Armadno said that Speedwayracing that they were squeezed from two directions, from BSI who thought that the FIM did not full fill their part of the contract if the FIM allows a second transcontinental championship series The other side was European labour laws. So there is no doubt IMO that BSI wanted FIM to act, otherwise Armando would not have said what he did. And to squeeze something you need to apply pressure. In the end I don't think it matters which phrasing they use, It would still be against EU-labour laws especially since the riders are not employed by FIM/BSI/One Sport I think the SGP needs a major overhaul, there haven't been much changes to it since it started. The only change is heat schedule and that all points count.

So you say that Armando Castagna is lying? Well Liam G have a valid point there, Philip R never ever seems to write anything negative about BSI and always seems to take BSI's side even when the BSI is to blame (like Cardiff last year). His posts sometimes looks more like a BSI press release then posts from an independent speedway writer.

You and your friends at BSI can keep telling yourself that, while most of us others can see that BSI are the ones that have been pulling the strings behind the scenes.

Results from Eskilstuna 80cc team cup day 2: Lineups for tomorrow's pre-season meeting between Indianerna and Smederna: Indianerna: Piotr Swiderski, Antonio Lindbäck, Piotr Protasiewicz, Cameron Woodward, Fredrik Lindgren, Mikael Max, Joel Andersson, Freddy Godlund. Smederna: Peter Karlsson Linus Eklöf Mikkel Michelsen Magnus Zetterström Grzegorz Zengota Oliver Berntzon Daniel Henderson

Nope, they intended to do that but it would violate European labour laws which grants free movement for EU citizens within the European union, which means it is illegal and therefore they cannot make such decisions.

Smolinski? I think you mean Miedzinski?

Smolinski has some sort of controlled ignition available (and not disallowed) in NZ but did not use it and his bike were checked and nothing compromising was found. It was a loop hole that the FIM have fixed now by banning controlled ignition. No I meant for the entire season, a bit to early to jump the conclusions for the entire season already.

Perhaps a bit too early to judge him? Besides looking back the past 10 years or so, it haven't been many cases of the defending champion winning the title again.

Yeah you are probably right, I didn't pay much attention in the beginning.

No there weren't really much of a winter this time. and the weather was much warmer the normal and the past week has been warm and sunny. Southern Sweden already have summer, several weeks early.

Well they did mention how good the build up to this gp had been among the fans.

It is blocked in countries where SGP is being shown on tv.

There will be a pre-season "friendly" meeting between Indianerna and Smederna on Tuesday next week. The meeting is held at Indianerna's track Sannahed in Sannahed, Kumla. Lineup: Smederna: 1. Peter Karlsson 2. Linus Eklöf 3. Mikkel Michelsen 4. Magnus Zetterström 5. Grzegorz Zengota 6. Oliver Berntzon 7. Daniel Henderson For Smederna, Laguta is doing rehab, while Kenni, Gzregorz and Kjastas have meetings elsewhere.

Draw will be made at 16.00 local time which is just a few minutes away. will be available at http://speedwaygp.com/draw/86

The following Swedish riders have been nominated for the qualification to next years SEC: Daniel Nermark (Krsko, Slovenia) Dennis Andersson (Daugavpils, Latvia) Jonas Davidsson (Zarnovica, Slovakia) http://www.svemo.se/sv/Grenar/Speedway/Nyheter/NomineringartillVMEMKval/

Linus Sundström will be the Swedish rider in Berwick.

Not stories, official decision from FIM about controlled ignition, which apparently was not against the rules (although most likely a loophole?). However the FIM have updated the technical regulations so that such controlled ignition systems is no longer allowed. http://www.speedwaybestpairs.com/eng/news__116

Yeah the track is 80cc only, at the moment there is no plans to build a 500cc track as well since it's too expensive to build it and because is probably isn't economically possible to support a 500cc team at Gotland. I had a look around on their website but there aren't much info or pictures so don't know the actual status of the track. From what I have understand the club's members/volunteers have done almost all work themselves during the build process to keep the cost down. --- On a different matter: an interview with Anders Mellgren. http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/elitserien/anders-mellgren-jag-siktar-pa-en-comeback-i-ar/

I say good luck to all and most important no injuries please.
