    Yes, but the league also has Team Denmark and a Team Latvia. https://www.svemo.se/vara-sportgrenar/start-speedway/resultat-speedway/resultat-250cc-speedway

    The 250cc league is a Nordic league, not a Swedish league.
  3. Weather forecasts looks ok for tomorrow evening https://www.smhi.se/vader/q/Målilla/Hultsfred/2693049 https://www.yr.no/nb/værvarsel/timetabell/2-2693049/Sverige/Kalmar/Hultsfreds Kommun/Målilla?i=1
  4. Me too and I think this is an uppgrade in rider quality.
  5. Kim writes on his website that he will do a test on Wednesday to make sure everything feels ok, and then the plan is to ride in Målilla GP. https://www.kimnilssonracing.com/b/positiva-besked-efter-kraschen-i-mariestad

    yeah I know but there was no mention of R/R at first, but it has been confirmed now that they will use R/R for Kubera.

    No, not wrongly set since the measurement tool is just a piece of soliid metal with a fixed size. So most likely it has always been too small or it hss changed size recently. ------- The postponed meeting between Piraterna and Rospiggarna will be held on Tuesday 18 July.

    Västervik statement: https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=pfbid0p5DPeaPvD9MDExcB4bRrSp7wJVY6t83KJSSty3oPAoJh9rrJzrbZbTCP4zeohhnQl&id=100048530876966 Basically they use a fixed size håltolk ( plug gauge?). According to Västervik it was noticed that the gauge fit into the carburettors (=they were believed to be too big)which never happened before.At that point the race management was brought in and the faulty carburettors was locked in for further investigation. The carburettors was brought to manufacturer Mikael Blixt measured them and according to him the carburettors were not oversized According to Blixt and Indianerna carburettor sizes were (in millimetres and I assume limit is 34 mm): 34,051 34,100 33,960 33,990 Also to answer your question #2 @stewmac I don't know but I don't think every bike/engine is checked, but rather random check. [speculation] It could be that someone was suspicious of Kowalski's engines and wanted them checked, isn't be the first time someone wants an opponent bike checked.

    Does Kowalski use Blixt as a tuner? From what I understand from Indianernas post the carbs were checked by blixt.

    Well, it is easy to be fast when you are using oversized carburettors. Kowalski was caught with two oversized carburettors at scrutineering in Västervik today for the meeting between Västervik and Indianerna. The carburettors were confiscated. He was allowed to check in two other carburettors and was allowed to participate in the meeting accordingly to the rules. https://speedwayfans.se/indianforare-ertappad-med-for-stora-forgasare-i-vastervik/

    Doyle was seen in Västervik this morning and Fricke posted RACEDAY on his socials so both should be in the lineup tonight.

    Kim Nilsson had a crash yesterday and scans have revealed a small fracture in one of the neck vertebrae. It will require some more checks to determine full status.

    Peter Ljung announced today that he leaves Lejonen and moves to Piraterna.

    I would imagine that there is allot of pressure on them given that really aren't many Swedish riders around and not many new coming up. Gustav has an average of 0,737/heat which is about 2,5p/meeting. Dont know if was paid by point scored or if he had a fixed sum/meeting. Any how I dont think he earned particular well which makes it hard to keep up with costs which adds to the stress.... Not to be considered fscts. just my opinion and speculation. The only fact is that it's fairly common that riders have a fixed sum per meeting or some kind of ladder payment system.

    Thorssell second after Lindgren and thus he is the wild card for Målilla.
