Any idea about rules for 2021?

6 man teams like in 2020 or back to 2019 heat/team formula?

Rumours: Freddie Lindgren to Västervik and Tai Woffinden to Smederna. 

https://www.oskarshamns-nytt.se/initierad-kalla-fredrik-lindgren-och-tai-woffinden-kor-i-sverige-2021/

You tell me, is this a theory or a fact: Smederna having won three years in a row (?) now and losing money each year now rumoured to sign the most expensive and boring rider there is?

That they have won three years in a row is an undisputable fact ;) Loosing money? I don't know, possible for 2019 (visually noticeable smaller crowds then previous years).
As for Tai, depends who's paying (for example a sponsors who's adding extra sponsor money) but I can't say that he is one of my favourite riders though and I agree that
isn't particular exciting (but goes for most of the big names in today's speedway). Would liked to have seen Mikkel Michelsen back but he is doing Poland and Denmark.

Good move, finally Sweden will try to promote local youngsters in Elitserien. 

Hopefully GB will follow.

Well so far the rumour was 50 percent false as Västervik's final rider to join the squad is Artem Laguta.
