Anders 0 Posted April 15, 2009 (edited) All league rounds for Elitserien will likely be covered by an individual thread for each round, but I thought it would be an idea to post general news for Swedish speedway in a special thread, just like last year. On Friday, the 17th of April, the Swedish season starts with the traditional Vetlanda Lagcup (Vetlanda 4 Team Tournament), with 12 teams over 3 qualifying meetings on Friday and 3 finals on Saturday. All meetings, with the exception of the C-final, will be covered live by the Elit Vetlanda website, www.elitvetlanda.se. Line-ups for the qualifiers on Friday are available on Elit Vetlanda's website. Among the riders on show in the three qualifiers are World Champion Nicki Pedersen for Lejonen, David Ruud for the same team, Henrik Gustafsson guesting for Griparna, Czech GP Wild Card Matej Kus for Vargarna, and several current or former British league riders, such as Patrick Hougaard, Nicolai Klindt and Sebastian Aldén, no mention a few of them...
