Won't ride. They're flying off to Togliatti tomorrow. but apparently Doyle is claimed to have promised to ride. we'll see though. The most silly thing is Västervik is claiming that Lindgren is "injured" (he needs to be "rested"). Total farce. I hope R/R is rejected. https://www.dagensvimmerby.se/sport/speedway/e/100169/vastervik-saknar-flera-nyckelforare-i-svar-bortamatch/

No he isn't, unless something happened after he rode for Team Rapid 4 days ago. He had a crash a few weeks ago but nothing serious and after a few days rest he was back at it. https://ta.svemo.se/Public/Pages/Competition/DrivingSchedule/CompetitionHeatSchema.aspx?Branch=Speedway&Season=2021&Serie=Allsvenskan&Resultfilter=APPROVED&Columns=FromDateShort,Name,HeatSchema,HeatResult&pagesize=20&CompetitionId=12427

No Emil for Rospiggarna, http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/ingen-sayfutdinov-i-rospiggarna/

Morgan Andersson confirmed a week ago that Lindgren isn't available. https://www.dagensvastervik.se/sport/speedway/e/99831/vastervik-saknar-vm-tvaan-mycket-irriterad-pa-bsi/

What line ups do we think we will see for the other nations? Artem for Russia but Emil or Tarasenko? Madsen + Thomsen or Michelsen? For Sweden I'd would think Lindgren + Aspgren + PHB.

There used to be medics on the inner field but I don't know when it changed. I don't think having the medics is always a good idea because on larger tracks it is a long way back to the pit where the ambulance is. There is also a risk with having people on the inside field in case a bike goes out of control like last week at Hallstavik.

Sönderjylland and Region Varde will get one point each from the rained off meeting two days ago as the meeting will not be restaged. https://metalspeedwayleague.dk/ses-og-rve-deler-point/

Lejonen - Masarna is Tuesday's tv-meeting. Followed by Indianerna - Vetlanda next Thursday.

Rospiggarna won the first meeting with 48-42.

5 minutes until first heat.

More track preparation is needed so it will likely be a little more delayed , so no start at 19.30.

it was just mentioned on C-more. Estimated first heat 19.30 Swedish time.

Highlights from yesterday Smederna-Piraterna https://www.elitspeedway.com/play/video/128705?provider=staylive&autoplay=1 Västervik-Lejonen https://www.elitspeedway.com/play/video/128725?provider=staylive&autoplay=1

Mikkel Michelsen has ben announced as the wild card. https://www.speedwaygp.com/news/article/9174/michelsen-makes-early-sgp-comeback

isn't it Dave's job to inform you what teams you are watching? @Dave Goddard not doing his job?

Not surprising if one has been keeping an eye on the radar yesterday and today. Allot of rain over Sannahed. Meanwhile slightly to the north and east here at Smedstadion we have a really lovely blue sky, albeit a bit chilly/autumish.

Smederna have already won. 14 p up after 6 heats and three straight 5-1 (4 in total).

I reckon Masarna are relieved that they don't have a home meeting tonight. https://www.smhi.se/vader/radar-och-satellit/radar-blixt/q/Avesta/2724231#layerselected=5min

Ricky Kling have announced a comeback and will ride for Dackarna, https://vimmerbytidning.se/artikel/han-gor-sensationell-comeback-i-dackarna-serios-satsning/r3zgzqxj

Smederna have decided to let Buczkowski get two meetings so that he will be eligible to ride in the playoffs.

doesn't look that bad now for Smederna - Piraterna, Indianerna-Vetlanda still doubtful.

Weather forecast for Tuesday's meetings Smederna-Piraterna (will be off if forecast is correct) https://www.smhi.se/vader/prognoser/ortsprognoser/q/Eskilstuna/2715953#tab=0,chart=1 Indianerna-Vetlanda https://www.smhi.se/vader/prognoser/ortsprognoser/q/Sannahed/Kumla/2680001 Västervik-Lejonen https://www.smhi.se/vader/prognoser/ortsprognoser/q/Västervik/2664203 TV-meeting should be able to go ahead but the other two are unlikely.

tv-schedule is probably too tight and takes precedence over racing quality.

It's raining heavily in Målilla according to reports on FB and radar doesn't look good either but i think most of it will have passed by 19.00 local time. https://www.smhi.se/vader/radar-och-satellit/radar-blixt/q/Målilla/Hultsfred/2693049
