  1. It has been talked about before: http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=78495 http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=80154 Concussion are also a quite a big problem in the NHL where many players have had to retire early due to concussion problems. http://www.sportingnews.com/photos/4634203-nhl-career-ending-concussions-photos-eric-lindros-marc-savard-scott-stevens-paul-kariya-pat-lafontaine/slide/297658 Of those who still are active. Sidney Crosby is the most well known player to have repeated problems with concussion. http://www.ctvnews.ca/health/ottawa-doctor-adopts-crosby-concussion-treatment-1.2600902 http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/concussion-turning-point-1.3336600
  2. Mikkel Michelsen joins Tarnow for 2016: https://www.instagram.com/p/_JqvRJwtZD/
  3. Tickets for Målilla GP will go on sale next week. https://mobile.twitter.com/DackarnaMalilla/status/675205399814021120
  4. Jonsson to Rybnik is confirmed. http://norrteljetidning.se/sport/1.3348254-forandringarnas-tid-for-andreas-jonsson
  5. According to a new article on Sfy (if translation is somewhat correct), the legal matters is also that he is accused of beating and causing injury on someone. https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=sv&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fsportowefakty.wp.pl%2Fzuzel%2F565680%2Fdwa-postepowania-przeciwko-piotrowi-pawlickiemu&edit-text=
  6. Zenit, Greg H will likely ride for Torun from what I have read.
  7. Correct name is Martin Haarahiltunen (my previous link had it spelled wrong). He is a 24/25-year old from Örnsköldsvik (northern Swedish east coast), It seems that he is a newbie when it comes to ice racing. http://www.allehanda.se/sport/motor/sm-final-vantar-for-haarahiltunen http://www.racemagazine.se/isracing/sm-finalen-mer-oviss-an-nagonsin/ Name is Finnish so probably Finnish parents or grand/grand grand parents. Many Finnish refugees (particular children) came to Sweden during WW2. Then during the 70's a new wave of Finnish immigrants came to Sweden to work in the industry which needed manpower.
  8. That is correct. Next year Piotr Pawlicki will be 22 and Bartosz Zmarzlik will be doing his last season as U21.
  9. R&R quite possible but you also have to have in mind that the riders ride much less meetings in Sweden/Poland compared to UK. In Elitserien (excluding "play offs") there is a potential of 16 meetings / season so compared on a season total the difference is probably smaller then what it might look like if you look at the points money.only.
  10. Esbjerg's squad is complete; A: Niels-Kristian Iversen A: Patryk Dudek B: Mikkel Bech Jensen (Kaptajn) B: Rene Bach B: Brady Kurtz B: Piotr Swiderski C: Jesper Søgaard C: Damian Adamczak D: Jonas Jensen D: Kasper Andersen D: Patrick Hansen http://esbjergmotorsport.com/nyheder/news/det-er-med-stor-tilfredshed-esbjerg-motorsport-elite-nu-kan-praesentere-esbjerg-vikings-2016/
  11. Swedish nominations for the world ch. qualies.: Ylitornio, Finland 9 January Daniel Henderson, Strömsunds MC Jimmy Olsén, Strömsunds MC Östersund, Sweden 15 January Per-Anders Lindström, Jämtlands MK Niklas Kallin Svensson, ÖMK Rundbana Ove Ledström, ÖMK Rundbana Track reserves Östersund Martin Haarahiltunen, ÖMK Rundbana Viktor Svensson, Bollnäs MK Svemo have seeded Stefan Svensson to the qualies final at Strömsund. http://ikarossmederna.se/henderson-nominerad-till-vm-kval/ http://www.svemo.se/sv/Grenar/Isracing/Nyheter/NomineringavforaretillFIMIceSpeedwayGladiatorsVMkvaliIsracing2016/
  12. This article gives you an idea of the approximate salary for top riders. https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=sv&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fsportowefakty.wp.pl%2Fzuzel%2F549274%2Fjaroslaw-hampel-walczy-o-kase-z-falubazu-moze-stracic-prawie-pol-miliona-zlotych&edit-text= The article "assumes" that Hampel for 2015 were paid some 850'000 zloty (~£140'000GBP) as a fixed sum and on top of that earns 5000 zloty (£820GBP) per point. Imo I think that at least the points money in reality are slightly higher then assumed by Sportowefakty. I also think we can assume that riders like Emil, Nicki, Greg and Tai, likely earns more then Hampel. So I don't know but maybe 7-8-thousand for those 4 riders?
  13. "Who will answer for the debts of bankrupt clubs?" https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=sv&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fsportowefakty.wp.pl%2Fzuzel%2F563845%2Fkto-odpowie-za-dlugi-upadlych-klubow&edit-text=
  14. Greg will likely ride for Torun next year. Confirmation will be announced after Greg have talked to sponsors in Torun. https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=sv&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fsportowefakty.wp.pl%2Fzuzel%2F563850%2Fgreg-hancok-bedzie-startowal-w-toruniu&edit-text=
  15. Yep Zorro signed for another season with Smederna and Maksim Bogdanovs signed for Indianerna. That should mean that all squads now are complete.
  16. FIM Europe calendar: https://translate.google.com/translate?depth=1&nv=1&rurl=translate.google.dk&sl=pl&tl=en&u=http://m.sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/563745/znamy-kalendarz-mistrzostw-europy-tylko-final-sec-w-polsce
  17. Joonas Kylmökorpi have signed for Masarna and I certain that Zorro have signed with Smederna although it is not official yet. http://www.dt.se/sport/motor/kylmakorpi-klar-for-masarna
  18. Valsarna have made one change already. Damian Balinski have had to change his mind on riding in Sweden and he is replaced by Ludvig Lindgren. http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/2015/11/30/lindgren-in-balinski-ut-i-valsarna/
  19. According to this article, the city of Rzeszów's financial support to the speedway team was not enough for Stali Rzeszów to pay all their bets and therefor bankruptcy is becoming more likely. https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=sv&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fsportowefakty.wp.pl%2Fzuzel%2F563648%2Fdramatyczna-sytuacja-stali-rzeszow-miasto-nie-pokryje-calosci-dlugu&edit-text=
  20. Robert Lambert have signed with Masarna. http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/2015/11/29/lambert-klar-for-masarna/
  21. Grigorij Laguta have re-signed for another season at Smederna. http://ikarossmederna.se/publikfavoriten-stannar-i-eskilstuna/ This will be he is 4th consecutive season with Smederna.
  22. In Sweden Viasat/Tv10 have/had the rights for Polish EL but this season they only bothered to show the semifinal and the final.
  23. Kauko Nieminen have signed with Rospiggarna. http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/2015/11/25/nieminen-klar-for-rospiggarna/
  24. What I think the OP meant was a blank race card like this: http://www.mediafire.com/view/hq5xgd1bg2gz5z4/Blank_Heat_schedule_ES.AS.pdf but for the Russian league meetings.
