Some bad news to start this season's news from Slovenian speedway. Both meetings scheduled for this weekend (Pairs cup, Ljubljana 30.3. and National championship round 1, Krsko 31.3.) have been postponed due too bad weather conditions and forecast. The long winter just doesn't want to go away and we had another 15 centimetres of snow this week. Plus, heavy rain is forecast for the next 3 days.

After the final round of national championship yesterday in Krsko here are the final standings of the national championship: COMMON NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP OF SLOVENIA AND CROATIA 1 Matej Žagar SLO 17 18 18 16 = 69 2 Jurica Pavlic HR 17 16 16 18 = 67 3 Aleksander Čonda SLO 13 14 14 13 = 54 4 Matic Voldrih SLO 9 11 12 12 = 44 5 Denis Štojs SLO 10 6 10 10 = 36 6 Maks Gregorič SLO 7 10 8 10 = 35 7 Jernej Pečnik SLO 8 6 11 6 = 31 8 Žiga Radkovič SLO 6 7 9 8 = 30 9 Matic Ivačič SLO 5 6 5 9 = 25 10 Samo Kukovica SLO 11 11 - - = 22 11 Ladislav Vida SLO 5 3 3 3 = 14 12 Dalibor Bot SLO 4 4 2 4 = 14 13 Daniel Gappmaier A - 5 - 7 = 12 14 Renato Cvetko HR 6 - 0 3 = 9 15 Aljoša Remih SLO - - 5 3 = 8 16 Lukas Simon A - 7 - - = 7 17 Patrik Nagy H - - 6 1 = 7 18 Karlo Majnić HR 2 2 3 - = 7 19 Žiga Kovačič SLO - - 3 3 = 6 20 Jan Mesiarik SK 2 - - - = 2 21 Karlo Pigac HR 0 - - - = 0 22 Anton Wannasek A - 0 - - = 0 SLOVENIAN NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP 1 Matej Žagar AMTK Ljubljana 17 18 18 16 = 69 2 Aleksander Čonda ST Lendava 13 14 14 13 = 54 3 Matic Voldrih AMTK Ljubljana 9 11 12 12 = 44 4 Denis Štojs AMD Krško 10 6 10 10 = 36 5 Maks Gregorič AMTK Ljubljana 7 10 8 10 = 35 6 Jernej Pečnik AMTK Ljubljana 8 6 11 6 = 31 7 Žiga Radkovič AMD Krško 6 7 9 8 = 30 8 Matic Ivačič AMD Krško 5 6 5 9 = 25 9 Samo Kukovica AMD Krško 11 11 - - = 22 10 Ladislav Vida ST Lendava 5 3 3 3 = 14 11 Dalibor Bot ST Lendava 4 4 2 4 = 14 12 Aljoša Remih AMD Krško - - 5 3 = 8 13 Žiga Kovačič AMD Krško - - 3 3 = 6 SLOVENIAN JUNIOR CHAMPIONSHIP 1 Matic Ivačič AMD Krško 5 6 5 9 = 25 2 Ladislav Vida ST Lendava 5 3 3 3 = 14 3 Aljoša Remih AMD Krško - - 5 3 = 8 4 Žiga Kovačič AMD Krško - - 3 3 = 6 SLOVENIAN CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP 1 AMTK Ljubljana 33 39 38 38 = 148 * Matej Žagar 17 18 18 16 = 69 * Matic Voldrih 9 11 12 12 = 44 * Maks Gregorič 7 10 8 10 = 35 2 AMD Krško 21 19 24 27 = 91 * Denis Štojs 10 6 10 10 = 36 * Žiga Radkovič 6 7 9 8 = 30 * Matic Ivačič 5 6 5 9 = 25 3 ST Lendava 22 21 19 20 = 82 * Aleksander Čonda 13 14 14 13 = 54 * Ladislav Vida 5 3 3 3 = 14 * Dalibor Bot 4 4 2 4 = 14

And here I start with the 2012 edition of Slovenian speedway news. Main rules and calendar for 2012 season have been discussed and fixed yesterday in Lendava, Slovenia, where the representatives of Slovenia, Croatia, Czech republic, Slovakia and Hungary met. * Senior championship continues with the cooperation of Slovenia and Croatia. A/B group format will again be used and in case there is not enough riders from these two countries, the lineups will be filled with riders from Czech republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Slovenia. * Junior championship continues with the cooperation of Slovenia, Croatia and Hungary (Gyula) and Austria will join this competition next year. The Austrians will stage one meeting (Natschbach) and two Austrian riders will participate in all 6 rounds of the championship * Team cup continues with the cooperation of Slovenia, Croatia, Czech republic and Slovakia.

Hi guys. Here is the link to the live updates site for the FIM SWC Qual. Round 2 in Ljubljana tomorrow. Spread the link around and join us tomorrow at 4pm CET! http://www.facebook.com/notes/speedway-amtk-ljubljana/-live-updates-fim-speedway-world-cup-qualifying-round-2-ljubljana/393031920741608

Here are the official results from yesterday's meeting In Ljubljana. There were some mistakes on the live updates site, for which we apologize. There were many tactical substitutions and also some unclear decisions from the referee, which made it hard to follow the meeting. It was quite an entertaining meeting, with the biggest crowd we've had in Ljubljana in the last 5+ years. US team was a deserved winner with all 4 riders scoring throughout the meeting. The home team was trying its best, using substitions and a joker, but they just weren't good enough. For the third year in a row, Slovenia misses the World Cup by 5 or less points. USA 44 1.
