Swedish 2021 Season (info on 1st page with signings, rules and etc).


Recommended Posts

The Swedish government announced today that attendances from 1 July will be allowed to be as much as 3000 per section
for the largest arenas (like football stadiums). However this is in relation to several different criteria such as that each spectator
have to have sufficient space and that spectators on the different sections won't be able to get close to the spectators on the other sections.

I don't know how they will decide for speedway tracks but the largest arenas capacity wise like Eskilstuna and Målilla could be allowed to
have  a larger attendance then the like of Motala, Hallstavik and Avesta. We'll see.

Today's Allsvenskan meeting between Team Rapid and Griparna has been aborted. Kim Nilsson crashed in heat 1 and suffered neck injuries of unknown extent. Meeting was then aborted due "track condition" (according to results page). 

Kim Nilsson has reported no fractures in his neck which was where he had most pain- presumably will be out for a while.

Only 2 Swedes in top 20 (Aspgren 2nd and Thorssell 11th) - Sweden's decline is becoming increasingly evident. Is there anyone other than Hellstrom-Bangs that really looks like a top class prospect?

The decline has been obvious for at least 10 years and while everyone is aware of it, not many are interested in doing anything about it.

As for anyone else then PHB the answer is no.

Favourites must be Jansson and Zetterstrom. I know Jansson Is the great grandson of World finalist Joel, is Manfred the son of Magnus?

Anton is generation 4 in the Jansson speedway family; Joel->Bo->Jimmy->Anton. Manfred is not related to Magnus in any way.
Magnus' son Kevin is a football goalie in division 1. Anton and Manfred are dominating the Swedish Youth series this year. 500 cc
is totally different thing but for sure they are talented. IIRC the plan for Anton was to combine 85 cc with 250 cc this season but
I don't think he has been doing any 250 cc racing so far this season.
