Why do the reserves only get 3 heats in Sweden ?     Ghost or R&R will know the answer.

Because this year they changed the format and took out the 2nd reserves race(heat 11) and changed to 2 nominated races at the end- better VFM for the punters. In my opinion it has worked well.As they use a rolling average in Sweden- decent riders end up at reserve for a couple of matches and if they go well can end up with 4/5 rides.

Thanks R&R.     Short change for the reserves but I do like the two nominated races.   Maybe we can introduce in the UK to stop some riders enjoying easy pickings down at 6/7.   And to test the managers too.

Ghosty could you clarify if there is relegation from the Eliteresen in 2018 and promotion from the Allveskan league- it’s not entirely clear on page 1

Elitserien is closed for 2018-2020 seasons. No team will be demoted/promoted by default. If any team, like Lejonen or Masarna, wants
out they have to actively request a transfer to Allsvenskan. In the same way an Allsvenskan team have to apply to be promoted.
