New Scienc, it is not really a new idea. It was used once or twice before it was changed to the final.

The difference was that, apart from Fredrik's TT, Sweden didn't have a single 3rd or 4th place. When an Australian rider won a heat, a Swedish rider minimized the point loss by finishing 2nd. Australia lost lots of valuable points to USA and Germany. However the real "secret" behind the victory is team manager Morgan Andersson.

From what I have read, Visas have already been sorted.

Anyway heat 16 more than enough made up for heat 14.

Doyle initiated the not racing par not Jonsson.

It does not. It says: quote from http://www.fim-live.com/en/library/download/57330/no_cache/1/ (078.1.2 The Semi finals are not the same as race off.

Results: 1. Jonsson 2. Lindbäck 3. Nilsson https://ta.svemo.se/Public/Pages/Competition/IndividualDrivingSchedule/CompetitionLiveResult.aspx?Branch=Speedway&Columns=CompetitionInfo,Branch,Name,Arena,Organizer,FromDateShort&Datefilter=Today&pagesize=10&CompetitionId=7303&ShowAll=true

They already are qualified for the semi (event 1) . The race off is not a semi final, event 1 and 2 are.

No, not even close.

You didn't dream, there is a new format this year. See the first post of the stickied thread.

The rremaining rounds; Round 12 (August 2nd) Piraterna – Ikaros Smederna 1 Lejonen – Elit Vetlanda 2 Masarna – Rospiggarna 1 Dackarna – Indianerna 1 Round 13 (August 9th) Rospiggarna – Indianerna 1 Elit Vetlanda – Masarna 1 Ikaros Smederna – Lejonen 1 Piraterna – Dackarna 1 Round 14 (August 16th) Lejonen – Piraterna 2 Masarna – Ikaros Smederna 1 Indianerna – Elit Vetlanda 1 Dackarna – Rospiggarna 1 Predictions 1 = home victory, 2 = away victory. That would make: Piraterna 25+aaggregated bonus points. Rospiggarna 24 Masarna 19 Dackarna 19 Indianerna 17 Piraterna against Rospiggarna in the final. I think Rospiggarna should be cconsidered favourites due to stronger reserves.

A long career have reached it's end. Magnus "Zorro" Zetterström have announced that he will retire after this season. http://ekuriren.se/sport/1.4222396--zorro-slutar-efter-sasongen-hade-dromt-om-ett-lag-sm-guld

Palovaara is nominated to ride as R/R, then Greg replaces him as a tactical substitute. This allows Greg to be used as RR twice rather than once.

Tbh, can't see us winning this one. Dackarna have a pretty good team. Better than Vetlanda last week at least.

"Jaroslaw Hampel back on track!". He did a practice session yesterday. 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%2F616406%2Fjaroslaw-hampel-znow-na-torze&edit-text=

It was an open meeting at Västervik called Toyota open. http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/2016/06/29/liveuppdatering-toyota-open/

I think that BSPA don't allow British riders to enter. IMO the SEC would be a good series for Lambert to get some international experience.

A polish article from today. http://m.przegladsportowy.pl/zuzel/grand-prix,hampel-nie-straci-miejsca-w-grand-prix,artykul,700916,1,985.html Hampel obviously have the right to his place but FIM wants to know when Hampel plans to return since it is not ok towards Lindgren for Jarek to wait until the last minute to decide if he can ride or not in the gp.

It started raining after heat 14 and they decided to wait for it to stop and then do the last heat. Meeting have ended now. Dackarna won 46-44.

That is how it works. KK can only blame himself if agreeing to be a back-up rider instead of signing with another club at which me might have gotten more riding opportunities.As I said it is down to the riders themselves to decide where they want to ride. If riders X thinks team B's offer (payrate/riding opportunities ) is better then team A's then don't complain if you sign with team A.

...and both Lagutas who have a meeting in Russia.

Apparently riders are willing to sign for Swedish and Polish clubs without being guaranteed neither payment or riding opportunities. If you look at Masarna, only two riders have ridden in all of Masarna's meetings: https://ta.svemo.se/Public/Pages/TeamSections.aspx?Branch=Speedway&Season=2016&Serie=Elitserien&PageType=Sections&pagesize=10&TeamId=519 The same goes for Rospiggarna (and every other team): https://ta.svemo.se/Public/Pages/TeamSections.aspx?Branch=Speedway&Season=2016&Serie=Elitserien&PageType=Sections&pagesize=10&TeamId=523 Of course riders are not happy to be sidlined for a meeting but they still accepts it since it is better then to not do any meetings at all.

Riders sign a contract in which they commit to be at team X's exclusive disposal (for that league) during the length of the contract (usually 1-2 seasons). Need to make it more complicated then it already is. Possible some riders (like Laguta's, Nicki, Holder, Tai and etc) are expecting a signing bonus but no rider will get paid when they are not riding, the opposite would be financial suicide by any team.
