Just caught up and watched Ostrow v Gorzow- what a cracking racetrack Ostrow is. Despite the gulf in class between the teams there were some excellent races i thought.

Absolutely agree. Big, wide, and plenty lines. It's one of my favourites.

Artem Laguta is applying for Polish citizenship similar to what Rune Holta did

Probably more like what Emil Sayfutdinov did - who has got himself a Polish passport but is still representing Russia. An EU Passport makes traveling so much easier for the Russian riders.

That`s not what Sportowefakty said(could be untrue) google translation.

". The world champion from Russia is applying for Polish citizenship. Artem Łaguta will be the second Rune Holta?
Artiom Łaguta started applying for Polish citizenship. Speedway rider of the Russian team, participant in the Grand Prix cycle, apparently very heavily considers races with an eagle on his chest. If he decided to do so, we would have four Poles in GP 2020.

This year, Artiom Łaguta, Emil Sajfutdinow, won the Speedway of Nations final against the Poles. In a year Łaguta may ride with an eagle on his chest and help us overcome Russian hegemony in SoN. Speedway participant competing in MRGARDEN GKM Grudziądz is applying for Polish citizenship.
We do not know at what stage the Lagag case is. We know, however, that the player has been living in Poland for a long time (exactly in Bydgoszcz), has a company here, pays taxes, and speaks our language very well. It seems that Artiom has a really good chance. Another thing is that, as a warning, it is worth quoting the example of German Kevin Woelbert. Some time ago he also applied for citizenship. He referred to Polish roots. He did not get the Polish passport."

Some problems in Poland about what happens to Div 2 next season. Bydgoszcz have been promoted to Nice Polska(which is back to 8 teams) and Wanda Krakow are in big trouble and not likely to be around in 2020. This leaves just 5 teams and everyone is hoping that Rzeszow can return with maybe German team Wittstock joining to provide a proper league competition.

Some stats issued by the Extraleague- Google translation

Over 48 million video plays in media cooperation with WP Sportowe Fakty, 12 million TV viewership of all events related to PGE Ekstraliga in nSport + and ELEVEN SPORTS, as well as the aggregate attendance at stadiums amounting to almost 700 thousand. viewers. These are PGE Ekstraliga records from the recently completed season 2019.

Although before the season there was a lot of voices that playing matches on Friday dates, and above all TV broadcasts on two channels from all 64 matches, will not cause development, it turned out that the best speedway league in the world flourished and reached a very wide spectrum of fans.

On nSport + and ELEVEN SPORTS TV, not only LIVE broadcasts from matches were watched, but also other programs preceding the league queues and summaries. Together, this gave an impressive result to over 12,288,270 viewers

LIVE broadcast records at nSport + in the 2019 season:

WROZIE (14/04/2019) 206,772
ZIEGOR (28/07/2019) 203,859

In cooperation with Wirtualna Polska Sportowe Fakty, the "Without Brake" program, run by Dariusz Ostafiński and Jarosław Galewski, recorded 8,161,147 plays (21 LIVE magazines) on the internet. The great added value of "Without Brakes" was the fact that it could be viewed directly on the homepage of Wirtualna Polska (wp.pl). In total, until October 1, 2019, in cooperation with PGE Ekstraliga and Wirtualna Polska, 389 video materials were broadcast regarding the games of the best speedway league in the world.

Invariably, PGE Ekstraliga games were very popular directly at stadiums. A total of 692,129 spectators watched 64 matches of the last season. This gave an average of 10,815 spectators. Considering Friday's matches, 283,895 spectators watched them (9,789 on average). On Sunday, in turn, it was even better: 408,234 spectators (in total) and 11,663 (on average)

In the ranking of the percentage filling stadiums at PGE Ekstralig matches, SPEED CAR Motor Lublin turned out to be the clear leader, which had a set of spectators at all matches.

Percentage filling of PGE Ekstraliga 2019 stadiums:

Lublin 100%

Sportowefakty article on how the Nice Polska teams could look in 2020- some signings are done and dusted, others are speculation.

Torun will romp that league with those lineups.  Fear for Lokomotiv Daugavpils.
