Ghostwalker Posted May 6, 2018 Report Share Posted May 6, 2018 (edited) The spring is here and so is the speedway season. The teams have been announced (that always happens at 21.00 CET on Sundays (two days before the meeting)). The big difference this season is that the heat schedule have been changed. The second reserve heat have been scrapped and replaced by an extra nomination heat. This means that the remaining three regular heats have been re-numbered to 11,12, 13 instead of 12,13,14. Someone came up with the not so brilliant idea to adopt the British style with gate draw. The new heat schedule looks like this: http://www.svemo.se/ImageVaultFiles/id_14025/cf_44/K-rschema_2-15.PDF There is also no televised meetings in Sweden this year (but still shown on tv in the UK and Poland). It will be live on speedwayplay.com only in Sweden. I don't know if this is available outside Sweden. Meetings always starts at 19.00 CESTLineups:Eskilstuna Smederna - Dackarna Eskilstuna Smederna Fredrik Lindgren Michael Jepsen Jensen (K) Mikkel Michelsen Andzejs Lebedevs Niels Kristian Iversen Krzysztof Buczkowski Alexander Woentin // Pontus Aspgren was initially intended for #2 but he broke a collarbone in his Polish league meeting today and will be absent for a couple of weeks I would think.Dackarna Greg Hancock Hans Andersen Patryk Dudek Oliver Berntzon Maciej Janowski (K) Pawel Przedpelski Joel Kling Västervik - Indianerna #tv-meeting.

The first transfer window opens on 30 May and closes on 7 June which means that Lejonen have to wait until then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As with Polish Speedway I do not even care if is not live, good to see different tracks and some different riders. Well done FreeSports. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about minimum number of rides? Used to be 3 for reserves and no minimum for riders with umbers 1-5. Still the same or something changed?
