Hazzman Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 It appears the Golden Helmet will have it's qualifiers on the Friday. The Junior Final on the Saturday and the conclusion of the GH on the Sunday. That's according to Speedway Star Travel Club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subedei Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 If the Under 21 final is staged during the Golden Helmet meeting the Poles probably won't run a full programme on the Sunday, leaving the best riders in the world to compete in the Golden Helmet - last year the Golden Helmet suffered as it was up against the Polish play-off meetings.

The Golden Ribbon ( AKA Under 21 Golden Helmet) is on the Friday, 3rd October The World Under 21 Final is on the Saturday, 4th October Following the World Under 21 Final, there will be the first 4 four heats (one for each qualifying group) of the Golden Helmet itself. The remaining 32 heats of the Golden Helmet will then be staged on Sunday 5th October It is normal practice for the first four heats of the Golden Helmet to be staged after the Saturday meeting, normally the Golden Ribbon, or whatever meeting takes place on the Saturday. This year is the 60th Anniversary of the Golden Helmet, and the addition of the World Under 21 Final makes it a three day festival of speedway,or four, if you include the Tomicek Memorial meeting, taking place at Marketa in Prague on Monday 6th October.

The FIM Calendar has the World Under 21 Final on 5th October and so does the GP site. Very confusing! So, is it 4th or 5th October, please?
