There is a reason for that as well. His father demanded that his son should get a spot in the World Championship and European Championship ahead of any other German riders, but the DMSB did not grant him his wish. Therefore Bayuer sr. said that his son from now on would ride with an Italian racing license, which would get him what he wants.

Tbf not a good advert for Australian solo speedway, really, and Crump and Williams are dull commentators. There is zero excitement coming over. Give me Pearson & Tatum anytime

Polish Wikipedia with a couple of Pictures of the Stadion RKS Skra Warszawa And here is some info about the History of Speedway in Warsaw (in Polish language) of which google translated the following part relevant to Your inquiry: Warsaw was the host of the first post-war meeting on the Speedway. The opponent of our representation was Czechoslovakia, which at that time was a recognized company on the European tracks. The place of the competition was a 405-meter track "Budowlanych", still under construction. The date September 26, 1948 probably well stuck in the memory of all those who managed to get to the stadium at Wawelska Street. The first steps on the international arena turned out to be successful for Poles. Starting with: Smoczyk, Draga, Jankowski, Kołeczek, Krakowiak, Siekalski, Wąsikowski and Wrocławski, they made a huge sensation, winning 75 - 73 against a reputable international rival. Later the "Budowlanych" track has been the place of international competitions many times. We hosted in Warsaw teams from Sweden, Finland, Austria, the Netherlands and the then professors of the slag, or league teams of the Three Crowns, Monakerna, Getingarna, Indianerna, Kaparna. Monakerna, Getingarna, Indianerna, and Kaparna. The biggest match was undoubtedly played in October 1955 with the English team Belle Vue Manchester, in whose ranks competed the newly minted world champion Peter Craven. During these competitions, Włodzimierz Szwendrowski proved able to "get around" the proud sons of Albion. In a direct clash, he defeated the "wizard of balance", and this only a few weeks after he won the title of world champion. The Warsaw facility was visited by many other speedway aces, such as Nilsson, Pajari, Bishop, Kamper, Fundin, Plekhanov, Wright, Briggs, Moore, Knutsson.

Stadion RKS SKra Warszawa This is the sports Stadium in Warsaw, where the speedway meetings were held from 1948 until 1969, when the cinder track was replaced with an artificial track for athletics. The Stadium has a 35,000 capacity, so I guess that the 50,000 crowd reported for that international speedway meeting in 1956 was a little bit exaggerated (as usual in those days).

There will be no Superprestigio in 2018. After five years in Barcelona this event was set to go to Paris in France on December 15, 2018, but this has now been postponed until 2019 http://superprestigio.fr/

So, riders from just seven European nations have entered this F.I.M. Flat Track World Championship event, but there are no Americans, Canadians, Aussies, Kiwis, Japanese, etc. Considering that the FIM Flat Track World Cup in the past has received next to no media attention, no tv coverage, with only a few hundreds instead of thousands of spectators attending these Events, one has to ask how this has now been given world Championship status. Well, it would perhaps be o.k. to make it a EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP, but for the F.I.M. to call this a World Championship is quite ridiculous. They should rather award the world titel to the annual winner of the American Flat Track series, which is without doubt providing the highest level of flat track racing worldwide. But it is interesting to know that for some years now the F.I.M. has accepted the A.M.A. Supercross series as a world championship. The top Europeans have to enter and go racing in America to fight for the world title in Supercross. This is what should be done with the F.I.M. Flat Track World Championship as well.

Here is the First Test between New Zealand and Australia from Moore Park in Chrischurch

The North American Championship Final is back ! As the first qualifying round for the 2020 SGP series, this event takes place tomorrow at Perris Raceway in California, USA

Even here in Bavaria the SS usually (9 out of 10 times) arrives on Friday, occasioanlly on Saturdays, and very rarely as late as on Tuesday of the following week. There is nothing to complain about.

There is no other Croatian speedway rider. Pavlic is the only one they have.

Taken form the Mildura Motorcycle Club's Website: INTERNATIONAL TEST MATCH SPEEDWAY RETURNS TO MILDURA Mildura’s Olympic Park Speedway will burst into life on Saturday, November 24th, when International Test match Speedway returns to the Iconic venue, when an Australian Select side takes on the ATPI Travel Rest of the World side. It’s a huge coup for the Mildura Motorcycle Club to run a test match in Mildura, with the influx of international riders coming to Mildura and Gillman Speedway the opportunity to put on such a good event was to good to refuse. A team of seven Australian riders will take on a seven man Rest of the World side containing riders from Denmark, England, and New Zealand. Mildura Motorcycle Club Solo Co-Ordinator Ryan Sedgmen said it was a big coup to have test match racing back in Mildura he added ” To organise another international test match style meeting in Mildura is big. Mildura has had test matches in the past in the 70s and 80s which where a big buzz in the town, hopefully with the international flavour and riders from Denmark, England and New Zealand making up the rest of the world side it should create a bit of interest around town.” Riders from both sides will be announced in the coming days and weeks, both teams will be invited and picked by the Mildura Motorcycle club the first name for the Australian side will be announced tomorrow. Keeping with the theme during the winter months as support to the International test match there will be a young guns solo teams match, where the young solo stars of tomorrow will strut there stuff and show the improvement they have made over the winter months.

I wonder how it is possible for an Australian promoter to use the team names of European speedway clubs Swindon and Leszno for a challenge match at Gillman Speedway? The teams that rode in this challenge match in Australia have absolutely nothing to do with Swindon or Leszno, only using their good names. How can this be allowed? https://www.gillmanspeedway.com/news/exciting-end-after-disappointing-start-at-gillman-speedway/ 500cc Solo Teams Match / 17 Nov 2018, Gillman Speedway, Adelaide, SA Leszno Bulls 50: 1-Jaimon Lidsey 11 (3-3-3-2), 2-Dakota Ballantyne 5+2 (1-2*-0-2*), 3-Cooper Riordan 0 (FX-N-N-N), 4-Matias Nielsen 13 (3-2-3-3-2), 5-Robert Branford 9+2 (3-3-1-1*-1*), 6-Kyle Bickley 0 (R-N-N-N), 7-Kenneth Jürgensen 10+1 (3-2*-2-3), Subsitutes: Declan Knowles 1 (0-1), Aden Clare 1 (0-0-1), Steve Graetz 0 (0).

thanks for explaining that, but this is one of the reasons why speedway is not taken as a serious Sport any more

... but the Cricket World Cup in April/May 2019 and the Rugby World Cup in September/October 2019

line-ups for the Nov24 Test Match: AUSTRALIA: Sam Masters (cpt), Jaimon Lidsey, Jordan Stewart, Justin Sedgmen, Cooper Riordan, Zaine Kennedy. Rest of the WORLD: Rob Branford (UK, cpt), Zach Wajtknecht (UK), Tom Brennan (UK), Kyle Bickley (UK), Matias Nielsen (DEN), Kenneth Jürgensen (DEN).

Speedway is best as a team Sport, no doubt about it. The League and International Test Matches is what it makes it so unique and very special as a motorsport. Nowadays we have a full season of league meetings for the club teams, but what I miss most of all is some meaningfull International teams competition, like there was in the 1970s. When I watch the Rugby Union Autumn Test matches just this month, I realise what Speedway is missing out on big time.

FIM should return to the old and trusted format with 18 riders, six per race, and have nine heats, two semis, and one final race at each of the LT World Championship rounds.
