Rybnik - Bydgoszcz starting time is 14:00 (CET) and seems that it will not be covered live by TVP Sport due to clash with Katowice tennis final. Hopefully next round will be live and at 14:00 as well to avoid clashes with Ekstraliga on nsport.

What? Happy days with daily live coverage of EL. Why do you read my post as any kind of attack on BSPA?

New era in terms of Elite League live coverage! 1 meeting per day in live streaming at Bet365.com (one meeting will be chosen when there are multiple fixtures). Enjoy!

Great news to have GP in Warsaw! Finally. And it is going to be last GP for Tomasz Gollob which will make it great evening for sure. Good job BSI this time.

Double checked the dates. Woffinden/Cook in Torun and Eskilstuna and Woffinden/Harris in Landshut would do no harm to Elite League as mentioned riders have racing-free evenings anyway. As all 3 pair meetings will be live on British Eurosport, potentially thousands of local fans lost a chance to watch British stars in action. That's the way BSPA is saving British speedway...

Yeah, I suggest to inform svt.se that Brits were not allowed by BSI to participate. Isolation must be better for British riders. Thanks to that they will make progress in World Cup.

True. FIM/BSI have to face the fact they are not going to control everyone and everything anymore. BSI started this bloody war but did they win anything?

No idea why BSI has a problem with SEC. Can anyone explain it to me? But when you read comments on Sportowe Fakty, 99% of Polish fans support One Sport in this 'war'. I'm sure if BSI is going to ban GP riders participation in SEC, reaction will be quick. No Ekstraliga riders in GP. Is it really worth it? I believe all BSI is fighting for are some sponsorship deals. Eurosport coverage can't be the case here as BSI was always selling rights to local TV's rather than to open channels.

16 pt lead in GP. Hampel's best score this year 16 and he is not Motoarena specialist. Tai needs a point or two to be world champion and he knows it. That's probably the reason to start in SEC and fight for double crown. Not much risk IMO.

The problem is Roman Karkosik (Unibax Torun owner) is multimillionere who can buy whole league if he wants to. I'm afraid Unibax will pay some small fine (like Rzeszow did earlier in the season in similar situation) and everyone in charge of Polish speedway will pretend that nothing happened. Sad day for Polish speedway.

Hello Ghost is it 20 heats then top 2 to the final and places 3-6 to run off from which the best 2 also makes the final? Thanks in advance

Is Bager really that bad? 1,0,0?

They can pick any option. 90% sure they will pick Sullivan at home and R/R (for Holder) away.

Gollob did the same in Gdansk (first SEC round). On a slick track he is always able to find good setup straight away (actually this days he can only be true himself on a slick tracks, any grip or bumps and no Gollob which is sad). Was is typical Daugavpils ultra slick track during practice? You say Emil tried different lines. Interesting. In last few meetings including Terenzano and Togliatti he was pretty slow and I believe his bikes are better when there is a little bit more grip. IMO the slicker the better for Tai at this stage of the season.

Interesting last round in prospect. Will Bydgoszcz help Wroclaw to stay in Ekstraliga? Hancock in or out? Who will pay him more? Wroclaw to ride or Rzeszow not to ride? Will Leszno help Tarnow to reach playoffs? Gorzow in fine form but are they able to win away by 5+? Falubaz or Wlokniarz? Who will finish regular season on top? Amazing season. And by the way it is also very tense and tight in other leagues too. No clear favs in GB and Sweden!

Ghost if you could get Hammarby lineup for tonight (I'm 100% sure it will be different than the initial one) I will appreciate your help.

Clearly the most interesting meeting is the one in Vastervik. It will decide semifinalist. Home needs to win by 6+ (or by 4 and win race off) to be in the semi. Indianerna - Smederna will decide 4/5 place which is not that important, Vetlanda will walk Hammarby over after tonight's result, Piraterna - Vargarna also not much at stake as Vargarna need a 6+ win plus Vetlanda not to win at home which will not happen. Cmore should go to Vastervik (I know the track there is rubbish, gate and go with no passing at all). Interesting what side will Hammarby take to Vetlanda.

Now or never for Hammarby Speedway! Last in the series table with four points behind Wolves, three games left to run including the last week rained off match against Smiths - location is not optimal for Hammarby Speedway. Now or never is it about home on Gubbängen on Tuesday against league leaders pirates or risk Hammarby to go from the top division. - It is true - we have to win on Tuesday, saying Bajens coach Anders Delight. And there's a lot going for it, the shape of some of the guys are on their way back, the track has been fantastic the last two games and we have two stars that run well in the last two World Cup races in Copenhagen and Terenzano. It is the Danish new signing Kenneth Bjerre he is referring to, the wildcard in Copenhagen, and Leon Madsen, a replacement for the injured Andreas Jonsson, who last Saturday in the Italian GP race made ​​it to the semifinals. And for the first time in a long time can Hammarby pattern a team with three real heat conductors; Kenneth Bjerre, Artem Laguta and Leon Madsen. - It feels really good, says Anders Delight. Both Kenneth Bjerre and Leon Madsen also driven well into leagues is a form curve pointing upward! Preliminary roster available on SVEMO at 21:00 Sunday night! Walasek not mentioned in that interview. Makes me think Hammarby will ride with 3 heat leaders Laguta, Bjerre and Madsen. Walasek for sure should be mentioned as 4th heat leader if fit.

Hi Ghost, pretty sure Walasek was going to miss all remaining Elitserien meetings due to back injury. Are you sure he will ride?

In interview after last meeting in Czestochowa Walasek said that he feels very bad, not comfortable on the bike at all and thinks about his back pain all the time. He suggested that it may be better to finish season now then take more risk riding with injured back. I'm sure there will be huge pressure on him in Rzeszow to ride next 2 home meetings as Rzeszow is in a fight to avoid relegation. IMO he will ride in Ekstraliga only.

R/R for Walasek? Or Artem Laguta to replace him?

What happened to Hammarby? I know Walasek and Artem out but 21-69? I hope they will be relegated. Hate teams that only put good side and fight at home and manipulate avarages by big losses away. Madsen and Bjerre both should have scored double digits on such gating paradise Vastervik track usually is.

Latvians are only good in slick conditions as it is always slick in Daugavpils. You can check for example Bogdanovs scores in Polish 1 Liga away from home. http://speedwayresults.com/rider.php?name=Maksim&surname=Bogdanov
