OK, no probs. Just that he has to use Svemo license everywhere he rides. Its the FIM rule, you get your license from one FMN for a season.

But what about Rsasmus Jensen then? Who rode in the Danish SGP/SEC qualification event presumably on a DK license, but he also intends to use a Swedish license for Elitserien.

Is he the one who presumably changed from Danish nationality to Swedish after not getting rides earlier for DK? Dual citizenship changes things, like with Kylmäkorpi. He's allowed to by FIM rules to ride for two countries (FI and SE) in one season. One country in individuals and the other in team events.

 

Timo Lahti is a citizen of Finland riding on Svemo license. Because of his Svemo license SML cant nominate him for the quali's. And because he's a Finnish citizen, Svemo's own rules dont allow him to get nominations.

I doubt that Rasmus have become a Swedish citizen already, since he would have had to live here since he was 16 years old (2009, 5 years of residency required).

So I think he still is just a Danish rider with a Swedish license.

PART of an interview with Kai Laukkanen, part of the promoting team in Tampere..

 

“The straights are a bit wider and there are more racing lines coming into the corners. It’ll be a lot more race-able than before. We’re really looking forward to seeing a lot more racing than last year. Last season wasn’t bad, but the track was a bit narrow at some points.

“The banking is a little bit different now. The track is the same length. We’ve moved the fence outwards. There’s a football field and drainage in the middle of the track, so we can’t really make it much shorter. We’ve made it wider from the outside.

“But it looks a lot different. We had a test day a few weeks ago and Timo Lahti was racing. We had a test meeting on May 2 for the Finnish riders and some of the Swedes. The track is good for racing now.”

Sort of puts into question the whole interview and his opinion just with those few words

This guy is just the sort of talent BSI needs to bring on board.

He knows the outcome of the test meeting a week in advance!

Seems Jensen is listed without a nationality at the moment in Dackarnas squad. No idea why.

Now lets make it quite clear to all riders, officials and anyone who is running or broadcasting this event the following song should played at the beginning of the meeting on the riders parade. And most certainly should be adhered to for the whole and rest of the meeting.

No if's but's or maybe's no concessions at all.
