How much Family does Freddie have in Andorra (other then Carolina which I assume is coming along to Poland)? He was only going to do Poland + GP anyway so it isn't the same as if Nicki would have moved to Poland he would have to leave his kids and family behind.

New decision today. All competive motorcycle sport (governed by Svemo) is cancelled until further notice. Training and membership/board meetings are still allowed though. https://www.svemo.se/Nyheter/forbundsnyheter/nyttbeslutfransvemosstyrelseomattalltavlingsverksamhetinomsvemostallsin?fbclid=IwAR1VwMyM94rowSuDtH1xHCgRk60-D_cyzPTqCzWEAAByfogr5ledNmsq5nA#.XoSgVN4rbX8.facebook

Svemo have issued a ban from riders from other countries coming to Sweden to participate in activities (mainly motocross). Apparently riders from Denmark have ignored the travel ban and travelled to Sweden to participate in activities. The same goes for Swedish riders who are not allowed to leave the country to participate in activities in other countries. https://www.svemo.se/Nyheter/forbundsnyheter/forbudforforarefrandanmarkochovrigalanderattdeltaiverksamhetisverige?fbclid=IwAR3PearbbqBwURBRkUU3pWQW8lqiy3yw8slJLetdG7PO9bUrfhbWxgEi9aU#.XoMmZhTIPQo.facebook

The Swedish elitserien teams have decided to postpone the start of the season to 2 June (4 weeks) . There will be no quarter finals either. Other changes are an increase of number of transfer cards from 3 to 7 and the average floor limit has been powered to 8.000 from 8.500. https://www.elitspeedway.com/artikel/lfxwak87i-21mi1/framflyttad-sasongsstart-och-nya-regler-i-bauhaus-ligan-i-speedway

There might be an announcements on Thursday on how the clubs aim to handle the Covid-19 situation. https://sverigesradio.se/sida/artikel.aspx?programid=86&artikel=7437052

No decision yet on how to handle the Covid-19 situation except that there won't be meetings run without spectators. Problems mentioned are also quarantine of riders / people that traveöl between countries. A rider cannot go ride in different countries if they have to spend a week in quarantine each time. https://www.elitspeedway.com/artikel/p8omak806-21mi1/ess-vi-kommer-inte-att-kora-utan-publik

I haven't added them to the main post yet (May was far away in December). In the mean time fixtures are listed here:

Lejonen will use on their transfer cards to bring in Piotr Pawlicki after round 2.

Nothing officially decided yet but there are apparently plans that the 2021 Individual SM-final will be a part of "Sm-veckan" (Swedish championship week). Sm-veckan is a like a national mini olympics where lots of sports come together and have their Swedish championship in the same city during one week. SM-veckan 2021 is held at Linköping (Filbyterna's hometown) and if the plans become reality the speedway final would be shown live on SVT (Swedish equivalent of BBC).

Tomorrows Swedish final at Örnsköldsvik has been cancelled due to weather.

Construction retail store chain Bauhaus have bought the naming rights for Elitserien for 2020. The new league name will be BAUHAUS-ligan. https://www.dagensvimmerby.se/sport/speedway/e/52742/har-ar-nya-namnet-pa-elitserien-i-speedway/

Yes they are.

A correct prediction. Schedule for Elitserien was announced today. Pretty much the same kind of schedule as this year with Tuesday as the main day and an extra meeting on Thursdays. However no news about if ESS play will have live streaming or if that only will be on C-mores own streaming platform. https://www.elitspeedway.com/artikel/a1l7ak3si-21mi1/sa-kors-elitserien-2020 https://www.elitspeedway.com/spelschema/ess_2020_regular The meetings for the first two weeks: Round 1 2020-05-05: Piraterna - Lejonen 2020-05-05: Vetlanda - Masarna 2020-05-05: Indianerna - Västervik 2020-05-05: Smederna - Dackarna 2020-05-07: Lejonen - Rospiggarna Round 2 2020-05-12: Västervik - Smederna 2020-05-12: Masarna - Indianerna 2020-05-12: Lejonen - Vetlanda 2020-05-12: Rospiggarna - Piraterna' 2020-05-14: Piraterna - Masarna

Rospiggarna have signed Jason Jørgensen which means that Ryan Douglas won't be registered with the squad initially.

MIkael Karlsson is new team manager for Sweden U21 national team. https://www.svemo.se/Nyheter/Speedway/nyforbundskaptenforjuniorernaispeedway

Daniel Davidsson is the final name for Piraterna. Apparently Greg have stated that he can't sign with a club at the moment due to his family situation. For 2020 transfer windows have been scrapped and replaces by transfer cards allowing teams to make three changes during the season from round 3 to when a team have completed 11 meetings.

Miedzinki have signed with Rospiggarna.

Piraterna have announced three more signings. Josh Grajczonek Grzegorz Walasek Thomasz Gapinski
