racers and royals Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 (edited) If nothing unexpected happens, the French league will start again in Europe. According to the published schedule, the Ligue Nationale de Speedway will start on February 28, and the French will know the champion of the country on April 18 at the latest. In 2020, the fight for the French championship also began in February. After the outbreak of the pandemic, however, the games had to be stopped and they did not return until August. If the plans of the French authorities succeed, this season the champion of the country will be able to emerge much faster, because the last round of the Ligue Nationale de Speedway was scheduled for April 18. The title will be defended by Moto Club Réolais La Réole, which suffered only one defeat last season. It is the clash of the Southwestern France team that will kick off the season. The country's champions will travel to Morizès, who finished last in the LNdS last season. The other two teams are MC Lamothe-Landerron and MC Marmande. Schedule of the Ligue Nationale de Speedway: February 28: Morizès Moto Club - Moto Club Réolais La Réole March 7: Moto Club Lamothe-Landerron - Morizès Moto Club Moto Club Lamothe-Landerron - Moto Club Réolais La Réole March 14: Moto Club Lamothe-Landerron - Moto Club Marmande March 20: Moto Club Marmande - Moto Club Lamothe-Landerron March 27: Marmande motorcycle - Moto Club Réolais La Réole Moto Club Marmande - Morizès Moto Club April 4: Moto Club Réolais La Réole - Morizès Moto Club April 11: Morizès Moto Club - Moto Club Lamothe-Landerron Morizès Moto Club - Moto Club Marmande April 18: Moto Club Réolais La Réole - Moto Club Marmande Moto Club Réolais La Réole - Moto Club Lamothe-Landerron Edited March 3, 2021 by racers and royals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never seems to be any info anywhere Snippets of info from the league(ligue Nationale de Speedway) facebook page. Speedway National League Season 2021 is pointing the end of its nose. Opening is fast approaching and the NSL schedule is constantly changing because of the pandemic. Despite this, clubs are working hard to bring in the best riders and paddock rumors are going well about teams for the upcoming season. At the time we write these lines nothing is definitely active but... We're talking about Mathieu and Stéphane Trésarrieu on the same team alongside Dimitri Bergé Racing for the Marmandese team!!! On the side of La Réole we also talk about the Czech driver Josef Franc, he would be the man of experience of this championship. He would come to shoulder Ondrej Smetana the man in the shape of last season. For Morizès, Long Track 2020 World Champion Lukas Fienhage would make his big comeback to the NSL, he will have to be a formidable customer, Chris 'Bomber' Harris would be replacing one more season on the NSL certainly alongside Richie Worrall. Tom Brennan would also make his return, the young rider is feeling with the Lamothe team. David Bellego and Mads Hansen are still negotiating with the clubs. Of course our French hopes will still be part of it. Gaetan Stella-Team GS , Jordan & Enzo Dubernard racing team , Steven Goret and everyone else will do everything they can to bring us as much show as possible on this 2021. edition. Looking forward to May 13th for the opening! Watch out anyway, everything can still change as the pandemic is evolving in Europe.

Cheers for the information Always come through with it Already heard of all these riders, I just wondered who else France have got tbh... There seem to be a good crop of youngsters coming through Gaetan Stella and Steven Goret being the stand outs... Dunno how old the 2 Dubernards are, but if they're young, they look like good prospects also... Good for France Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just assumed he was another of the Tressarieu brothers, one of the lesser known ones... Where did you find all this information on the averages? 1 hour ago, arnieg said: Yes.

Why not? If logistics allow it to happen, why not give it a go... I am sure if nothing else the promotion of every meeting would leave no one on the island in any doubt that the IOW were in 'European competition', which should generate plenty of curious interest...

France heading for a third wave and stricter measures again https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-56450880 In terms of speedway, does that really matter though? It’s clear that no French fans would travel to IOW and from an IOW perspective it didn’t matter if their meeting in France has fans or not. It would only be the riders and management travelling to France and they’re likely to need vaccines or negative swabs anyway, the same as anyone else travelling for business or leisure this summer.

Well I was more thinking of quarantine rules etc, which currently mean some football matches have to be played in other countries. Is it likely that all speedway riders will be vaccinated or get a vaccine passport by May ? Same for the French teams that come to the UK. As I say, at this moment in time it all looks very risky planning when measures could come in overnight which change things radically. Hard enough being certain about national sport, without the complexities of international......saying that though, in normal times I do like the idea Edited March 19, 2021 by iris123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
