Elitserien Round 1

Vargarna are doing very well away at Kumla, vs. Indianerna.

 

Antonio led before Rico and Kim N but his chain broke in the final bend and 5-1 to Vargarna who now leads with 29-25.

Heat 13, Antonio and Bjerre vs Nicki and PK;

 

Antonio-EF at the start and Bjerre passed by PK on lap 3.

 

Vargarna have defeated Indianerna. Quite a big surprise as everyone expected (including me) that Indianerna would steam roll Vargarna.

But it just shows that anything can happen in speedway and that top paid stars like Antonio need to make sure that their equipment are very reliable.

Two MF's are of course not acceptable from Antonio.

 

Valsarna also won their meeting, 50-40 vs Västervik.

Grigorij Laguta was together with Artem Laguta and Krzysztof Buczkowski the biggest contributors.

Couple of quick questions:

 

1. Do bonus points still count for the aggregate winner, adding to the league total?

2. What's the rule on tactical rides/joker? After 10 down & 1 per meeting?

3. And finally what's the ruling on when a rider can be replaced in a meeting and who by?

4. Just come up with another...I see Nicki P & Pavlic aren't at #1 but is 1st in the averages, so is the riding order completely the team's choice (bar the 2 reserves)?

Thanks

1. only the aggregated team bonus point counts, rider bonus point have been removed.

2. 6p down and as many times as you got riders. Also not available until after heat 5 or 6. Only tactical substitute, no jokers.

3. same as nr 3, with a few exceptions. the mandatory U21 rider have 3 minimum rides and reserves got maximum 6 rides.

reserves can replace anyone anytime. Tactical substitutes are not allowed in heat 11.

I don't remember the new rules for R/R though.

4. yeah that is correct.
