/2020-10-04/quarterfinal.html Does anybody know if the event will be geoblocked?

Seems to be a fare list if your looking on it from a Swedish perspective. We have both the rider who have benefited most from the new system and the rider which have suffered the most from the new system.

Wouldnt the following be reasonable Croatia Poland Sweden Denmark GB Russia Czech Republic Australia Germany Italty Slovakia Slovenia Ukraine France Latvia Finland My country nr 10-16 if I would guess based on which countries that have rider(s) with atleast a (slim) theoretical chance of qualifiying for the SGP and the info provided above. Tbh with country 10-16 we would probably cover most countries were their is atleast one decent rider (or better)

Attendance was 1237 according to Swedish Public Service Radio-channel SR: https://sverigesradio.se/sida/artikel.aspx?programid=110&artikel=7382844

Wasnt the track in Vojens built with purpose in that specific area since the area is an industrail area and not an area filled with residential houses. Would seem to be a good match, with a loud sport in a "loud" industrial area och not beside residential houses.

Nice start for Wright!

Appears as Bellego won´t race in Vojens. Jurica Pavlic will step in instead. https://www.espeedway.pl/news,tauron_sec_bellego_przegral_z_kontuzja_zastapi_go_pavlic,94805,286.html

Is their a chance that their will be a stream?

Not a liveupdate but something atleast. https://www.facebook.com/holstedspeedway/?hc_ref=ARQs2JXfMFSqYMaon6B3Gk1mwFS_HdlbCocFXL0_Jj3NpJmHwOj5fhXPZKQy7aprzZA&fref=nf&__xts__[0]=68.ARA65MLq97LK5a1GN8gxRpW1dQW4BaFe7zQkahP1OUGWYNptXdLu8bQvejfxZmtjITNvDGzNFUMnGwKvMkk3JTSa-syII7tzgqLmpsMVz6cVikJJlRmVxDsCYOyQrhYmaMwqPtEhZfHyP8bugT3PyphnTWErbUGk7BTV73oVTgU1i-fZeW7h3qzcBlf4heGliiYlt_hxBG0K6EN09C1JB6VwoLXc7uE5THeZWNfOEju2ptffNB5Dtkf3NCF63XEWAicFu75CQumlFdA2g0igOM6yBlJQ78DbqMNTa50tkmhMpmjotBohoDgqUz2UCPUaUHlEataWgo4y6hCOIOjlTsQkDw&__tn__=kC-R

For those of you who are interested here is a list originally put together by the Swedish Public Service channel SVT with the average attendance for the 2018 season. https://www.elitspeedway.com/artikel/sjxsaju0w-21mi1/publikstodet-okar-i-ess-se-hela-listan-har. The orginal list you can find here: https://www.svt.se/sport/artikel/publikbarometern With an average of 4841 Smederna has the 21st highest average attendance in Sweden amongts all professional leagues and the highest average outside Allsvenskan (football) and SHL (icehockey).

And out of pure curiousity which are those events? But quite interesting with the possibility of Pedersen riding in the Long Track World Championship (that´s if he starts out with Long Track and gets a wildcard/manage to qualify). When was the last time a speedway rider with his resumé competed more regularly in the LT World Championship (or Long Track in general)? If I remember correctly Jason Crump rode in the New Zeeland Long Track Grand Prix for like 15 years ago but I think that was more of a sporadic thing.

Doesnt they take out every riders two best results from the semifinal round and use that as the ground for which riders goes to the a- and b-final? Since then Miliks 7 (5+2) beats Nickis 6 (3+3)?

Ok, thanks for the answer. Got a VPN so watching now.

The stream seems to be goeblocked this year. Any suggestions?

Using the tread for last years edition I have hopefully managed to find the sites both for livescores and livestreaming: Livesvore: http://online.speedwaylive.eu/volne-zavody/pardubice/zlata-prilba/2018-09-30/qualification.html Streaming: https://www.ceskatelevize.cz/tv-program/ Hopefully the stream will like the last few years be open to us who doesnt live in the Czech Republic. And here is the starting field for mondays Lubos Tomicek Memorial in Prague: https://www.speedway-prague.cz/startovni-listine-na-mlt-chybi-uz-jen-dve-jmena/

Is Billy Hamill still competing back in the States? If he is he´s going to be on that list. Rune Holta perhaps also could be on that list? In 1989 he turned 16 and perhaps then took part in some official competition in Norway? And also is anyone from the older Hungarian team still active? I'm thinking of guys like Z Adorjan and S Tihanyi who both are born in the 1960s and competed at an international level until atleast a couple of years ago. Also Norbert Magosi could be on this list. Atleast the first two competed at the international stage for a long time.

And Hallstavik got a new deal for 2 more years. https://www.svt.se/sport/motorsport/vm-tavling-stannar-i-malilla

If two or more men finish on the same point for the (two) last place(s) to next years series what happends then? Some form of "playoff"?
