DJC Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 FIM Speedway - News - SPEEDWAY GP STARS ON 90 SECONDS FOR 2025 Morris said: “We have listened to what the fans have said with regard to gardening at the start line. Riders previously had two minutes in which to do what they wanted, but we have decided to cut that down to 90 seconds. It’s taking 30 seconds of gardening away before every heat. “TV viewers are usually watching the replays of the heat before when riders are preparing their starting position for the next race. But for fans watching in the stadium, it should feel as if the action is progressing a little bit faster. Changes for changes sake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
