Bavarian

Does anybody know which seven nations will take part in the SON2 on Friday?

On Friday and Saturday of this week, the second edition of the FIM Women's Speedway Academy was held at the National Speedway Stadium in Manchester. https://www.fim-moto.com/en/news/news-detail/article/fast-females-take-centre-stage-at-atpi-fim-womens-speedway-academy

Mine has turned up right on time on Saturday morning here in Bavaria.

Was anybody there? how was it?

But it does make commercial sense, and that is important, too. Anyway, Leszno are much improved now that their injury crisis is behind them. I would not discout them, although Wroclaw of course are the big favorites in this tie.

No, because it makes commercial sense, and it actually works quite good as it is, with six teams contesting the first round to extend the playoffs and create another six meetings for tv !

I never understood why many regarded the British final mainly just as a qualifying round of the World championship. It is first and foremost the final of the British Championship, in itself a worthy title to aim for.

Sammy Halbert of the USA is an interesting name in the line-up for Belle Vue on Saturday.

The first eight heats took just 35 minutes to complet under threatening skies. Very good racetrack, and very competitive match so far. An upset on the cards ?

Tonight is Lukas Fienhage's debut in the Ekstraliga. By the way, Fienhage has been (accidentally) left out of the German SWC squad by our new team managers Dörner and Bartz. Weird story how they messed this up!

Just found out the commentary can be activated by clicking on teh icon bottom right - Swedish, Polish, or Engliash. It is there.

without commentary this is indeed a bit of a let down and rather boring to watch.

yes, there seems to be no commentary

Are there any online streams of the Ostrow v Landshut match ?

Sixteen year old Mario Häusl, who is half German and half a Seychelles-Islander, has been signed by Landshut last week and makes his Polish League debut today.

Last test for the Poles before the World Cup

We don't have a Ladies Championship here in Germany, but we do have a number of girls racing in the 500cc speedway division. And two or three of them are really fast. Next Saturday two of them, Hannah Grunwald and Paddy Erhart, ride in the German Under-21 championship final, and I would not be surprised to see one or both finish among the front runners. Hannah even features on the advertising poster for this meeting (see below).
